Giant tuna footages!

Hi Roberto,
thank's for your experienced opinion!
Giant bluefin tuna spearfishing is not allowed on the East cost of USA and Canada.(Other tuna?: no problemo!). During, a one hour diving in a school of about hundred 600/900 lb tuna competing to eat (despite the fact that capt. and me were worried about a fatal collision with the world largest and most powerfull fish), I had a lot of opportunities to place an efficient shoot( I brought special shafts and speartips) and to bring back or not the "fish of my life" to the boat. But this context means: a great "trip"... but no pic and impossible telling the story to anybody. The www.spearfishingmotion.com website calling is "to share" and video was not the worst substitute.
If you want to taste North Atlantic, I know a spot about twelve hours boat off the coast where there are huge bigE and albacore swimming close to the surface in August in the middle of GBF tuna and...sharks.
I'll be back to Cuba in December for a 12th trip (addicted) and to Costa Rica (3th trip this year), and perhaps could I see you. Amicalement Philippe.
 
Excellent Phillipe!!

Nice video and what a fantastic scene beeing in the water that must have been.

Cheers,

Roberto
 
Yes, we tried the permits for the Blue fins, but to no avail, sad, very sad.
Thanks for sharing my friend.
 
Hi Philippe.

Good to "see" you on Deeperblue. Those are awesome images. I think a partner could help solve that filming / hunting conundrum next time the big boys are in town. Let us know...
Thanks for sharing and allowing to share on your site.
Cheers,

Virgil
 
Hi virgil!
glad to meet you on the same boat. I'll Write you thi W.E. Amicalement, Philippe
 
WOW!!
Incredible footage! Sad that the Feds can't/won't issue even a limited permit to shoot one of these fish. What an absolute thrill that'd be.
 
Awesome, Just awesome to see those fish. Would love to have a go at one someday. Great video.
