Default Re: Releasing yellowfin tuna

Greetings from South Jersey!

When we used to chunk for bluefins on the Delmarva Lumps, we netted a lot of tunas in our big striped bass net. Grab them with the net, gently place them on the deck, and measure with a seamstress tape. Keepers we bled. Throwbacks we launched headfirst into the ocean.

They swam away, not afraid of the tiger sharks.
