Re: White Marlin Open (UPDATE PICS)
 

Um might want to check that they don't eat those, they do make some cheap animal foods out of them, they use the ones from the Big Rock in the NC Marine Fishery's to test their food habits and the water enviroment they were in. They have a hugh warning sign in the NC Marine Fishery's to not eat them they are dangerous to consume.
