On striped marlin my best is ~20 minutes on 20# line, netting 4th place angler in L.A. Billfish tournament.
On salmon it was qualifying for membership in the Tyee Club with 32-1/2# on 16# line.
Spearfishing it was a 34-1/2" sheepshead.
Does this mean you fought the Marlin for 20 minutes before you broke him off or you boated him in 20 minutes? I’m genuinely curious as I have no experience with this type of fishing.
