At 157lbs. it's a Bluefin tuna but not a giant, nice catch from a kayak I suppose.

My left finger sometimes types things that my right finger never would.

This should be interesting on several counts.
1) As a kayak fisherman who has caught tuna on boats, I'd love to understand more about how he fights a fish from such a light platform.

2) There have been many questions raised about the legality of how he catches the fish (e.g., does he essentially land the fish from shore and has he not on at least one occasion handed the rod over to another boat to land the fish? Both are illegal.).

3) Some people feel he is endangering himself thus putting other boats, their captains/crews, and the Coast Guard in a position of having to risk themselves.

I'll be at that talk for sure!

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

A 157 lb tuna is not even close to a giant tuna. More like cookie cutter Chatham fish. Landing from a kayak is cool although he puts himself in a much riskier situation. To each there own.
