Andy Thomossan, the fisherman who caught a record-setting 883-pound blue marlin June 14, said tournament officials stripped the Hatteras-based boat Citation of the title and the $912,825 from the total $1.66 million purse, The Daily News of Jacksonville reported today.

'No record. No money. No fish. No nothing,' Thomossan said, adding that the rules violation was that one crew member didn't have the required fishing license."
