Very cool! They make it look so easy! Those were some pretty big tuna they were hauling in. You know their arms were sore after all that!

wow, what an honor it would have been to have been there. far cry from the commercial tuna fishing today when they use nets and catch a hundred(s) at a time.

Thanks for posting, that was great.

All I can say is wow! I guess thats what you would call catching instead of fishing. I can only imagine how many backaches came from that.
