Think Twice Before Hooking a ~3m 200+ kg Bluefin Tuna from Shore - Popper Live Strike & PE10 fight
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 гру 2023
- A day when 3m Bluefin tuna (200+kg) kicked my ass
I don't know did I got up on the left leg that day or what, but it was extremely hard to keep up the fish even 4 minutes on the line.
Directly from the strike I saw it was extremely big fish.
When hitting popper on the surface by my opinion fish had roughly about 3m length. It's quite thankless to estimate the size of the fish, but in previous situations I had very good estimates.
I didn't really have adequate response & plan, so I started behaving like it was regular tuna on the rod. Then short and violent runs started, forward me and from my side...
With a pretty strong and stiff Patriot design XTX76 PE12 rod it was very very hard to keep myself on the rocks.
In the end it resulted with unnecessary running, falling down on the rocks and tuna cuting the braid on the rocks.
Gear Used:
🔸️ Rod: Patriot Design GTZ World Combat XTX76 PE10-12
🔸️ Reel: Shimano Stella 20k with SOM 23k spool
🔸️ Line: Tasline Solid PE10
🔸️ Lure: Lazart Lures

That top water strike was insane even on camera, I’m sure in your memory it’s even crazier. That was a tough loss, but let’s be honest hooking a tuna that big from shore is like showing up to a gunfight with a squirt gun 😂
Agree 🤙
YUP!
And where is this place?
That was the craziest thing I’ve ever seen fishing from the bank, thanks for posting this video. Amazing.
Hooked up on a 12ft sturgeon once and when I saw the thing breach I instantly knew I was screwed! same exact thing happened. 😅 I stood no chance! all I was going for was stripper so at least seeing a sturgeon that big was cool but I'd probably have lost it even if I came prepared.
If you fish for 100 kg tunas, you must be prepared for 200 kg tunas.... But in the end, any of them can throw you on the rocks instead you throwing them over the rocks.....That is fishing! You never know what runs around your lure..... Fantastic video! Congrats my friend!!!!
Thanks man, appreciate! Exactly, it's 1on1 fight 😊🙏🏼
I don't think there were any tuna's over 110kg caught from shore. Even with the best tackle in the world you stand very little chance.
Must be an amazing feeling to fight such a majestic creature...can't wait to get out there next year.
Well done Ivan.
There is no being prepared for a tuna that big from shore regardless of what equipment you got. All you can do is pray
We call that gettin yo ass kicked by a tuna ❤
Я думал сначала что это компьютерная игра на ps5
It’s not all the time about landing a fish and take a picture. This is what a real fisherman dreams for. To hook up a monster and fight with him ,to feel his strength and at the end of the day to have a feeling that can be described.
Good job tuna King 🤴. 🍾🎣
Thanks Klaus! You got the point, overall its not the most important what will happen on the end, but what we were spending time on. Cheers man 🙏
So true 😊
Thats what
I tell myself everytime a striper breaks me off fly fishing. Lol but yes your correct. Unless your starving of course
Exactly. I’d rather have fought it for a while than to have never felt the power of the mighty bluefin. I’ve lost many many bluefin that sometimes still keep me up at night going over what I did and what I should have done. But in the end. Better to have done battle than to get nothing. Great video. I’m supposing this took place in the Mediterranean somewhere?
Come on! You’d still be bummed af when it broke off 😂
That surface hit is one of the coolest things I've seen in my life!
Tnx man, glad you liked it!!
Not many people in their life get to live what you did that day. Absolutely incredible. No big deal that the fish got away tp live. You have the experience and video for life. Incredible!
Tnx man 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I had the same experience in Norway with a giant halibut. Threw out a half-pound saithe in a strait and hooked on something that took all line and snapped it like a sewing thread. Before I caught fish up to 20 kg but this was on a whole other level. I will never know how big it was.
WOW! That strike was epic! Once in a lifetime memory! Thanks for sharing.
I am glad you liked it 🙏🏼
and especially when you have it on video.
