We caught a giant and while the details escape me, it was in the 1,000
class - really big freakin' tuna. When we returned to the dock, there
were some Japanese there - they took a sample, talked amongst themselves
and offered $35,000 for the fish cash - this was '70s dollars I might add.

He fished with that money for four straight years.


Never had the pleasure of catching a tuna. I've heard stories of fighting
a big Bluefin for 8-10 hours. Talk about sore arms.

Nothing to do with fishing, but the Japanese. It's possible that two more
WWII soldiers were just found in the Philippines.
