    Excerpt
    When a 45-kilo blue marlin was caught in a coastal village here a few months ago, villagers lined to see the big catch. After all, it has been almost a decade since a full-sized Blue Marlin was seen. A few years back, fish stocks dwindled in Barangay Barrido because of frequent illegal fishing activities. Today, high-value commercial fish such as tanigue, lapu-lapu and blue and black marlin are bountiful.