WOW runaway freight train
What an amazing fish to get hooked up to! I didn't realize tuna and especially tuna that large trolled so close to the banks. Truly epic hook up and to catch the action on film makes it all the more special. Congrats on fighting that beast. You will forever win the "one that got away" fishing stories!
Yes, I thought big tuna were a deep sea fish...
Him telling the fish story wouldn’t match to power of seeing it on video! No exaggeration needed that was epic!
wow, at least you got a look at it, I have been humbled by fish I didn't see and decades later still wish I had seen them.
Yeap..when fishing on jig i also dont know how big is the fish, but with popper another story :)
That fish is huge ! That would be hard enough on 24kg and a boat ! These tuna I’m seeing these days are getting massive again !!! Love the sound of fish peeling off line
The reel screaming Farr the best sound ever
I saw this clip on my Facebook feed. So glad to have found the full video! A true fish story that will never be forgotten.
The sound of the drag just burning with that monster on the other end gave me a smile. It’s not everyday you catch something “too big”. That rod and reel are screaming “watch me go”. 😂
Big mama says good bye :)
That is the most insane fishing video I've ever watched. Once in a lifetime emotion!
Thanks 🙏🏼 I am glad you liked it!
this is brutal strength of a formidable opponent, a high octane marine V8 on a tail. Once in a lifetime and great lesson for the hunting spirit of yours. Very good video.
Thanks ❤ actually twin 450R Verado's 😆 Hopefully we learned something from this trip, to be continued.
This is almost "the one that got away" story, but you have video to prove it! Great video!!!
The one that gone away on youtube :)))
You did everything you could. They dont make tackle for fish that size from shore. Amazing hookup, incredible footage. I imagine your heart is still racing days after. Im sorry you didnt land it, but nobody in the world was going to land that fish. Maybe keep a kayak handy so you can at least have a fun ride if that ever happens again. Thanks for the video.
Thanks Michael 🤙I agree, but i can not save myself from exploring and pushing boundaries 😊 Still this size is a bit too much for now, we are waiting for smaller fish to strike 🎣
Thats suicide, without a back up boat with engine a fish like this will take you for miles.
THey do, it's just for sharks 😂.
@@masonreppeto882 not for lure fishing.
That Tuna would change kayak with super speed boat, and if he get tangled his kayak would be submarine😢 Take care, coz like you showed us walking over the rocks could end badly with long perm injury. Once I saw man hits his head on the rocks. Fishing for life but safety&care at 1st place. Im wondering you thought you would be able to take that Tuna out? Guess nope.
You fished like a hero. Massive respect.
lol a hero ? 😬 😂
A hero...? You call one a hero for holding a fishing line.
So how do you call a soldier in the line of combat, pulling his teammate out under enemy fire?
Also a hero or do you have classes in being a hero?
Come on, it’s a fishing video. Get a life or get tested to see if you are on the spectrum as you are taking this too seriously.
It’s a fishing video and you have to try and understand the sentiment like most other people have.
The way that fish blew up on that lure was absolutely amazing…awesome footage dude….and congratulations!
Glad you enjoyed it, apreciate!
there is no losers in this fight , respect from Australia
Tnx man, apreciate 🙏🏼
Tuna like that so close is amazing. The best take I’ve seen for some time .
200+ kg and 200+ HP. This "documentary" is insane and wonderfull. To see the beast that shows himself to you to let you know what you are going to fight is also poetic. The gauntlet was dropped. Epic.
Tnx man 🙏🏼
Nice size hook up Ivan, from shore as well, epic encounter, I have to head 90-120km offshore for tuna that size , brilliant job, he would’ve ran for hours had he stayed hooked, tight lines bud 🤙
We will see next time what will happen, anyway would like a bit smaller size tuna, this is too much.
I have returned to look at that video dozens of times. That was an awesome battle! Keep fishing and keep filming..definitely fuels my appetite for fishing
Thanks! Will do! More to come hopefully 🤙
where is this??@@nasticivan
Well, that brings a whole new meaning to 'Going For A Walk'... Only thing was I bet you didn't expect it to be a Tuna taking you for the walk! 😂👍
Thats why some of them are called doggy 😅
Not enough drag in the world for that guy. Life changing experience, glad you were able to film and share with everyone!
