legend has it he’s still yelling at martin...
that rod holder took a beating
I heard they ended up in Spain by the time it was over.
That was one of the coolest fishing videos I’ve ever seen you guys made it fun and exciting the entire time I’m so glad to see young people enjoy the great outdoors and get up off the couch instead of playing video games great job
yeah they are having a blast and the people in the comments are complaining about every little thing they do
@@ItsMasonMcEvoy porgy fishing would be more suitable for these kids !! Lol !!
Saw an article on CNN but they screwed up the link to this video so I had to find it myself.
Me too! A lot News articles reference a video to watch and sometimes there’s a link that doesn’t do anything or the video unavailable.
“Don’t tell me I can’t come out here and get it done!” He’ll yea boys
Saw an article on MSN with a pic. So glad there is a video. Well done!
In school Monday morning.
"What did you do over the weekend ?"
"Caught a 700 lb tuna."
"Yeah, right."
(shows UA-cam video)
awesome little brothers. good job.
A Japanese sushi guy paid 1.8 million for a 608lb bluefin tuna. I just saw the article online
There a different grades of tuna
Not that fish !! They would have laughed at them !! good for catfood maybe !! Lol !!
@@localguy8 they go by fat content.
Look at where the drag lever is. They had the loosest drag. Below strike 😔
they might’ve had light line on the reel
@@peytonmaloz7293 that makes them even bigger dummies !! Lol !!
If you adjusted the break yet another turn looser you would have added at least one extra reeling-in day....
Those kids got totally screwed on the price for that fish. Even at the lowest average price per pound, that blue-fin would have been worth a minimum of 32000 dollars.
Average last year in Maine was like 3 bucks the market gets flooded
The worth of the fish is in the grade of the meat, they are lucky they didn’t get busted for selling the fish cos they’re not commercial fisherman maybe that’s why they got a lower price.
@WTF Kyle ok, that makes sense. Thanks.
They have there commercial license the market is flooded rn so there is no where to sell them especially due to COVID
Chris, the fish was burnt !! Way too long to land !! Bunch of girls don't cut it !!!
Love it boys!!!..this is how we do!😤👆🍄
I heard they sold it for 2k. Dont these blue fins go for over 100k in markets?
I said the same thing! Definitely worth more
That’s what I said. 2k is a joke
That should go about 20 to 25 usd per pound
They can make this video go viral and get over 1 million views. Yes they gave the fish away for 2k. Good job boys...............
WTF Kyle how come the 600 pound blue fins sell for millions USD in tokyo? What makes those tunas different? Or is it just cause the demand is different?
Great Video! Great Team Work For A Few Adolescents Without Supervision, They'll Be Leaders In The Future! The Best Thing About It, Even With All Their Yelling & Cussing, They Are Out In REAL LIFE Adventures, Dealing With Whatever Mother Natures Adventures Has To Throw At Them Spontaneously, They Teamed-Up & Got It Done...
Hahaha...in my place we call those "knotheads"..lolol
Good job gang 👍👌
very cool...
They got paid yellow fin prices for it.
more like mullet price for it yellowfin is arguably a lot better meat and still sells for a shit load. these kids didn’t even get 4$ a lb. they are dumb kids tho. they could of waited a week till word got out and sold that fish for a 1/4 million but they saw blunt money and took the change. i personally would of paid more for the meat myself just to store at the house
@@rossysossy fish was burnt !! Way too long to land !! Buyers would know that! Get shit for that fish !! Lol !!
late bloomer damn
@@rossysossy i longlined tuna for years out of Hono, yellow fin was always second to big eye and prices reflected that. Of course occasionally market will fetch you a premium but for the most part yellow fin was $2-3 lb.
late bloomer didn’t know that. gotcha
hey i love your fishing vedeo and i love you your cousin james
Ayuh!
jesus boys...put the drag up some....not even near the strike button......
Very nice work guys! 💪💪
Mantap bang
Who ate the heart??
What a damn hysterical screamer... that’s not my definition for enjoying a quiet fishing day in the water.
I don’t want to imagine his noisy first time doing sex...

Tuna prices have been getting worse over the years the average price per pound last year was around 5 dollars and it’s just going to get worse this year
You can’t sell your catch with recreational fishing license. At least here in California.
