Yellowfin
Tuna's are common in the gulf and can reach up to 90 lbs. This Yellow was
about 40 lbs and took a while to bring in. The story I heard was this guy
won the fish cleaning bet with this fish.
The Blackfin Tuna's are plentiful and can be caught by
the dozens behind the shrimp boats drift fishing. It's not uncommon to
run into a school of tuna and boat 50 or more in an hour.

Sometimes you catch so many fish all at once, the deck
hands can't get them all into the cool box and have to pile them up until
the fishing slows down.
