Off to a good start

Took her for a little R&R and a break from reality over the weekend.
Boat ran great and I came home almost as heavy as I left.
84" 248# dressed Solo






I missed the harpoon shot totally and had to lip the thing like a bass! messed up my hand a little but well worth it.
As I was hanging off the transom with this 300# fish by the lip I couldn't reach ANYTHING to gaff it, stab it, lasso it or help me out. I managed to walk it over and open the tuna door where I grabbed the safety strap off of the rod and heaved it thru it's mouth and out it's gills and clipped it back on itself. That's the blue line here
