Hi Guys,
I would like to share with you our latest news from Cape Cod (USA)
Captain Dom Petrarca and crew landed a 400lb + bluefin tuna on the Race Point 250!
claiming the biggest fish ever landed on our line of rods, a big achievement for the angler the captain and for us!

Absolute horse Sami.
How do you get something that big onto a boat of that size?
Or do you tow it in?

[Mark Harris]

Bloody hell! That has to be the absolute limit of a fish that could be landed on spinning set up!

Anyone know what the market value of a such a 200 kg Bluefin would be?

[Ben Lovelace]

I think you need a bigger boat.  I bet the taxidermist freak out.
How long did it take to land this cow and what lure was used?
Congrats to the angler and crew....

Hi Brad,
The whole crew was involved to haul that beast into the boat and they did it from the back, 4 anglers manage to make it happen 
the fish took a RonZ soft bait, i am in my way to the Cape and will report in a couple of days, hopefully luck will smiles at us

I'm not too sure if a horse does that justice ... more like a buffalo

I would say not much as it has not been looked after there is no way that boat has a brine tank so that fish would be cooking its self.
Great fish on spin gear though i  just got a 50kg est fish on pe6 and it took about 20mins
