I have never targeted them before, and really have no idea what to
expect. One of my concerns...is that I might not have the juice to
finish the job. I have spoken to a charter captain a few years ago
that targets bluefin and asked him how often they have to
intervene or finish the fight for a client. His answer was "too often".
Its not so much the shame of not finishing, but understanding what
sort of exertion is involved with a typical bluefin. The biggest fish
from the tuna family I have tangled with were albacore in the 30#
class. From a boat the biggest fish I have landed was a 45#
striper. From the kayak an 80# thresher.
Is it reasonable for an average person using light tackle to land a
100# bluefin solo , or do you need to be built like an ox?
