A Yellowfin of any size is a prized catch of the Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coast fisherman. In September of 2012, a new world record (IGFA confirmation still pending) was set off Cabos San Lucas, Mexico for a Yellowfin Tuna caught on a rod and reel. At an incredible 427 lbs, the previous record of 405 lbs, set in 2010, will be left far behind. Trophy Yellowfin Tuna depicts a fish of about 140 lbs.
