KONA COAST, Hawaii (MEDIA GENERAL) – The big one didn’t get away from an angler off the Kona coast yesterday.
Guy Kitaoka landed a 1,368 pound marlin.
The 14-and-a-half foot marlin with an 84-inch girth was caught from a 20 foot Grady-White boat.
What makes the catch even more special for Kitaoka is that he turns 58 today.
His daughter, Kellie, says they hooked up to the marlin around 1:00 p.m. and boarded the fish at around 2:30 p.m.
