Default Re: Famed Angler Stewart Campbell Pulled Overboard by Marlin

I think sometimes people are to quick to point fingers and second guess, without the experience or knowlege to back up their opinions. I was busy before and really couldn't provide details, I have some time now.The dunking incident occured in 1996. This man was a giant in the sportfishing world, he was the first individual to catch two grander blue marlin, 1141 lbs. and then three days later 1038 lbs. He held 15 light tackle world records, (fishbox and problemfisherman--how many do you have??), he held the record for most giant bluefin tuna caught in one day- 73, He was named to the IGFA Hall of Fame and was an IGFA Trustee. He passed away August 4th, age 79. I met him once, you two need to know more about your hobby before you pass judgement on others.
