HI all,

saw this on one of the Irish sites:
"A possible new Irish record albacore (longfin tuna), weighing 16.66 kg has
been taken 50 miles SW of the Blasket Islands, Co. Kerry. The fish was taken
28 September by Waterford angler Alan Glanville on a surface trolled
artificial squid. It is expected that the record will be ratified at the
next meeting of the Irish Specimen Fish Committee."

There is a pic of the guy and it looks like he is same chap who caught the
first bluefin off ireland a few years ago too.