No you need a tuna permit to sell in Maine
@@codybrown3946 good to know.
i heard you guys only got paid a couple thousand bucks for that fish?! i thought people got like $10 per pound for giant bluefin
Here from Jon B
shame on them for underpaying but same difference for consumers i guess , willing to pitch in more for sustainable source anyways
Aren't these guys worth WAY more than two grand though?? Congrats anyway fellas!!
Yes.that worth over 5 gs
Kickin' ass and takin' Maines
A bluefin tuna that size in Japan would bring 20 to 30k. The market that lowballed the kids know better.
They took advantage of the kids. Thats just wrong. If they have any comon decency they would pay at least 1/2 the fishes value to these kids and not some lowball figure like 2k. If that's a prime fish with the correct fat content it will be on someone's Susi plate next week.
That's not a 2 nah....that's a 4 nah! You can Tuna piano but you can't Tuna fish.
Tuna emang besar²
U have to stand & keep the fish square w/the stern jackoff !! Lol !! Man running the boat is very important !!
Well they landed the fish. Besides, who are you to talk? I bet your largest fish is a 1/2 lb bass.....
@@jimbo7497 i fished w/the best tuna fishermen ever ! The Murray Bros. Boat COOKIE TWO. BESIDES THE FACT THAT I'M A COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN ! THAT'S WHO I AM !! AND U ? LOL !!
late bloomer I don’t see any proof. I could say I’m an astronaut on here and people would believe me.
Mancing Mania Mantapppp
Congrats on the killer tuna boys. But tell kiddo not to yell so damn much.
Might as well use a winch, its not fishing if the rod holder does the work.
Well done Men!
勁！
I’m a cat fisherman and I can’t imagine the poundage of line they used
150 pound test line
Bravo magnifique le mastard 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
They woulda been sick if a shark came up and snatched the whole fucking thing
like JAWS you need a bigger boat
Awesome fish. Too bad they did not immediately bleed the fish and were unable to bring the fish onto the boat so they could properly chill the beast in a very large insulated fish bag with several hundred pounds of ice.. Next time they will be better prepared. I am sure this will not be their last BFT.
I think that’s a record. Need to see the weigh in
Omg, long-haired boy keeps screetching like a 13 year old girl with a mouse down her blouse.
Long haired kid ain’t the one screeching
Can't believe they sold the tuna for only 2k. TWO THOUSAND... Could have EASILY been several hundred thousand depending on who caught this and brought it to shore. Even a million if the tuna is really high quality...
Nope they got paid pretty normal
editing sucks. way to replay a bunch of the same video in a row. nice fish tho goog
In the near future. Those fish wont be getting reeled in. Theyll be extinct from over fishing
This was exiting to watch! Goes to show that teenagers these days do a lot more than sit around complaining, whining and moaning about every little setback they encounter. Wonder if any of you guys have made a living from fishing or just love to go out fishing during weekends and such...?
NICE EFFIN' JOB!!
Norton fish sticks swords and Tyson fish pattys shield and monsters
they were robbed by whoever bought it from them.
All good until the end game.
Well,done boys
too much yelling,......... chill out,............relax..............
I'd give you 10k for it
Good catch ill pay you 2k for it 😇✍💀
#SlackLinesMatter
cono im tight
You could have flown overnight to Japan (with Tuna in cold storage) and brought your whole fam, and come back with money in your pocket after a 2 week Vacation...SMH
Did you want help me?ijust want the fishing rod, i want buy i dont have money, if you present give me a fishing rod i will be lucky i will be happy too pliss give me a fishing rod
I come from indonesia
great English
Why dont you buy a rig so you can go fishing ?,I sware this is a gimme world everyone wsnts something for nothing .Ok yes its great to help someone out but to ask someone to give you a 3000 dollar fishing pole is insane,maybe they dont know how much or what they cost,but thats just plane rude.
Tapi boong yhahhahahha.....hayyyuuuukkkk
Yes or get a job yukyukyuk...
@@kennethgrimes5494 Where do you came from?
That was fun to watch... Young Guns getting it done. he probably got $19 a lbs on that monster
@WTF Kyle fish was burnt. Lucky if they got that !!! Lol !!
Fighting a fish this long burns it out !! Hense, u get shit money for it !! Lol !!
Amateurs !! Lol !!
Fuck yea boys pretty work!
In Japan, they would sometime pay $5000 USD per lb. imagine 700lbs x$5K. Wow they got robbed getting paid $2K for this catch 🤔
3 is pretty normal now a days in Maine
U r saying a 1 pound tuna steak is 5000k?
you have no idea what youre talking about max
The one guys annoying bas hell!!
