Target barrel tuna off Portland victoria i hooked up to a beast of a tuna at 3.40pm. Fighting well into the darkness and 2.5hrs on the rod i finally for boat the barrel ive been chasing
Way to go. 1. I like how you use the boat to be in forward gear and keeping the boat in a turn to mechanically develop the ‘nose up of the fish’ to gain the line back. I do that here in California especially when solo. 2. The camera is nice to have the newer GoPro level the horizon line. 3. The fish on the deck is no joke to pull off by yourself ! 4. That clicker on the Tiagra is cool even while even in its quiet mode tells a story too. 5. Your freinds on another boat were very good to stick around to get more video of your huge fish. Did you gaff it with a flying gaff? I might suggest you strap (your black magic fish belt / plate) with a safety line in case it (the fish) wants you to join it in the sea…
