Miracle Giant Tuna for Nippon TV Aboard Tuna Hunter Fishing Charters

By July 1, 2013Uncategorized

A popular Japanese comedy TV show by Nippon TV filmed an episode aboard Tuna Hunter Fishing Charters  last weekend. With 5 Japanese and one translator, things got interesting when Tuna Hunter hooked a lively giant bluefin. By some miracle, enough directions were passed through the translator to direct the show’s three comedians to fight and land a 350 pound bluefin in a 2 hour battle.

We have video and more photos coming, but this photo shows the Tuna Hunter and Nippon TV “Tuna Team” just after tail wrapping their giant bluefin.
