Description
This giant marlin earned its name after a legendary struggle with one of the realm's most famous fishers. For three days and three nights the grizzled Sea Wolf battled the stubborn marlin, neither showing any sign of yielding, until the old man lost his footing and tumbled into the sea. There he remains to this day─dragged by the marlin, hands still tight around his rod.
