Michael Jordan reappears alongside his son Marcus at an unexpected event following the drug scandal. The atmosphere at the 2025 White Marlin Open in Ocean City, Maryland, was charged with anticipation.

After two days of rough seas that kept the boats docked, the ocean finally calmed and the sun lit up the perfect stage for record-breaking catches.

Among the competitors, one figure drew more attention than any fish, Michael Jordan, ready not just to watch but to compete with his iconic boat, Catch 23.

A comeback that didn’t go unnoticed

Marcus Jordan shared exclusive Instagram images from the sixth day of the competition. Capturing the moment when Catch 23 landed a 180 cm, 32 kg white marlin, caught by angler Trey “Cricket” McMillan. The catch temporarily placed the boat in second place on the leaderboard.

Marcus pride was evident in his posts: “Catch 23, Michael Jordan boat, heading to the White Marlin Open scales!”

However, the real focus wasn’t just on the catch, it was on the joint appearance of father and son after an episode that had dominated headlines weeks earlier.

In Ocean City, the narrative shifted. Far from courtrooms and police lights, Michael Jordan and his son shared smiles. Posed for photos with the crew, and celebrated in an atmosphere of camaraderie and sporting competition.
