The first boat back to the scales at Ocean City for the White Marlin Open was the Fender Bender out of Virginia Beach. They weighed in an 82.5-pound white marlin that at this point is worth 4.9 million dollars. You can bet that crew is praying for terrible weather for the rest of the week.
Tommy at Lewes Harbour Marina was surprised by a special visitor when country star and Milton native Jimmy Allen stopped by the shop to buy bait.
