Mine is 160lb. yellow fin, but my moms got me beat with her bluefin caught on 130lb. dacron with no help (tournament rules)
in just under 2hrs. She's holding the rod.

120" length x 82"girth

My mom didn't fish but mine is a 200lb blue fin caught last June at SW corner Stellwagon. First time out in the new boat targeting tuna, trolled using a Penn 80VSW, a single Fisherman's Outfitters 4' spreader bar with 18" pink squid for 15-20 min before the strike. Fight took about 20 min to land the fish.

I'm still holding my breath for my first one. Hopefully this season.

72", I'd guess 220, we never weighed it

Wow....that must have been worth a fortune!!! Where did you catch it?

Not my biggest but probably my most memorable, a 175 lb yellowfin caught off Isle Montousa, Panama. This fish kicked my a$$ six ways to Sunday, the 90* heat and zero wind didn't help either!

EC, great old-school photo, love it.

About 15000 lbs of pure joy !

The Silverline, Most of the procedes went to Dave, His boat, licence ect. I brought the beer and got to fight it, he realy did all the work.

I just like to tell people that then clarify it later.....:jump:

i don't know my wife's like 130#

got a 78" behind a scallop boat - second was a little bigger but we released her once we had the leader as only one over 73". Had plenty of meat that day as we where Tilefishing in the morning in the Baltimore Canyon then headed to the 30 line when one of our friends who runs a scallop boat called us and said the bluefin have been following his rig for 3 days.
