Cape Cod Tuna
« on: August 12, 2022, 08:46:32 AM »
I was on vacation with the family in Cape Cod last week. Decided to book a last minute tuna charter and was glad I did. The fish was 93 inches. It was an experience of a lifetime. I reeled it in solo it took about 2:15. My arms are still soar a week later lol. The fish had to be sold by law due to the size.

Great Bull!  Do you know the dressed weight?  How much did the captain get per Lb at the sale?

Thanks Appleman, I texted the captain for a dressed weight but did not hear back from him, estimated live weight was 400lbs.
