Chris Leppan does it again, and again…

Chris Leppan does it again, and again…

The beautiful sailfish caught by Chris Leppan off Durban North on Thursday, is not what this story is about. No, it’s actually about the black marlin, his second on his kayak in a year, that Chris RELEASED, a week or so before.

Chris has made an outstanding year of 2017, as can be seen from the following gallery…

Releasing billfish is a tricky business at best – the fish needs to be in top shape. But releasing a billfish whilst angling it from a ski – well, that’s a whole nother story!

See a video of Chris’ first attempted marlin release here…

More to follow I am very sure! Nice work Chris!
