Lol, I get that, but to be clear was your lost marlin/lost mind occurrence on 11/10/16, like I speculated, and not 2 months ago? Thanks.
One thing you can always say, you are one of the very few in Socal waters to every hook a Striped Marlin on a kayak, and to fight it for that long is impressive indeed. Congrats on the feat!

I marlin fish with my dad...
For 17 years...in a 24ft skipjack...what poped the hook or the line, you need a big hook but I don't no what size they are using now days...it was at least 25yrs ago I have yet to see a small marlin off San Diego I'm surprised more kayaks arn't hooking up more using live mackerel.
With a boat you use the motor to wind to the fish and then the fish pulls out your line...that's how they catch them on such lite line with a kayak your kind of limited what you can do I released a big hammerhead that took me on a nice kayak ride pulled it up it was as big as my kayak Any way congratulations...sounds like you did everything right maybe you lost it for a good reason tight lines
