First off I must say what I know of this is through reading fishing mag's etc. As I understand it lots of people knew these tuna were there, it isn't a new thing. However, despite lots of talk and some half hearted attempts no one was catching any on the rods. Then the Irish tourist board (I think) advertised for an experienced tuna skipper in the USA. Some guy takes the job goes to Ireland and about 5 minutes later starts bringing in hundreds of pounds rod caught tuna. Since then local skippers have seen what to do and have landed fish too.
So my point is despite years of trying it took someone with experience to lead the way. Similarly the idea of spearing one has done the rounds but what it needs is an experienced tuna spearo to show how its done and land one. Until then it's likely to be half hearted at best and bullshit at worst.
That's what I think anyway.
