Caught off outer banks, NC. Tuna 9+ feet,
1000 lb. Can't believe they went offshore with single outboard engine. Great catch, lot of steaks and the scraps make the best tuna salad, nothing like bumble bee so much better.
Never attached a file. Hope I did it right.
Good night guys and ladies.I

Thanks for the help Sun. Biggest tuna I ever caught was s 205 lb big eye. Biggest bluefin was under 100 lb. Caught a lot of yellowfin 50-140 lbs. and albacore 30-60 lbs.
Don't think I could handle the giants anymore.

You know they catch fish like that in Texas on their spinning rods. Isn't that right boys?

Prices were down a lot according to wicked tuna. $5-$10 per pound versus $15-$25 previous year. Still amazing fish, great battle and big payday if they sold it

It didn't look like they sold it. Looks like they have it hung up at their house out in the yard or somewhere.
