Hi Willer ,
In app. 14 years of spearing in Sodwana Bay I have encountered seven marlin up to 200 kg. , the other five would have been "bad " shots . Will write story next month about the other that didn't get away

This guy really knows spearfishing.Hey Abri i have some wonders about Marlins. Is it true that they attack you with their spears if you don`t stone them?

Drool Drool Drool.
Abri, Can I send a truck load of dynamite to ur place ? You first bomb all the great white, bull, tiger and whatever sharks which can bite my ass......then you invite me spearin in SA. Sorry can load up my photo with the Giant Trevally/Ignobilis, my face already too famous . Let me learn to edit photoshop and change my face to Bradd Pitt's then I will post some. He he he. Sorry no Marlin photo, Miss Marlina maybe...in bikini. Nice fish Abri.....Hhhmm.......when will I ever see and shoot one...but I am afraid it will cut me into pieces with the bill ????? I wonder if those other five Marlins will still be alive if you own an Metal Tech #4.... I am serious. BTW, how close must you get to that Marlin ( let me guess the weight ...... 65kg ? ) to get complete penetration of ur 145cm RA with twin 16. What's the shaft diameter and is it Hawaiian single flopper ? I'm waiting  he he he heIYA

fine fotos, esp. the Terry Maas!
check out my website: www.juprowa.com/kittel click on Fotos, scroll down and you'll find my 200-plus kilo black seabass - - observe the humble arbalete I got him with... (he dragged me around for a while - sort of like waterskiiing behind a slow freight train!) perhaps you want to download it, I don't know how to transmit it to you. have fun! ...peter

Hi Iya and Murat .
As to speared Marlin turning on divers , I have often speared with the likes of Jimmy Uys , The Nielsen brothers and Allan Heydorn ; all current or past Marlin and Sailfish record holders . Have personally speared two Marlin and six Sailies . I have never heard of a case of a billfish turning on a spearo .Have heard of it happening elsewhere , but no confirmed instance , maybe someone on the forum knows of a confirmed case ?  Iya , am embarrassed to admit the marlin only weighed 60 kg.  I speared it with a old RAILLESS 130 cm with a SINGLE 20 mm. band . 7mm spear and single flopper . True , with a longer reach I might have landed some of the others but all present billfish records were speared with similar equipment to mine . Some you win....

that's a fine marlin - any fish of 50m kilos or more ain't small!
I was attacked twice by the same broadbill swordfish BEFORE I even thought of spearing him. Had to frantically fend him off with my flippers and then hightail it to the boat to get my gun. this was in the 70s in the Sea of Cortez(Gulf ofCalifornia), Mexico. I'd like to hear(see!) more of your stuff... ...peter, Last edited by island_sands; April 15th, 2008 at 06:37.

Hi Peter ,
Had a quick look at your site , man , you are living out my dream ! Have always wanted to own a small yacht and just go with the gales , spearing and diving , exploring our oceans .BTW , nice fish , I've had more fish stolen by them than ever taken by sharks . Lived in a marine reserve so not allowed to take them .

sehr schon Herr Kittel.
I've seen black bass that size and larger here off the coast of California. They are characters!, much like a dog too big for the room. Here they are rightfully a protected fish. sven
