Big one caught in PV fishing with Many on the Pacifica. Drug us about 6 nm in a L O N G fight. Jill did most of the work (2 hours) and i got to finish the last hour--all stand-up on a 50W.

Marty they have it made on the other coast with those huge yellowfins we got to get over there once...lol
we caught another one just smaller, later in the day. certainly an incredible fishery over there.
The fish was 323 #'s, and a couple hours before i had released a black about 450 #'s on stand-up so i was glad to see her fight it as long as she could. After we boated the tuna the mate looked at Many and us and said "put the baits out?" ...in about 0.1 seconds we all said NO!!!
