1st time blue fin

My first time catching a Blue Fin Tuna. It weighed about 80-90lbs. Caught on board the Sea Adventure 80 out of H&M Landing in San Diego CA. I used a Penn 40 reel with 65lb braided and 50lb top shot on live bait. We were off the coast of Catalina Island. It was a 1 1/2 day charter. Captain Billy got us on the fish and the crew busted butt day and night to keep the fish coming in. Also big props to Chaz and Captain Billy for gaffing this bad boy. Thanks to David for cooking restaurant quality meals, and to Sean and all the crew. Best crew in the business. The entire catch was about an hour long.