Yes that's right. Stuck on shore with a 450lb rocket shooting away 50mph, I don't think anyone on earth would have landed that fish. But the excitement in that moment at the remote possibility you could must have been the experience of a lifetime.
I was expecting the reel to burst into flames! 😮
Just wondering why he didn't adjust the drag to try and slow the fish down? I don't saltwater fish monsters like that though.
@schukls993 It's a huge fish, the tuna already pulled the guy across the rocks and injured him. If he put more tension on the line, I don't think he could've handled it.
@@schukls993tuna are made to only move forward. They are basically rockets of pure muscle. There is no slowing down a tuna.
That was a crazy scrap with a beast! Nice try! Could feel your reel straining on those runs!
Awesome vid! 🤙🏾🤙🏾
Every now and then coming back to watch this epic scene...
It's already 3rd or 4th time. Next time Ivan, next time! You did everything you can, but please be safe!
Tight lines
🎣
Wow wow wow what an experience you were blessed with, both the tuna and the rocks beat you up,but you lived to tell and show your grandkids about it one day ,great video man
Tnx man, glad you enjoyed it
I am speechless. What a hell of a fight. Pretty bad fall. I felt it myself while I was watching. What a hero!
Another one calling a boring fisherman a hero for standing on the rocks...
So how do you call a soldier in the line of combat, pulling his teammate out under enemy fire?
Also a hero or do you have classes in being a hero?
@@Yoda300YearsAgo Why are you so sad?
Great to see you enjoyed the fight knowing realistically it was a matter of time before it broke off, simply enjoying its power.
Wow!!! That was intense! It didn’t look possible to land so I’m not surprised it broke off!
If i were u i couldnt sleep alnite long
...epic video man...love it
It happened to me too. From 9.30 in the morning to 14 in the afternoon. At the end I was happy to brake the line.. Amazing video.
yeap, in few cases i felt the same..relief after the fish broke the line
What a fight! Keep these kind(fishing) of videos coming. People love ‘em.
Thanks! Will do, more to come :)
Shoot, this is the best fishing video I've ever seen. I got goosebumps... I can't begin to imagine the thrill you felt. You fought it with everything you had, brother! Great job! Makes me wanna get on the water right now 😂
Thanks man, really appreciate! 🙏🏼
Bravo Ivane, care!
Bravo i za tunu 👏
Hvala Narcise!
What a memory to share with the kids and friends. I remember almost hooking on to a big Sturgeon with a small reel/rod combo. Always wondered what what would have happened if my lure didn't get snagged on the fishing pier just before a huge Sturgeon decided swim up to have a look at it.
That was a great fight!!!! Cheers buddy! sve najlobjle u idniny!
Best shore video of tuna ever
Congratulations on this fantastic video and adrenaline dose
Tnx man!
Man, I've seen many fishing videos but I cannot remember one that got me out of my seat. I was totally checked in and there with you the whole time. No way were you going to land that thing but what an experience! holy crap! lol.
Hahahahha, Thanks man, aprexiate it really and I am very glad you enjoyed it!
My big game spinning kit:
1- Penn PE 10 ocean assasin Rod.
2 - 10500 Penn slammer3 spinning reels that have 60lb dragging strength.
3 - 800m of .55 mm 200lb hollow core braid.
I have caught a similar size Tuna with the above gear of a boat, and the Tuna's that size pulling strength is what makes it all with it; even If I lose my fish, I would still be stoked!
Hope you come across another one. Cheers
thanks, this pen slammer, what is the capacity of spool? with pe10 for example? You say 800m of 0.55mm and on www.pilker-discount.de/en/rods-reels/reels/spinning-reels/penn-slammer-iii they say 400m 0.56mm. I think its smaller than stella 30k?
At least you got a chance with that bucket list fish! Great job
Brate svaka ti čast. Epske scene💪💪
Hvala Nenade!
What a fish.. Unstoppable
Totaly violent!
The way the tuna jumped out the water for the lure was epic!
🙏
Thus was an insane battle mate subscribed 🎣💪
What an effort getting up from that fall
Thanks man & for the sub!
