Info from Licensor: "We were enjoying the beach in Coral Bay when a larger fish came in feeding. At first we thought it was a shark, but then we realized it was a billfish. Once it had beached itself, I stopped filming threw my phone up the beach and ran to help it. I knew grabbing the bill would hurt but also knew that's how it needed to be handled for a better recovery to help swim the black marlin back to sea. My friend, Jason, came to help along with another lady. Once the marlin was in deep enough in the water, we let it go. It was then I realized that my hands were cut and stinging like crazy. It was totally worth it and I'd do it again."
