:holycrap:

I caught a 70 lb BFT on an Avet HX and Calstar tuna rod and it took me to town. I can't imagine how big a fly setup would have to be to catch a tuna that big.

it was a great day...left out at 5pm...
sabiki rigs for bait on the way out...
perfect weather...
brutus looked like flying into Vegas in the middle of the desert at night...frickin beautiful...
caught YFT and BFT...
at daylight we chummed up some for top water but only hooked up on BFT...
found a rip on the way in and caught a nice wahoo...and all the mahi mahi we wanted...
hit the rigs inside and limited out on red snapper...
absolute memory trip...