@@nasticivan no worries mate, keep up the awesome work
👍 wow what a memory caught on film !
Thanks 🙏🏼🙏🏼
The reel drag on the line steadily increases as the spool line diameter decreases due to the fish taking line (removing line from the reel spool). Therefore as the line diameter decreases, you must loosen the drag on the reel, otherwise the line will not be able to withstand the increased drag and will break. Regardless, the fish was too big to land from shore with that equipment. Excellent video. Loved seeing the fish take the hook!
I mean you make it sound like rocket science, every angler worth their salt knows this bud. Fishing 101
it’s still helpful info though. i didn’t know this, though i’m never gonna hook a fish like that🤣
That take was insane. Holy crap
The things we go through to land the big one, watching you reminded me of the day I caught a 7.5 foot stugion at 225pounds that took me an hour to get it in. It was totally out of strength and sweated like a pig at the end, but it was worth every minute of it, and to see that fish slowly swim away brought such joy over me that nothing else in this world could compare to it. Good for you in not giving in. Great video, nicely done, and I hope your ankle is doing better. Remember to keep that line tight 😊😊
Man that was Awesome.. I hope you're fine and not injured.. It was almost a Submarine 😅... Absolutely amazing 👌🏼🔥
Tnx! All fine now..waiting equipment for next trip!
Hope you are okay.
That was a fish 🎣 of a lifetime you had there. Amazing 🎣👍🥳
Yes man, all fine now, ready for new expedition 🤙
That was a brutal run, no way to stop it! Svaka čast majstore, borac!
Tnx man, apreciate 😊🤙
bro i felt that fall down in my plums. those rocks are big-boy sharp. strong effort.
I lost a Lake Michigan-run sturgeon the same size. Of course they hit your bait on the bottom, so not as exciting as a top water take. Peeled my reel in no time before shaking me off. The power a big fish transfers into your forearms is a memory that will forever be imprinted on your conscious. When these big fish get away, there’s nothing to be upset about as they’ll pass on their genetics or give another angler that special experience. Tight lines brother.
Thanks man..apreciate opinion and you are right..had similar multiple experiences with big catfish and tunas
You did everything right. Massive respect.
I don’t think anyone can do any better than you.
That fish is just too big and too powerful for anyone to land it from shore.
Will need a braid line rating higher than PE10 and length more than 600m to stand a chance to prolong the fight but no guarantee to land it either.
Please don’t feel bad . That is an experience of a lifetime. many people has dreamed of a bite like that …. Including me
Tnx man, i agree with facts..yes thicker line but then there is problem of length on spools..this is how it is, simply they dont produce bigger spools at this time! 😊
I landed a 236.6 Lbs yellowfin tuna on a boat a 10 day trip with 26 fisherman. I used a braid 100lb with a 150 floro carbon leader on a live sardine. A 2 speed Okuma n a hybrid carbon rod. It took me 1hr 40 mins n I lost count how many times it crossed over the anchor line!! That was 2017 my personal best for tuna.
@@localguy8 yes, you were on a boat which given you a higher chance to land the fish than from onshore location like this guy. If the fish spools you too much then the boat can chase after the fish to recuperate the fishing line easily. While this guy had no chance since he stucked on the rock onshore.
Sound like you used a conventional reel type which would hold a lot more line to play with the fish than a spinning reel.
That is some heck of a rod, check out that bend!! 🎣👀💀
@localguy8 so a slower tuna, half this size, on a 2 speed conventional reel, from a boat. Basically that experience and this one are so far apart you almost can't call them both the same sport
One of the best fights I have ever seen. Fisherman never had a chance. Good effort!
That was epic! Thanks for sharing!
What part of the world is this in?
That's incredible to get such a good view of the fish right before it decided to leave 😄
A fish of a life time from shore.
The big ones like these are coming to Scandinavia once a year now. But are strictly forbidden to fish since they are still on the recovery path from being gone for over 50 years here due to overfishing. I doubt they where in Scandinavia however in this video, doesn't look like it :) still need to be very careful with these beautiful fish where ever it is on the planet.
