This is a Yellowfin Tuna
Hamachi is Yellowtail

Dude, hamachi is right.  How big of a bottle of mayo and siracha would you need to make spicy tempura unagi rolls?  yum yum

 My cousin is one of the deckhands on the Excel . They got into the big tuna big time. One angler landed 3 cows in one day. Unreal fishing for sure. Seeing all the pictures on his FB is killing me.
