Went out east today and pulled the squids around. Low and behold in the 54 degree water came a 64" tuna. Not a bad way to start the day off. Went to weigh it in at Hook-Up but their scale was broken. Guessing weight 150-160pounds. Didn't get a picture of it yet still on ice but will post when I take them. It is good to hear a drag scream again.:kewl: :kewl:

SS I give about 90% of it away to people who want it and keep a little for my family. I will release all the tunas I catch unless someone wants it.

WOW, you are out of control kid. You are all over those tuna you machine you. I hear more of your tuna catches than anyone else and never here of your bass catches, you got it bad.
remind me to never catch one of those, I don't think I can handle it.

Great Job! :btu:

Yep, according to the reports I got yesterday the blue sharks are there. Some boats lost count when they got to about the 20 fish mark. Makos shouldn't be far behind.
