My first tuna caught off the coast in O'ahu. Took a charter out for the afternoon and had a blast with Bob Marlin.

Great day finishing just off porta callero! Had no scales to weigh, but this fish put up a great fight. From weighing carps (which I know is very different) I'd guess 8/9 pounds. Great first experience sea fishing 🐟 Big up the main man Pepe!!!
