Hi all.

This may sound like a silly question, but all these huge YFT that i see in the reports being caught, what do you guys do with them? I mean, i would love to be lucky enough to catch one or two in time and enjoy a few steaks but my feezer isn't that big and i would prefer to release them rather than waste 80% of a great fish like that.

If i catch a couple of flatties on the weekend that does me for a week(gotta have red meat some nights :biggrin2: )

Yep not a scrap is wasted in this house our last 40 kg fish was devoured by my family of five in two weeks. There is no better red meat than a tuna steak. I doubt any angler wastes 80% of a great fish like that.

Big families and lots of friends??? Whats the problem??

An 80kg fish can be divided between your family and friends in no time!!!

The :wife:to be, hates fish :wacko: so i guess the boys in the pub will benefit as any family are in UK.

If I ever get one.... I live in hope

cheers!!
