It would be so awesome to make a wish and have it come true: I wish that ALL marine life would return to whatever its greatest population was in the last 2, 000yrs.

Catches a fish that would pay his mortgage for the year. Lets it go. 😐

That stupid song (Ohh this is crazy) was driving me nuts. Never put such a frustrating song on a video.

PEI is hard to bet as far as granders go. That's a big fish.
I live in coastal NC and for anyone who doesn't know a fishable population was
" discovered" maybe 20 - 25 years ago of bluefin tuna. No one knows if they had been migrating here or for how long.
Seems to reason they had not been showing up here that.long because a lot of.times th1ey are caught withing site of the beach feeding on menhaden. I can't recall a 1000 lb er caught ( It's probably happened and I didn't know) but many 600 - 800 are landed. It's a very controlled fishery and each year a weight quota is issued. The boats going for them include those In " Wicked Tuna " but locals target them to sale and for mega dollars. They all get a plane ride to Japan where they are even more valuable. They show up sometime in Dec. peaking in Jan and only 1 per day are allowed with a short open season that depends when quota is caught. I ve been out after them once and failed to land a fish but many of the boats around us got a fish. I ve heard one is usually enough after bring in a 800 lb fish.

What kind of bow do you recommend for doing giant tuna fishing please comment back I did it when I was 16 years old with my boss and now that I am retired I would like to go back and do away I am 53 please comment back thank you very much for this video did you keep the fish or did you let it go

These fish are not to be hunted ! They live a long time and numbers are down.
Sad that people still believe that it's ok to do other than film them from drones or simply leave them alone .

1000lbs or 100lbs? And if he is not in the boat, he is not caught yet. Man I love Tuna Sushi 🍣

[xbigshot]

nice tuna 500-600 "1000" listed in header is click worked!

[captpepin]

I'd like to know the rod blank as well, there was very little bend for 100lbs of drag

[Hydrayak]

I like how they make tuna fishing look so hard on Wicked Tuna... then there are tons of YouTube videos of guys chumming them up to the boat.

Scott so cool you made it to the east coast of Canada! Cheers from New Brunswick

[BLung-tqmm]

this reminds me of the fish farms i used to go to as a kid. the tiny ponds were so stuffed with fish you just plopped your line in and immediately caught a fish. then you had to pay for the fish before leaving after 10 minutes... not fishing by any standards

[TJQuirk]

Watching in 2021 and seeing how much different Scott's videos are edited is crazy

[wtre]

If it were 500lbs it would be bigger then a Buick...lol

[philwauke]

Dude in the green and orange hung in there like a boss on the leader

[billkeller]

hows the one big boy- he loooks at the dead bait, turns and laughs. thanks for the great underwater feeding habit shots. as you can see the fish are semi selective, that big monster must have been hungry.

[debeyes]

So you pay a guy loads o money to reel a fish to the side of his boat using his rod & reel on a line that he tied a hook on then put on bait then chucked it in the water lol then when a fish takes the bait u get to have pic took lmao yeah nice1
