Ilwaco Tuna
« on: August 27, 2012, 11:41:24 AM »
Finally got out to get the deck bloody with some tuna.   We ran 25 until we hit them.   Put 45 25#'ers in two boats with five guys before we ran out of ice and cooler space.

That's awesome.  Still have not gone out after those things but I think next year I'm going to make it happen.

Just curious how many pounds of meat does that make for your freezer?

I didn't weigh it, but they are solid meat.  Four loins come off each fish plus trimmings to can.  It is an intense experience when you get into them.
