Actually, I was thinking you two could come by and watch the race on MY NEW plasma TV. LOL I figured it out. Blue marlin will prevail over all. Black marlin get bigger, blue marlin are stronger. It's tough though, remember, "pound for pound." Personally, I think a blue gill is tougher, pound for pound, than any Mako or marlin ever thought of being. However, i'm pretty sure the masses won't see it that way. Most will be looking at size and speed. And if you want to get real technical about it, I think the Atlantic Spadefish pulls harder than any other fish out there. Think i'm full of it? A 8 pound spade fish trashed one of my medium action rods a couple of years ago, snapped in half. I've also had them break 20 line like it wasn't crap. I'm talking 6 to 8 pound fish guys. You can't run the drag too loose or they cut you off on the reef. You can run it too tight or they will break you off. No heavy line as they will catch on quick. They are an awesome game fish, and easy to target. [cool]
