An
85-year-old Australian woman said she “didn’t feel 85” when she reeled
in an 849-pound marlin off the north coast of Queensland. Connie Laurie,
a grandmother who said she has been fishing all her life, said she was
on a fishing charter trip during the weekend off the coast of Cooktown
when she caught, and then released, the hefty marlin. “I certainly
didn’t feel 85 when I was bringing it in, I was too busy concentrating
on keeping it on and getting it into the boat,” she said. “I try to stay
active and as I said, I’ve always loved fishing and I want to continue
doing it down on the Gold Coast.”
