Tuna on Baitcaster

  Was just one of those days .... StArted slow but once the sun got out from behind the clouds it was all action... Peeled on 50 lb spin gear trolling.???? Bitten off at the Dacron on my wind on??? Dropped fish !!! Lost my favourite lure to yet another toothy this time attacking the clip and swivel..?? Heaps of long tail busting up so I'll chase them round now with only 80 lb overhead ( no thanks ) or  the Barra gear due to Beeing spooled on the spin .... Yep three epic battles later and I finally managed to put one in the boat....  Too much fun
