School of SBT at Flinders on some footage I saw on FB. Clever how they disappear on weekends when I’m fishing those tuna.

Should be called southern bluefin not on weekend tuna or SBNOWT for short

dont think he ever had a chance landbased with all those boat moorings and the pier structure itself, but would have been awesome if he landed it.
flinders will be packed this weekend.

That's why I didn't get anything! I reckon tackle stores must love these reports....man I burnt a lot of fuel trolling around Flinders/Cape Schanck last year.

It was posted by tackleworld, sent in by an anonymous person or something.

Watching the video, he was lucky to stay connected as long as he did. He was fairly giving it a hiding, I was surprised it didn't snap just after the video started.
