Its one of the most exhilarating things I have done. The fishery was better last year then the last 20 and this year was better then last year.

They are on their way. I just got a email today that said the season will reopen here for a few days. I would think Cape Cod would be hot about now or off NY. I herd a monster was landed last week 126" here on the East Coast but I have not seen a photo.

That's an awesome looking fish.

We actually landed this tuna hooked as seen. The line went through the mouth and wrapped around the lips then back through the mouth so we were not actually pulling 100% from the hook it’s self.

Nice fish!

Our tuna trip was cancelled this year due to weather.
