Re: Wicked Tuna Sunday March 17th
Again...great show.
Like everyone...especially the hard core Pin Wheel guys...reminds me of 20 years ago when Darren and I would run 20 to 25 miles in my Mako 20 (really did not care about the weather back then)...we just went. One trip in October (1994 I think?) we had a 125 lb BFT...the Mud Hole...we had three rods out with butterfish baits...40 lb Berkley Big Game line with JT (K Mart) leaders and 6-0 or 7-0 tuna hooks...no flourocarbon back then. We were sleeping and had all three rods go off...two got off and we fought the one for two hours on a Penn 30 with 40 lb line...got off the ball and then harponed it. It had a shark bite on its side (about a month old?)...unreal. The Shannon K was next to us and saw the whole thing. We boated the BFT and it weighed 125 lbs... Ahhhhhhhhhhhh...tuna fishing!! Joe T.
