Offshore Big Ass Bluefin on the Malahini

[Corndog]

Yeah so it was last year. But just look at the rod and reel he caught it with!!!! That deserves applause. It's not like the Tanner bank guys using 80-100 lb leader on spectra.
Way to go!.
Hope you caught some this year too.

It was not caught on the spinning Rod. people should read before posting....kind of lessens the Internet service credibility

Wow. Guilty as charged. I didn't read the whole thread since it was over a year old. The pic he posted certainly made it look like that was the gear he used.
Correction. Not landed with the trout gear!
Still a great fish and great job of bringing in the fish.

A super tuff kid that came on 3/4 day boat armed with a two speed and 60 p leader?

Luck is everything I guess

Good going!

Then again--if he planned it, luck had nothin to do with it. Wish we knew more about when/where
