Nov 24th 2025 , YELLOWFIN TUNA IN SHALLO

1-149lb yft 12-American Red Snapper 1-Jumbo grey triggerfish Took a hr to find and catch or live bait, then We ran east down the beach 6 miles from pensacola pass , put out 2 large live cigar minnows on 60lb mono leader with a snelled 6/0 Lazer Sharp tournament approved circle hook in 30ft of water, I bump trolled the baits around for about 10-15 minutes before we got the sickest bite we could of ever witnessed!! The fish skied out of the water like 15ft in the air, wish I had it on camera. And proceeded to dump a ton of line instantly. National Geographic stuff! We fought the tuna for 1.5hr ( would of been less time with a International ?) , fish died at the end of the fight - sunk 2 gaffs in him and we proceeded to hooop and Hollar like 5 year old kids getting ice cream from the ice cream truck lol! I ran 5 miles south from there to get our snapper limit, which only took 20 minutes.
