Kayak Bluefin

[Sandy]

Pretty darn amazing catch. He caught a 157lb BFT from a 12' kayak off Provincetown after fighting it for 3 hrs, then towed it to shore. > http://www.capecodonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20091106/NEWS/911060327&emailAFriend=1

While I can't help thinking the fisherman is probably lucky to still be alive for a while longer , more power to him if the kayak is NMF/HMS permitted.

I'd sure like to catch a tuna that weighs ~3 x my boat!

Heck, no need for a drag on the reel; just let the tuna tow the kayak! Shades of "The Old Man and the Sea".

My cousin, Capt. Gil Berke, fishes out of Cape Cod. He has encountered this guy, 5 miles off of Stelwagon...in a fog...being towed out to sea by a bluefin...waiting for the fish to die...and then having to paddle all the way in...towing the fish...WOW!

The sharks must be well fed up there to have left that tuna alone for so long.

Lot of seals nearby.
