Cool! Nice job. How was the battle? Did you use lighter tackle or the big guns?
My juices are starting to flow.

Used light tackle. Actually used my livelining bass gear and some heavy spinng gear (Accurate Boss 665, Thunnus 1600) both rigged with tuf-line and flouro leaders. Headed back as soon as time allows. They'll be around for a couple weeks.

What is the deal with selling - any special permits required?
i would be hard pressed to keep a fish if it was worth that kinda money

Yes, you need a permit....I think in this thread MakoMike posted a link to the web site you need to go to buy a permit.....$26 I think it costs.

If you are going to sell your fish you also need a lot of safety equipment, including Cat I epirb, SOLAS liferaft and flares, survival suits, etc. All together probably cost more than you'll get for any one fish.
The website for permits is Http://www.nmfspermits.com |

There is 1 federal permit just to legally keep a tuna you caught!!! 1 school tuna allowed per day and 1 giant (73 in. and over) per year!
Selling is a whole different story!!!
Different permit, ALL the safety gear mentioned in another reply!!! |

Thanks Ron,
I knew about the pealegic (I know I probably spelled it wrong) species permit.
And I figured there was a much more paperwork to sell them.
