What is the average size of the blues you catch off Gabon?

[skeg]

Their is two regions being mostly fished in Gabon, one North West Of Libreville and one South West of Port Gentil, I fish the lPort Gentil Region.
To my knowledge to date the biggest caught and scaled was by us in late 2006 and marked @ 320KG, that year the average was higer than 2007, no big mamas in 2007 I would have said average in 2006 would have been in the region of 250KG and for 2007 around 175KG, we had a lot of 100Kg passing through... start of this year we have come across two 250KG+ already.

Here you go.
