100 pound tunas busting poppers.....

.....is about as exciting as it gets.  I had it happen to me a couple of times this week, but I have not stayed connected with the big one yet.  We caught a bunch of 40-60 pounders today, one about 80 on conventional, but I had a Volkswagen air out on my Ranger that was skipping on top of the waves at the end of my spinning rod, a new Shimano Tallus with Saragosa 20,000 and 65 pound Power Pro.  I had what I needed to give it a good try, but after showing me how big she was, then coming back and eating it, she just pulled a little drag, but didn't stay connected.
