OT2, Get yourself a copy of "The Old Man In The Sea" Hemingway's Great Short Story. It's exactly what you describe. Santiago catches a giant Marlin after 84 days of no luck and while towing it home along side his boat sees it devoured by sharks. If you haven't read it or it has been a long time since you should check it out. Another awesome Hemingway Novel is "Islands In The Stream" which was made into a motion picture staring George C Scott as the main character (Hemingway in himself). Both great reads that I always had in my backpack while in Jamaica!!
