Big Tuna at Big Tuna Marine- Last Sunday
There has been some talk of big fish as of late. I know Tracker lost a pig on Sunday.
Here are 2 nice fish Bud, Dave and I landed last Sunday.
After we bled them out the one I’m holding on the left went 38lbs and the one Beer Waggin has tipped the scale at 32.
Great trip Bud, thanks again. This stuff just keeps getting better.
Can’t wait to do it again Brother!

Re: Big Tuna at Big Tuna Marine- Last Sunday
Wow - those are porkers. We had a few in the low 30's last weekend. I need to start weighing some of the bigger ones as the season runs into September. Hopefully it won't be uncommon to find a 40 pounder by then.
That's sure one incredible looking boat. Needs a few more rods and reels though...:grin::grin::grin:

Re: Big Tuna at Big Tuna Marine- Last Sunday
Very nice...
We had a couple that were in the low thirties yesterday. I think the average was around 25.

Re: Big Tuna at Big Tuna Marine- Last Sunday
And sometime the money fish looks like a dollar sign 3 feet from your gunnel, just before it snaps your leader eh tracker?

Re: Big Tuna at Big Tuna Marine- Last Sunday
Nice looking fish guys. Did you catch them on live bait? If so that had to be a fun ride, just slide it into gear and hang on.

Re: Big Tuna at Big Tuna Marine- Last Sunday
Pretty sure that big one went 39 pounds and not 38... But who really cares.
Ooh, my but hurts from sitting on my wallet....

Re: Big Tuna at Big Tuna Marine- Last Sunday
I tuna fished out of Charleston last Sunday and when I was talking with a couple guys that work there and they said someone brought in a 50 pounder!! I never saw it but the guys that told me were reputable.

The white pants make for an excellent back drop during the chaos...but are cool in the summer. I prefer the red so it all blends in!

Nothing wrong with fishing in flops, I do it all the time when it's warm. Even in the warm rain... Shorts on under those bibs too!
