52kg yellowfin at Canarfin

Average photo, but you get the idea of what a 52kg yellowfin tuna looks like, minus a few shark bites.  This fish was taken free diving, fair effort!!

Yep, 52 kg.  Pretty sure it was going to be a state record.

Just checking out a website and found that my old man's still got the state record for painted cray.  Be nice if they spelt his name right though. :(
