On the fifth and final day of the 50th White Marlin Open, angler John Ols landed the first and only qualifying billfish of the tournament.
Ols’ fish was weighed Friday evening, and then the team had to wait three hours until the fish was declared the winner. It beat last year’s winning blue marlin by more than 100 pounds, and surpassed the record payout of $4.45 million set last year with a 77.5-pound white marlin caught by Jeremy Duffie.
“While there were unofficially 551 white marlin and 46 blue marlin caught, only three billfish were brought in and only two were weighed,” the. “The Chaser out of Manteo, N.C., just missed with a 67.5-pound white marlin [the minimum for weighing is 70 pounds or 70 inches], and the No Limit out of Indian River, DE, brought in a blue marlin that missed our 114” minimum length by two inches, so it was not weighed.
