The Bluefin Tuna which we were lucky enough to fish for and catch from 2000 to 2005 have not been seen off the Bills rocks for some years now. They are now on the World Wildlife list of endangered species and it is very likely that those fish we saw in their thousands have all been caught and have become “sushi”. During those years when the Bluefins were here Bluewater took part in Stanford Universities TAG A GIANT programme as we were fishing on a catch and release basis. Despite great effort we only managed to tag one Bluefin aboard Bluewater and a two others were tagged of the coast of Donegal. The following year the Bluefins did not return.
We were privileged to see and fish for these mighty fish and to meet some of the characters involved in big game fishing but sadly it seems very likely that we won’t see them again.
