VIDEO: Catching tuna off Durban
I have found tuna elusive this year and the closest I have come to catching one was during Quattro King of the Sea back in May.
The hook pulled right next to the boat off Shelly Beach and I remain on a duck on the tuna front.
Alain Tardin has already landed and released four yellowfin tuna this year, while the Freespool team landed a beauty off Umdloti last week.
Alain's girlfriend, Nordika, caught and released two large tuna off Mozambique in February and landed a 16kg specimen off Durban in January - rubbing salt into my fishing wounds.
I am hoping to have another go soon and will take a camera along to record my latest tuna quest.
Meanwhile, I will have to resort to sharing footage of guys not lacking tuna success.
