Do you report to Willie?
 
The fish is also on video on the Fishing BC youtube channel if you guys want check it out. Its another awesome Fishing BC video, it’s titled Tuna off the west coast of Vancouver Island.

I‘m not sure guys but it could be Willie himself with the post “ Kingsize “ maybe not but could be.

Welcome to the forum Willie if that's you. I would assume it is as that's the name of Willie's boat.

And yes that is certainly an Albacore. 2nd Dorsal fin and pelvic fin is small like an Albacore. Yellow fins have very long second Dorsal's and long Pelvic fins. Yellow fins have yellow on all of their fins and some on their bodies too. Albacore can have some yellow on their finlets as well. And the last pic he posted clearly shows the very long Albacore Pectoral fin.
 
I’m going to say it’s an albacore. Because the guy who caught it said it’s an albacore.

Maybe let’s get back to the topic of a head guide for this awesome lodge!

I’d be a shoe in, if I didn’t have a family 4 hours away, run two businesses and suck at fishing.

I nominate Aces

While working for such a first class operation would be an honour i'm happily retired. I have alerted some very worthy candidates for this position and hope one of them takes it on
 
5 bucks says that 315 Conquest is BCI's boat he had up for sale. Perfect rig for the crew off Fetch to borrow next tuna derby haha
