Well done guys, thats a cracker effort from the team.
id love to catch a tuna this size, any bigger i reckon id be water skiing without consenting to it.
yeah the gaff needs to be shortened and i reckon the gaff man will be a lot better at his job instantly

Awsome day. It looks like this coming Saturday the weather is the same!

Apparently the bigger tuna is moving towards east now and will be best fished between Port Fairy and Apollo Bay.
