A WORLD RECORD CATCH?
New Zealand angler Nathan Adams admits he had a tough time reeling in this giant bluefin tuna. The monster weighs a colossal 335 kilogrammes. Now he's waiting to hear if he's landed a new world record for a tuna this big caught with line and reel. But Adams says his wife's not happy at the prospect of having it mounted on a wall at their home.
Nathan Adams: "Lisa's not too keen on that because she reckons it's like mounting a sofa no the wall or something like that, and probably even a bit bigger, but I've got nowhere to put it until our club rooms are built." Fellow members of Adams' angling club are impressed.
Mark Nobilo (Muriwai Sports Fishing Club): "It's pretty awesome, pretty special, especially for our little club." The fish was caught on February 17th but video of Adams bringing it ashore has only just emerged.
