Re: Blufin at flinders
HAHAHA Yes, well I was pretty wrapped just to get hooked, followed by extremely devastated that it got off so close. With the buoys, people diving, people fishing and kids swimming, it was not what I expected - but take full responsibility for my terrible action Never had to deal with one of those before!Brett wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2018 12:43 pmMattblack wrote:That's why I didn't get anything!

Clever how they disappear on weekends when I’m fishing those tuna.
Should be called southern bluefin not on weekend tuna or SBNOWT for short
It was posted by tackleworld, sent in by an anonymous person or something.
Watching the video, he was lucky to stay connected as long as he did. He was fairly giving it a hiding, I was surprised it didn't snap just after the video started.purple5ive wrote:dont think he ever had a chance landbased with all those boat moorings and the pier structure itself, but would have been awesome if he landed it.
flinders will be packed this weekend.
And yes, it has taken almost a year to a) find the footage b) find this post ... :super:
