Thank you for your positive comments, but some corrections need to be made.
There is a Rancho Buna Vista.
However, it is different than Buna Vista Beach Resort (where I was). See my link for YouTube video.
As to Marlin, I was told by everyone that it was a good eating fish. And since it was a legal catch, I feel no regrets as to keeping it. I had no issue with the lodge either. As the picture #8 shows, they have a rope from a structure to hang Marlins for pictures. Next time all Marlins will be released.
To save Marlins, there should not be big money tournaments, or use of any lure/bait that may attract them.
Catch and release just to take pictures puts undo stress on the fish, by building lactic acid in their body.
Chasing Marlin for pictures should be banned worldwide.
Otherwise rest of the suggestions are just lip service.
I also do not want to take a chance of getting hooked by the lure as the live fish thrashes its head about. Ruin an expensive trip.
I could take picture of the lures used, but each captain/guide provides his own lures, so not sure it is useful. Actually, if I had known, I would not have taken a bunch of lures with me last time.
