Smile Striped Marlin Mount

Got My marlin mount Shipped up from Mexico Last week and got it on the wall, Cant believe the wife let me put it in the living room, Never thought about doing a fish mount but a few to many beer on the boat, Now that it is here I want MORE !!! Weighed in at 168lbs caught off Cabo San Lucas.

Always wanted to go marlin fishing. Don't think I would keep it but the fight should be epic. Let it go and let someone else fight him again some day.
Nice fish tho.

Beauty. Remember seeing one in Hawaii when I was 5 or so, been on the bucket list ever since.

real or replica? Iirc there are some countries where you can't even bring them in the boat, and others keep every one.
