West African Yellowfin Tuna

December 14th, 2006 by James


For anyone who likes sushi, sport fishing, or diving, here are some photos of yellowfin tuna taken 20 miles offshore in West Africa. This is the first time I’ve ever seen tuna just swimming lazily on the surface - usually they are charging into schools of baitfish or jumping out of the water in hot pursuit of flying fish. These guys in the photos were between 30 and 50 lbs. You may not be able to see the fish in these thumbnails, so click through for the bigger version.
