| Went to the fish house last night to have a drink and decided to stay for dinner. The special was Blue Marlin so I told the manager he was an idiot and walked out. Hate that I won't ever be able to go back.

| Good for you...I'd have done the same. There's just no good reason to harvest Marlin for table fare regardless of what some folks will tell you about the taste. Harry

That sucks that they would stoop to the level of third world countries! When I fish in Mexico(non-tourists areas) they haul it in like it was speckled trout. Nothing against people eating what they have to if they have no choice, but there are alot of species out there to eat other than the depleted ones. I read alot about our hap-hazzard efforts on marine conservation. It's just not working, it seems the only ones that are truly concerned about conservation are the sportfishing community and marine biology professionals. I guess if the politicians had a chance to go out to the last frontier and view these majestic beast in their environment they would put forth a more concerted effort to preserve our fisheries for our grandchildren. Unfortunately some pelagics killed or die during the fight in sportfishing. I have no problem with donating that meat to nonprofit organizations to feed the hungry, but to put in on the menu of one of the most popular restaurants in P'cola is shameful. Sorry for the rant, I am passonite about this subject! Hopefully it is not true that Jim and those guys would really do this, if they did not, please except my apologies for the negative comments.
