What’s not to love about Bluefin Tuna fishing? They have become extremely accessible for everyone here in Tasmania in the last few years with their stocks bouncing back and it’s so great to see. It’s a true privilege to be able to shoot out after work and catch these incredible fish with topwater gear in Bass Strait. it’s extremely important we look after this fantastic resource so they can continue to look after us in the years to come. Single hooks, big fish friendly nets and quick reactions will ensure these fish go home healthy!
When you’re fighting a fish and you stop to rest, so does the fish – and that can lengthen the fight time.
If you’re going out to catch SBT, take the right gear. With super light tackle you have to fight them too long.
There’s something special about bluefin – but we need to appreciate them and do our bit to enhance the fishery, so it’s even better for the next generation.
