Fishing aboard Capt. Tonys Tuna Fishing in PEI Canada we hooked this 900lb Giant Bluefin and filmed as it took a BLISTERING run. I was able to land it on standup in 40mins with 60+ lbs of drag on an 80 Okuma Reel and a Dennis Braid PowerPlay standup rod/harness. I was lucky enough to be able to jump in the water with it for some pictures.

  • we'r targeting giants too, in very deep waters.... i've gone for one, lets see how it goes... will probably get a shimano to go by its side when trolling though...

  • Is that guy wearing the black cap just checking your reel or is he tightening the drag? Also how much reel line do you have on that setup?