There's no point in watching these clowns !! The Murray Bros. "Cookie Two" r the best tuna fishermen period !! Watching these clowns can be dangerous if u do things that way !! The Murray Bros. get the fish in less than 30 minutes most always !! Two hrs. & they're still playing this fish ? Lol !!!
It's a 700 pound fish between 3 kids who have spent 16 years on this earth. Get over your toxicity. No need to compare. Boomer.
Plz gift me Rod & Reel plz
actually not a legal catch unless they have a commercial permit, recreational is not allowed any blue fin over 73".
Not a blue fin
They have there commercial license
yes it is a bluefin. why do people post who have no idea what they're talking about.
biden2020
Watching wicked Tuna I've seen giant tuna, and they are that size and only get upto 300lb, so there is no way yrs is a 700 lb fish. notice video of the weighing I see.
Kid running the boat is terrible !!
That poor fish that’s rough man I feel sorry for fish like that
Wtf did u even jus say
Go eat some weeds and leave the fish for the rest of us to eat then. 🤷🏿♂️
That not fishing the boat doing the work
I guess you catch all your fish with your bare hands..
Hey colon, stick with basket weaving !! U have no clue !!! Lol !!
💯 percent truth! Join the USA! Lose the snake pee flag, the American flag is our flag..........
Was this a legal catch ? I know they are teens...but those are a protected fish. Did they have a commercial license to sell it ?
Jealous dink
They aren’t a protected fish. This is a limit on how much caught per day by person. Just calm down. They are teenagers chasing there dreams.
Oh gawd Karen, don’t you have a coffee shop to harass?
@@sethmacomber3497 hey SETHHHH..GFYS...just asking if this was legit. Obviously you don't fish.
One of the kids dads owns and operates a fishing charter they have the permit/license to sell
Shut off that damn clicker !
Rec fisherman if you’re not going to eat it release it cos you have no right in selling it unless you have a license or permit🙏☮️
They have every right to sell it, the government just likes taking rights unless you're willing to pay ransom. The government doesn't stock tuna in the ocean. So if you can afford to pay for a commercial fishing license you have a right. Nawwww
They have one they work for their father who runs a fishing charter they have every right to catch their 1 fish per day and sell it
The days are gone when you can just kill whatever is left out there. Who ever said it was alright to kill for the fun of it.
It's not "for fun", it's for food. That fish will feed tons of people. Leave these kids alone, they should be proud but there's always someone like you who has to come along and claim they're doing something wrong. It's fishing, billions of people do it to survive. Grow some thicker skin, honey.
@@MoarMike these fish are protected by the feds. Did they have a rec. license or a commercial license to even sell it ? That kid could loose his boat and hefty fines. BTW I read it was from his new 24ft. SKIF. Thats no skif.
Benard Demers I was only there to film but Martin and Wyatt both have a license to catch and sell
They aren’t fishing for sport. They are fishing for food. There are millions of other people who fish for food. Don’t assume. They are teenagers. Calm down
I hate harming animals
Just great guys...must’ve been really fun killing that thing ...why, there’s so few left, you’re gonna maybe be the last ones to bag something like that...wow, how very manly of you. Couldn’t you have just, like, taken a picture and kept that memory. Why, that stupid fish just couldn’t give up, could it?
Do u not understand that ppl eat that and it is how some people make a living stfu
I bet your mommy fed you grass and weeds and bags of chips from the liquor store.
Little respect for wildlife.
No respect for life.
Children killing wildlife should get no support especially from the media.
It isn’t enough that everything in the wild is disappearing ; parents teach their kids that wildlife doesn’t matter, and that it’s better to kill it than leave it alone. Why? Senseless. Our sea life as well as our jungle life is disappearing, and our kids are helping it along. Shameful.
How is that deserving of support?
Circle of life mate !
so don't support it, DUNCE.
Hunters and Fishermen are probably the largest contributors to Wildlife Conservation in the Inited States. CCA and Ducks Unlimited were started by sportsmen and are enormous donors in the effort to keep/reestablish habitat and protect species who need it.
They didnt senselessly kill it, it was harvested and sold to market which then will end up on someone's plate at night feeding their family
shut up you weirdo. we kill about 4 or 5 of those a week.
That screaming girl, the one who should've been punted off the boat immediately is a real (not at all) smart fisherman. It would have been hilarious if it got off one of the 50 times she had a wide open shot with the harpoon and didn't take it!
