That is amazing, the fish and that no one puked looking at the guy in the speedo bending over in front of the other guys.
Two guys caught a blue fin tuna out of a creek near Morehead City (home of Craven Morehead) in a 16 ft jon boat last winter, but it wasn't that big, maybe 80 pounds.

Completely insane! Did you see how low the boat was i the water after they boarded the tuna? Jeez, if there had been any waves at all those guys would have been swamped. What do you think the deal was with the tuna once they got it alongside the boat? It did not appear to have any fight left in it at all. Those crazy european men with their thong bathing suits--never a pretty sight!

hell of a catch there...he could of left the speedo at home though...
COmpltetly bad A$$
But you would think that the whaler would be moving why hooked up, but its just sitting there ???
Somethings not right, I've cought 30l+b stripers on a kayak, and theypull you at least 4 to 6 knots, know a tuna of that size, should be towing that whaler like a SOB? I mean I believe it, but it doesn't seem right. No wake behind the boat? Maybe I should just go have another, and take a look @ the vid in the morning ;D