I'm pretty sure it's Montenegro in Balkans.
@@Jamaha_Kondo I was going to guess Croatia. Man, seems like a great place for a fishing vacation.
Great fisherman! Keep it up! Let me know what reel and size, rod and line you were using, please! It would mean alot to me!
Tnx man! I will write you message, best!
Its in the description, i dont see option for messages here :)
u r a Legend for battling that fish as well as u did. RESPECT
Tnx man, glad you liked video 😊🤙
You did as good as any man could. That was fantastic!
Epic fight! That is the thrill of the sport. All my most memorable fish were the ones that got away. I once hooked a goliath grouper... on 40lb test line. I stood no chance... but for 3 minutes... we battled and I felt his might. Another time, a 12ft Hammerhead took my redfish. Nothing short of steel cable would have landed it... but I did get to engage with it for a brief time... feel its fury and power. Those are the moments. You got to live it... and caught it on camera. GREAT STUFF
Epic footage! All about the memories!
Dam! That was Epic! Old Man in the Sea stuff! Glad you did not get hurt in that fall!
What an epic take. glorious.
Massive Respect Dude!!! 🔥🔥Crazy video...👍🏾🎣
Wow that was awesome to see. Thank you for sharing that video with us. 👀👍💯
Nice bro. You touched a god of nature and lived
I instantly had a spike in adrenaline seeing that strike. Going to watch again and probably going fishing first thing in the morning.
Any catch? 😊
he was never in control for once....such a big fish n drag to the max..n the fish is still pulling the line ...amazing vid..😂👍👍
I feel you're pain bro, I'm forever falling on boulders fighting big fish...!❤
Beautiful fish and beautiful scenery!
That was insane. Thanks for the ride.
Glad you enjoyed it!🤙
My heart is pumping just watching !
Wow! One of the most impressive fishing videos i have ever seen!
Wow, thanks man!
Wow, the adrenaline you were hit with when it struck must’ve been intense. You know it’s big when it looked big from far away on camera. What an experience regardless of landing the fish or not! Good job brother
Tnx man, yea, it was quite a hard game
Wow, what an intense experience! It sounds like you had quite the battle with that big fish. Estimating its size at 3 meters from the strike must have been thrilling and challenging at the same time. Even though it was tough to keep it on the line, the excitement of encountering such a monster fish must have been unforgettable. Looking forward to hearing more about your fishing adventures! I subb to your channel
Amazing work💪
Best fishing video I've seen - bar none - and I've seen a LOT.
Wow, thanks man!
Just stumbled across this absolutely humbling experience, huge props for attempting to turn her what an absolute unit of a tuna.
Thanks man
That bite was insane!!!!!
That was INSANE, MONSTER FISH!!
That was mental!!
Couldn’t stop laughing, you lost a fish but gained an amazing memory:)
Thankyou for sharing. It was a big ask taking a heavyweight like that on.👍
that was awesome I commend you for trying!
man that was intense! Sorry you lost it, but thanks for sharing! Also I hope your knee is ok, that sounded really painful!
Knee fine finally, ready for new adventures
Bloody mental brave effort 👏👏👏 the billy goat that nearly caught a 200kg tuna. Loving your attitude man😉👍
Combattimento incredibile e meraviglioso! Bravo e grazie!!
🤙🙏🏼
Amazing! That was incredible. Well done, and bad luck.
That's insane, must br a crazy adrenaline kick! What a fish!
Awesome fish! Such a great shot of it taking the popper.
I'm impressed that with light tackle you held onto that fish as long as you did. The strike was awesome.
Tnxxx man 🙏🏼✌️
Amazing. Drag looked very tight at the end.
'Brother this is not normal.' LOL Bro that was not normal, that was awesome!
Tnx man, I am glad you enjoyed it!
Man had every fishermens dream and worst nightmare in less then five minutes
The rush!!!. One in a lifetime. Some of us dream about that. No matter it got away. ❤
Kidding bro u gave it ya best shot
Wow what a take , and I could see you were in for a hard fight, getting slammed against the rocks to , enjoy your day with lots of memories. 😊
