New school techniques of the 1940s tuna fishing. Can you imagine tossing a 100# tuna over your head with one of those15 ft rods!
Cool video.

Back to the basics. If I want to be a true sportsman, I'll sell all my fancy tackle and sit on the bow of that boat with my supplied sling rod and no reel.
It's all about leverage.

The whole key to success once you find the fish is the live bait chum and the water spray.

That was pretty cool! I wonder how many pounds of drag those rods can handle..........................
