Do you enjoy the sight of a greyhounding white marlin, or a huge blue marlin crashing a teaser? Maybe for you, it's the rainbow
of colors in a dolphin or the unmistakable splash of a tuna bite that gives you goose bumps?
Whatever your fishing passion, the Ocean City Marlin Club is working to create an interest in
our area's sportfishing and to promote the conservation of the sea and Her creatures.
In the last sixty years, the Marlin Club has become a virtual institution in the Ocean City fishing community. We strive
to blend the strong traditions of old Ocean City's fishing pioneers, with those of today's modern
fisherman.
In the summer months, the Club becomes the focal point of the fishing community here in Ocean City.
In the off season, the club sponsors monthly dinners to give fisherman a chance to get together and catch up with friends
when the waters turn too cold to go fishing. Each month features a different menu and the price
varies. In December, the club's holiday affairs are always spectacular and are not to be missed.
Each year the Ocean City Marlin Club celebrates its members fishing accomplishments by awarding them plaques and trophies
to signify their various achievements offshore. These awards aren't made of gold or worth thousands
of dollars. However, if you looked at the awards competition each season, you would think they
were. Besides celebrating a member's specific accomplishment, they also signify the respect and
admiration of fellow fisherman and that, my friends, is priceless.
You don't have to be a fanatical marlin fisherman to win a seasonal award because not all of awards are for billfish. In
fact, we give awards for everything from the largest tuna and shark, to the most unusual catch
of the season. Our gala awards banquet in October is an event you don't want to miss.
It doesn't take an expensive sixty-foot battlewagon, and you don't need to be a world class angler to win an award. You do,
however, need to join the Marlin Club as only our members are eligible. If you would like to
see a list of the official rules and a listing of awards just contact the club.
