Two weeks back got a call from Dan that he was short on crew & needed me to call in sick. Due to a huge survey project that week, I'd have to be on my death bed to get away with missing work, so had to pass. Looks like I missed a pretty good day.

Here is the vid: ‪Giant Bluefin Tuna - July 27, 2011‬&rlm; - YouTube (langauge warning). It runs a bit long, some neat stuff in the 1st 5mins, including the fish on the sounder followed by the strike and @ the 15 minute mark they pick up a third guy 20 miles out, plus Mike the camera man from the 7/2 video gets in on the action, thanks to a Go-Pro he rigged up.

I was able to finally meet up with them that weekend, but we couldn't find our way out of dogtown both days.
