Bazaruto Baby Black Marlin - for the fly-fisher in you
These Bazaruto guys have too much fun! Aside from the huge grander class fish that everyone is actually up at Bazauto for, they got these tiny ones (rats), to warm up with.
Each season starts like that. First, these tiny fish pitch up. They swim in the same waters and conditions as the sailfish do around here. Then as the season unfolds, the catches start getting bigger. And bigger...
By the time it's September, we shall start seeing some of the diabolically good footage that Captain Duarte Rato gets each year. Of these big momma fish. That frequent the continental shelf, presumably to hook up and do some breeding.
These big fish are just about always accompanied by a dozen or so suitors. Each vying for attention. And picking up on the scraps left by the big girl. These males don't get over the grander mark. But they can put up a real staunch argument. Even on 80lb tackle.
But those big mommas, they go over the 1000lb mark for sure. Right on up to the 2000lb mark if you are not careful. Even the big 130s can be no match for fish this big. And this powerful. Fights go into the night sometimes!
All these fish are released. Where possible. Duarte and his team are the biggest billfish taggers in Africa by a very long mile. And! Duarte has been awarded a few satellite tags. One went in a medium fish a short while back. And now Duarte is focusing on satellite tagging a big momma. Mean objective pal!
If marlin fishing is your gig, this is the time it all happens. September through November each season. In fact, Duarte signs off in December. For family time!
