Hello Everybody,
This is my firts post to this forum and it is a pity that it is just to say that this "rumor" is false.
We shoot the 3 tunas in open waters with our spearguns.
We did not find them floating and ill
nor do we shoot them inside of a tuna farm
nor we buy them from a net boat
nor we use explosives to hunt them
nor ...
We stay in the sea, we wait, we use flasher, bungies, chum, the biggest spearguns avalaible without buying an especialized one, anything we think we should use. And we are sorry to have shoot and fail at two tunas. But you learn by experience. Now we are prepared to land 3 over 3 and our material is going to be perfect next time.
If everything goes as I would like, I will use a speargun capable of deliver more than 400 joules of energy (experimental medition) while I shoot the 278,4 kg tuna with a 115 joules gun. You will be amazing with this new speargun.
The complete history "620 lb Tuna 2003" will be published soon in USA magazines.
Please think about the great problems involved in this kind of fishing and be more generous in your appreciations. I think Blue Water Spearos understand us. We cross 1200 km from our home to tuna grounds and stay 9 days for 3 shoots.
Thank you everybody.

If you want to see two stone shoots from a very little neumatic speargun (25% power of my stealth 110 at 40 bar) on little fishes, go to download section of my new site

Don't know if this rumour is true or not as Fernando Abella has the rep of a very good spearo.
