A hundred miles off Cape Cod, two Massachusetts fishermen pulled from the Atlantic a creature that seemed to belong to another age — a 1,260-pound blue marlin, old enough to have outlived most human endeavors begun in the same decade it was born. The catch set a state record and came within reach of a world mark standing for thirty-four years, while scientists quietly noted that such a fish should not, by the logic of cold northern waters, have been there at all. In the space of three hours and one extraordinary struggle, the ocean offered both a gift and a question.
