CONGRATS on the BIG TUNA

Light gear................Well done!!!

be careful as many a fine angler have said,

"....Once you go BFT..............
you NEVER go back to Striperin'!!"

:claps: :claps: :claps: :claps: :claps:

Ted how long was the fight? how did your arms feel? numb I bet

took about 45 mins..

it was just an entertaining to watch

Pretty sure I was shaking.
Ask Brian. ;)

Those look like Keen's sandals. Pretty nice I think. :btu:

Awesome tuna. Still looking forward to getting out and trying to catch one of my own someday. Thanks for the bloody pics.:)

Ted, What plug you get him on?

Can't remember what it was, but smallish sandeel/halfbeak imitation.

They were VERY picky.
If I had the 14wt flyrod with me (I HAD the big flies too but only my 10wt ticrx with an nv 10/11... rio striper int with 300 yards of 65lb pp... go figure) it would have been on bigtime.

Tuna exploding in between Terry and Brian

This is cute because after they initially put the fish down on my lap it gave a good shake seeing the rail. Yes, 2 people to plop the bastard down, he was definitely pushing over 100. I was NOT letting it go.
