Blue fin toona
Submitted by grahamg on Sat, 2010-05-15 12:55
A couple of Thursdays ago (5th May) the forecast was so good I just had to take the day of work to do some spearing. We headed up to Two Rocks marina, the weather wasnt as good as forecast but ok. The water ranged from filthy to crystal and about 20 degrees. We bagged out on demersals saw some big salmon and managed to pick up a 5kg Blue fin Tuna. I cant tell you how many times ive jumped in on working birds and come up empty handed!! but this time it was worth it,
my first tuna not big, but its a Toona

No hit him in the tail section, stoned him though, they move pretty quick in the water.
