Red Bank resident John Andryszewski reeled in a 1,012-pound blue marlin on Monday, July 12 off the coast of Bermuda. He was on a fishing trip sponsored by the Normandy Beach-based construction company Falcon Industries that left out of Hamilton Harbor on Monday morning. Andryszewski battled the fish for nearly three hours, thanks to the captain, Kevin Winter, of the Playmate. If caught in competition, the fish would have been worth $1 million.
As of this week, Andryszewski's catch was the largest blue marlin caught in Bermuda this season, as well as the largest fish this island-fishing community has seen in the last two years.
