We can see the tuna breaking the surface so divinf infront of the school should not be a problem.

As a med spearo whose usual fish are no larger than 5 kilos what should I do.

Thanks

Hi shane

A 298kilo fish WOW what did you do with all that meat.

I have not shot Tuna like that, but you would have to have at least 3 foam floats with lots of bungee in between. Unless you have a slip tip im not so sure how your spears on your euro guns would hold up against a fish like that, maybe you will have to try for a stone shot or no shot at all. Do you own/have access to bigger guns.

cheers
