The crew of the fishing charter boat Citation landed a record 880-pound marlin in one of the country's richest deep-sea fishing tournaments, but the fight continues for the $910,000 prize.
    
The boat was disqualified from the 2010 Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament because its Virginia-based first mate did not have a North Carolina fishing license when the fish was hooked.
    
North Carolina's Supreme Court heard an attorney for the boat's owners argue Tuesday the tournament unfairly picked one unclear rule that didn't effect competition.
    
The tournament's attorney said unless contest rules are enforced nothing could prevent a crew from shooting fish with a rifle.
    
The high court also weighs whether a local judge should have decided the case since his former law partner and vacation buddy represented the second-place boat.
