No, we didn't catch this on Bonanza. Roy and I are visiting Prince Edward Island on the East coast of Canada by car. Today we were driving around looking at boats and the ocean when we pulled into Sea Cow Harbour on the West end of the island. An 807 pound Atlantic Blue Fin tuna greeted us at the dock. What an incredible sight. We met the captain and he told us how he and his crewman fought it for about two hours. His 40 foot power boat "Jolie" had no way to land the tuna so they summoned a fellow fisherman who's boat had a crane, to help get the beast on-board. Once lowered from the hoist, this guys was dressed, packed in ice and headed to Japan before nightfall. Happy fishing all!
