Capt. Manuel Leal called me on his cell around 9:00 this morning and said they'd just released a marlin on the Capullo. Since they were doing a half day trip I'd assumed that they would be looking for roosterfish or something to eat close in. Turns out the inshore didn't produce much in the first half hour, so they trolled offshore. After about 30 minutes they got to the ledge, around 400 ft., and right off the bat raised a striped marlin. The fish came up on a bridge teaser and they pitched it a ballyhoo with a circle hook on a 30 lb. outfit. 10 minutes later they released the stripey.
