congratulations on the fish, and im sorry for all the negative comments you got from all the wankers on youtube. The fish was not wasted, its not like it was killed to be mounted or anything.

@demonliberal lol..how the heck do you come up with comparing easter island to what i posted has lost me! but if other countrys stayed out of our waters (nz) we would have far more than we could harvest!! even if we were twice as big!! we in new zealand practise sustaining our sea life, it is our culture todo so!

@avau77 That's the old last-tree-on-the-island argument. It may be only one fish that's caught here, but it's still part of the problem: the unsustainable overfishing of this species. That's one less bluefish tuna in the ocean, one less breeding adult, one less link in the foodchain. The fact that industrial fishers are much worse offenders doesn't excuse irresponsible attitudes to New Zealand's oceans and their wildlife.

fuck me theyre big, congrats :D

@drumstokjes Because it is big enough and legal enough to eat. Have you ever heard of SUSHI? Most anglers catch and release. Some deserve a meal. That was enough food for 60 people. About $30,000 dollars worth of prime sashimi. Anglers like this don't decimate the supply. The commercial fishermen do.

new zealanders are far from being a player in sealife depletion..fish is a very small part of our diet as a country compared to asian and middle east, southeast asia,south america,alaska,canada and manymany other countrys, why do you think many of those countrys are poaching our seas....wake up. now if we take the od bull(blue fin) from the sea keep this comment in your head...

That year about 40 where caught from this boat only 5 were killed the rest were tagged. 10 of them were tagged with satellite tracking tags.
the results are on the web site - tag a giant.
