ecura Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 (edited) Headed straight out this morning to about 5miles west of browns and set the spread with a plan to hit the 500fa mark and head nth in search of tuna. Water temp was 20.8 but to my amazement about 5miles east of browns the tiagra screemed and we were on. 20 minute fight and we managed to land a yellow fin! It was big too! 54kg on the scales, this is my first yft and something have been chasing for a long time. The fish fell victim to a xrap in blue pilchard. I can't seen to post the pictures from my iPhone. I'll try to work it out Edited June 21, 2014 by Captain Rat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
