What it takes
Blue marlin fishing is the pinnacle of offshore angling — hours of patience punctuated by explosive strikes and fights that can last over an hour. Kona, Hawaii is the spiritual home of marlin fishing, with fish regularly exceeding 500 lbs. Cabo San Lucas, the Outer Banks, and Costa Rica's Pacific coast offer world-class alternatives. Most charters welcome beginners and provide all tackle. The captain and mate do the technical work — you fight the fish.
