What a Fantastic video, Gabe! I have never hooked into a monster like that, every time I heard that reel scream I had to pick my jaw up off the floor, knowing full well how much pressure that drag was putting on that fish! I've seen you tackle big fish before and never tag off, but to watch the boat gymnastics just to bring in all the line it took on that first run, was epic! Something that rarely gets said is how important a skilled Captain is. I dare say with a less experienced Captain this would have been a video of heartbreak, mourning the fish that got away. Luckily though you had The legendary Capt. Bob and his crew, and that fish thread a gauntlet of sharks until it was brought over the rail and in the pail for all of us to drool over! You know that after this there is no going backwards. I've heard some great things about Latham Island for spearing giant tunas. What are your thoughts on a trip to Zanzibar?
ps - It was Amazingly Great to see Joe VT back in his natural habitat! Can't wait to see what insane videos he'll have coming down the pipe!

That won't be your biggest fish ever! One day you will get your biggest. Wished these YF were land-based haha. Rather not spend a grands on these trip lol. But I did know a mullet fisherman caught one in cast net inshore in Clearwater Florida, weird occurrence. It one of these year when it was absolutely bizarre. Catching mahi on the pier which isn't supposed to happen. My buddy got one on the beach. There a story online somewhere about mullet guy catching yellowfin in a cast net

I don't have the palate for any kind of blood, that iron taste does NOT go well with any medical conditions I have. I still would have tried a bite of that heart though. Maybe get a torch and burn it a bit, then bite it. I've seen a video of someone making some instant sashimi from a tuna while out on the ocean, not sure who, DMFD, Kelly or BG, who knows, but I would tear that fresh tuna up! Can't get no fresher than that!

Neat how you know what the fish is thinking i. e. -doesn't even know he is hooked yet-. Several points: Gabe did not catch that tuna. That was a collective activity. The fish stripped so much line because the boat was still moving under power for a minute after the hook up, not that that one couldn't have burnt the drag plate up. It sure liked the shade under the boat. Good job everyone!

I am paralyzed and I-ve been in the chair for going on six years this August I Was shot 10 times while celebrating At a tailgate in Flint Michigan. Since my accident I have been in a lot of pain and really depressed but while watching your videos it takes the pain away and makes me really happy just by watching you guys have fun and enjoying each other-s time as a family and with friends

Thanks for posting the journey. Only a dream for me to ever get to fish those Tuna so I get to live vicariously through videos like this. - I can tell you if I did ever get to do this I would have it in the rod holder for sure but I would take it out for just a second to get my butt kicked and feel that humbling experience.

BUILT D I F F E R E N T. Honestly Gabe taking a shot of straight soy sauce was worse than the heart --- what an awesome memory with you guys. Gabe is the only person I would let rig his own bait and yell at me to grab a gaff -

Are the fish stronger on east than west? I've seen long range videos of ppl pulling 250+ lbs yellowfin on rod and reel without using the pole holders.
I feel like different waters breed different strengths.
