Top Lure Action: Giant Explosion in PEI 9/27/10
712lb – 101″ Giant Bluefin Tuna on a Tiagra 50 and 90lb Fluorocarbon Stellwagan Bank Gloucester, MA
Well, Nat and his client Ron had quite the fish yesterday. I will let him fill in the details but after tagging 3 fish in the morning Nat put out the last bait and watched it get devoured by a slob. In just about an hour, which is totally remarkable, Nat harpooned the fish which ended up being 101″ and a whole body weight of 712lbs. A huge congrats to Ron, who did stand up to a giant, and obviously Capt. Nat for this amazing catch. Add to that, the fish was landed with a 12′ 90lb fluorocarbon leader!! Go get ‘em, Derek
