It was about the smallest BF boated. Maybe 150 lbs. I played him for maybe 10 minutes, then my old VN buddy Tom Robinson played him for 10 minutes or so, then Rich had the honors of bringing it to gaff. It was fortunate that we 3 had a chance to play the fish since our BF fishing was cut short. Alan was adjusting the rotation so everyone would have a shot at a BF when we had to head in.
I hope Alan posts the vid of Lee fighting that supercow. You ever heard the story about a monkey and a football???

Hand rolls with all the fix'ns. End results. My daughter in law says she'll bring this every time I catch fish! (Not pictured, nori and sushi rice, strawberry shortcake, vanilla ice cream). I didn't get one but thanks to Ohana I got to enjoy! Thanks everyone!

Hamachi, is the lighter colored meat the tuna belly? Lots of nice marbling.

Mine from Monday 10/5... 226# on the kite with a flying fish. Note the Alan Tani t-shirt too!

Yes, sabaman 1 that is the otoro belly meat of one of the larger bluefin. Even though I didn't catch one, we got to enjoy it thanks to Ohana. Melts like butter. Crazy good! But be careful, all that fatty belly meat expands afterwards. (Or feels like it does). Full.

Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.
