    How Big is this Yellowfin Tuna?????

    What a great catch for Peter, Peter Jr., Hernando and Carlos our group from Panama City fishing at Panama Sportfishing lodge for the second time in the last 4 months, fishing with Capt. Sergio and Capt. Bartolito aboard the Crazy Talento, our fish catching 31ft. Stamas Center Console , they hooked the fish early in the day at Hannibal Bank hooking a 500lb. Bull Shark at the same time, I don't know how they were able to bring this fish in with a Huge Bull Shark going haywire on the other rod, they lost the shark boat side after fighting for over 1 hour, it took them 1.5 hours to bring this ( I think it's a Cow) YFT in, team effort was needed to reel this fish in, the unfortunate part is the fish was caught early in the day and the fish needed to be cut to fit in the ice chest so it will stay fresh for dinner, the fish length is over 6 ft.?? they also caught some nice Dorados and Snappers , enjoy the pics.

    I'm with Brian....The shot of the Tuna on the leader is SICK. The way the boat is turning and the water churning tells quite a story.
    The other pics are phenominel as well.
    I want to catch one of those mullet Snappers BAD! They look like they would blister a light rod and reel.
    Thanks for sharing.
    The Tuna....Not an ounce under 226!
