Ken Gargett Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 sent to me by a winemaker mate in south aussie. i'm thinking catch and release looks unlikely, but a seriously good fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disburden Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 That is some serious fish! How did the boat not flip over and capsize the whole crew? Awesome pic, Kenny, need bigger fish pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackFriar Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 best known as sashimi! tuna - possibly bluefin but i am not as familiar with the different species as i would wish. A bluefin like that sells for a very pretty penny in Japan. Or have one helluva block party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cvm4 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Holy Moly!! Did they get it back to shore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Gargett Posted July 14, 2010 Author Share Posted July 14, 2010 had an email from another mate who has seen the photos before. apparently the bloke was fishing solo when he hooked and caught it. could not get it in so called for help. might explain why there is an extra guy in one shot.
