Fishing Getaways Group Catches Biggest Tuna in Eaglehawk Neck (Tasmania) for 2013
   

Weighing in at 144kg, this Bluefin Tuna caught by the Fishing Getaways team on our May share charter tops the list of biggest Tuna caught in Australia for 2013, it is also the largest fish ever caught by this boat and confirmed to be the 4th biggest fish ever caught in this location. Reeling this monster in was a team effort with the main contenders being first-time angler Andrew Milne teamed up with regular Fishing Getaways client, John Scicluna. What an experience for this group of anglers! The fish was caught on a JB Micro Dingo Lure, which sold out within some Victorian stores within a week of the catch. The trip was lead by our illustrious leader - Gordon Howlett "It is always a pleasure to take groups away and see their joy whilst catching the fish of a lifetime. But there is an added joy when the biggest cheer on the way in comes from your skipper. You know you have just witnessed something special", Gordon said.
Before the group had even arrived back in Melbourne, news of the catch had gone viral. This is the talk of the fishing community at the moment, and it is wonderful for the team at Fishing Getaways to proudly say "That fish was caught on our trip"! The 2014 season dates have already been set, so if you are looking for the chance to match or beat the new Fishing Getaways record then make sure you book in some time to spend on one of our trips in 2014.
