Recognized as one of the elite big-game fishing tournaments in the world, the 2015 Emerald Coast Blue Marlin Classic is set to get underway June 17-21, 2015, at the beautiful Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort in the Florida Panhandle. The fishermen aboard a fleet of more than 80 gleaming sport-fishing yachts will be trolling for giant blue marlin, tuna, dolphin and wahoo while vying for a total purse worth an expected $2 million in prize money.
