TUNA

Has anyone trolled ballyhoo for school bluefin tuna? Is it effective? What are some other types of methods for landing SBFT?

I found a BFT trapped in a tidal pool last year Went about 70lbs. Eyes were clear but let ex try some steaks before I ate it, just to be sure it wasn't a sick fish

not the Hg you gotta worry about. Its the histamine. I wouldn't eat that tuna, but hey, thats just me. For that matter, I wouldn't eat anything I found just lying around, let alone fish. Be careful, man.
