bad choice
Went to First Light Anglers seminar early in the year. This video was shown I believe by the federal fisheries officer and he spoke about it after. Not only is it not legal all three people involved ( the cameraman) are being prosecuted for taking this tuna! I had no idea this was illegal! I asked him if it was because they had no license and he said it was illegal even if they had a license! Kind of confusing as rod and reel guys stick them at the boat all the time, is this legal?

My understanding is that BFT can only be taken in a boat with an appropriate license. Taking a BFT by any other means is illegal - including landing one from shore, or say, in the canal like someone did last year.

I'm curious as to how they got that fish corraled in like that . I was disappointed to see them kill it. It would have been cool if they let it go.
Anyway , I understand they need a permit but why is tuno only allowed from a boat? What's the difference whether you are standing in a boat or on the shore?? this is an honest question and not a PITA or anti boat fish question. I just don't understand why it makes a difference where you are standing if you have the permit.

Because of the fact that Tuna are federally managed and how they assign the licenses and track the fish taken.
