    well, one could use an arc dehooker. And I'm not gonna write the IGFA, I'll do you one better, I plan on going to school to become a marine biologist and preserve what I love. I'm not saying that killing that once in a life-time fish is wrong, that fish is most-likely old as hell and only has a year or two left anyway.I wasn't talking about tournaments or a once in a lifetime fish, I'm talking about those guys that go out with their buds or charter boat captains that will kill a billfish for no reason. Don't get me wrong, I love a good ol' bloodbath, but I dont understand a boat with six people coming back with 18 40+ pound tuna. No one eats that much, Take what you need, take a pic and release it for another day. I'm not trying to preach to anyone, but you have to admit, the fishery isn't what it once was

    I been keeping the fishing urges at bay by catching the hoos on my days off that I can't go off shore. I Got about 60 in my freezer now. What is considered a horse ballyhoo how big does it have to be? Just curious.
