Thank you all for your comments.  For those of you who have a recreational permit to catch BFT, this is your last chance to try and hook up a BFT.  Permit expires on the 1st August, 2012

About 35minutes, maybe slightly longer. @moonwalker- there have been much bigger tuna that har been landed on a rod and reel, much much bigger. Go on youtube. Thank you for all your kind comments.

What a whopper! Beautiful fish; Prosit!

Just for curiosity's sake how long would you have taken to land that? (I am completely alien to this type of fishing)

Great fish impressive. That must be in the limit of what a rod/reel can recover or you can get even bigger fish?

Just a number nick. But it's important to register as we are supporting the efforts by the authorities to provide a quota for recreational fishermen.
