That was a top clip Manni and some great fish caught.

I had to laugh about the music playing while you were hauling in your Longy: "I'm a loser baby, so why don't you..."

What sort of Nordic rods are being used in the clip? They dont look very bent over in the clip, could be stiff rods or loose drags...

These are NS Favourite samples rating between 6-14lb to 8-20lb.

Not sure what you mean by bends as I saw a few good ones there !

Finally got to watch it all the way through, fantastic vid Manni highly entertaining. Gotta feel for Dan, that would be gut wrenching.

Mad vid manni

[Do$tylz]

man.. awesome vid. I can see where Booty got the rod not bending part. I think the 7ft rod that Manni was using has a much stiffer taper, and by the looks of it, his fish was pretty far away as well.

Awesome catches guys. Sweet time wasting Dan hahaha

a good while in to the fight we were thinking sharks may play a factor and at one point the Tuna hit the surface and there was heaps of spalshing in the water, we all thought shark !! but then it just started to peel line at high speed by this point we thought we may now be hooked to a shark but wasn't the case even in the underwater footage we can't see any damage to the Tuna so we are not sure what happened on the surface?
