interesting new catch

[Squidnation]

BLUEFIN TUNA LANDED BY GRENADA BOAT !! This exciting and rare catch was brought in Sunday 18th July by a Grenadian long line boat - the bluefin tuna weighed 425 lb cleaned (est. 500lb gross). The fish was caught about 35 miles NW of the island and is apparently the first documented capture of this species in Grenada.

Why did this fish show up here at a time when the species has almost made it onto the endangered species list? A chance capture or is there a possible connection to the Gulf oil spill?

Something else to wonder about whilst trolling at the 42nd SIBT January 23-27 2011 !!

Cool but the Gulf spill connection is pretty silly.
