Had an opportunity to do some fishing in the Northeast in Rhode Island and this was the biggest of the day! Might have to make another trip out there for bigger ones!

That was 44" long but didn't have a scale to weight it. It was cpr so no mount. Have to admit it was my first time up there and I might have to make it a once a year thing from now on. Next on my list is to catch a tuna hahah

Picture and measurement is all that is needed for a taxidermist to make a mount for you. Tuna is awesome. I'm considering making my tuna in my pic below a mount.

Thanks guys! My previous best was a 33" from texoma but when I caught this one, man it was a blast reeling it in! I was so tired from reeling him in that I could barely lift him up for a picture. The funny thing is, the guide told me that he had caught some double that size weighing up to 70-80lbs! Was hoping for the one of them but was happy to catch this one. Cigga how big was that tuna in your picture?

Cigga how big was that tuna in your picture? 120 lbs. I didn't get to measure the length but for reference, Im 6ft 2in. And it didn't fit in my 150 qt cooler. LOL
