Learn Why a Boat was DQ'd from the Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament

Captain Greg McCoy piloting the Sensation experienced the highest of highs and lowest of lows during Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament this weekend. McCoy and crew landed a 619.4 pound blue marlin during the Big Rock Blue Marlin tournament Saturday after a six hour battle that lasted into the night. Upon arrival at the dock a crowd cheered as the largest blue marlin of the tournament was hoisted onto the scales. The glory was short lived as it was made clear that the weight was under review due to a possible "Rule 23 violation." In the end, the crew ended up losing over $3 million dollars because the blue marlin had been bitten by a shark and may have been dead before it was landed.
