rooboy123 9 Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 That is crazy!! It would be awesome just to see that, catching it would be mindblowing. I like the article. Fish maybe radioactive, but the crew still had some sashimi!! Could be more dangerous than eating puffer fish! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest horses4courses Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 They interviewed him on one of the news shows this morning...........he was saying that "I saw the head coming in through the back door,and I reckoned it alone weighed 100kg"..........my youngest daughter (13) replied "that's almost as big as his head"..........I thought that was pretty good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chief 706 Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 That's what we like about you ausea....your Quick Dels already done that one . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 Why kill it though? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ugly4Life 41 Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 Why kill it though?Seriously doubt it would release well at that size. Better to just take it rather than release and have it die a day later. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Station49 33 Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Why kill it though?My understanding is that it was specifically targeted to gather samples for investigation into radiation levels, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest horses4courses Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 .......then they have sent the rest of it to a local smoke house for smoking.........yet another way to eat radio-active tuna Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Barbz 0 Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 That would of been a massive to get that aboard aha. Dunno how they did it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Better to just take it rather than release and have it die a day later.I guess so but they do release those massive Atlantic blue fin they catch off princess Edward sound.Just seems wrong for one person to kill something so massive and impressive.

brendanc 0 Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 is a great catch. you will find he took scientist's out targeting them and they were lucky enough to get one that big. now they are gona do research on the fish, 1 part is for radioactive as it might have gone through japan better be safe than sorry. he would be spewing he cant sell it to the japanese would pay off his house or tackle shop. its going to be on ifish in coming weeks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brendanc 0 Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 its one fish wont hurt to much, im sure if they hooked another they would have let it go if possible, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Yeah i know but heaps of twits are killing them. Charters chasing those mega pacific bluefin are very popular off greymouth now. To me its like going to africa and shooting an elephant. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pikk0n 2 Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Taking a scientist out... I suppose if whale research works this works as well. They have to close this loophole... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
