This 55.9kg tuna was caught today aboard Matt Hunt’s charter.
Jan and Peter Goode fished off port fairy today in 44m, hooked 10 tuna between about 13 & 18kg, lost one at the boat, tagged 5 and kept their four. The 2 fish Goodey kept were caught on 4kg line one was 15.75kg and the other was 16.25, only 400 grams short of his own state record!
Richard and Reg Goodwin were out at the shelf off Port Fairy, finding a few tuna as well, including Reg’s first.
Fishing out of Port Fairy Andrew Westlake, Janika, Monzoor and Paul landed 4 with one a triple hookup. Richardson Marine’s Samaki red-head diver was a winner again today.
Nick, Tom, Brett and Josh also got amongst them.
John Irving was bottom fishing in 45m off Warrnambool today when tuna popped up next to the boat, and they promptly caught one. So from Port MacDonnell to Warrnambool, the tuna fishing is excellent, with fish of all sizes including the chance of a barrel!
