When I heard the phone call during this hard fight I laughed because someone seemed to want to ask when are you coming back for dinner🍴 Max I congratulate you on a beautiful fish, especially since you pulled it out alone.I wish you further success.💪💪💪
Thanks bro, indeed it was something unreal when the phone rang and you are fighting the fish of your lifetime! What can be more important? 🤣 Cheers Max
Diese erste Flucht, einfach abnormal ! Die Power, diese Schnelligkeit, unvorstellbar wenn man es nicht erlebt... und das vom Ufer ! Nochmals ein Petri zu diesem Traumfisch. Tolle Bilder, geiles Erlebnis!
Greetings from South Africa ..Congratulations on this achievement Max. I watched the entire video with my heart racing, I can't even imagine how fast your heart was racing ! Landing that fish absolute alone isn't for everybody, Well done !!
Watched the entire video with my heart racing, can't even imagine how fast yours was (due to the effort but also excitement) :) You set the game on another level man, landing this absolute unit alone isn't for everybody. Cheers! :D
Thank you man! Honestly I was sweating like a pig and my adrenaline level was over the top! One of the keys to land it was to coming back to earth again! Cheers mate! Max
That was amazing to watch. Congratulations on this achievement Max. Greetings from Tunisia, south of the Mediterranean. I've had a crazy tuna strike on spring last year. I sure as hell wasn't even close to landing it with my PE 1.5 on a light shore jigging setup (not to mention liking to fish alone like you). Ended up getting spooled. But it was an unforgettable strike. Glad you were relatively ready and managed to land that beast!
Hi Marwen, thank you happy to hear that you like it! Yes Tuna is something crazy - definitely the ruler of the sea! Impressive to have a run on like SJ-Tackle hope it didn't smoke the reel! 🙈 Greetings Max
@@donPUFA oh absolutely, I had so much adrenaline, I knew I had to control this first before I was thinking of fighting the fish. It's a crazy experience!!!
Danke Tobi! Freut mich das dir der Clip gefällt - neben den ganzen Qualen hab ich versucht auch noch ein bisschen die Schönheit der Natur einzufangen! Gruß Max
Absoluuuuter hammer das Video!!! Was ein Krimi. Dickes fettes Petri Max!!! Da musste die gute alte catalina mal Schwerstarbeit leisten 🥵 aber der Knaller war halt wirklich der Anruf deiner Frau 🙈😂😂 oder sollte ich besser sagen der Versuch
Hi Marius, danke dir - ein Extremerlebnis, du gute Catalina hat es aber astrein überstanden! 😁 He, das Klingeln war schon skurril, aber am Ende hat sie mir den Arsch gerettet! Gruß Max
@@BaccillusAnthracis yes there are a lot of Tunas in the Mediterranean Sea. With unexpected I mean I wasn't targeting Tuna and this fish was completely not in my mind as a possible catch though I knew it is possible. Personally Im happy about this dream catch, but honestly I don't want to experience it again. It's a fight at the limit with an opponent much stronger as yourself, I left the battle as a winner but I had scars.
What a fight !!! Impressive 😮 💪🏼. I am curious to know what is your « go to » set up? Like favorite knots, braid to leader, jig knot, length of leader line and more ? Any video on that ? James
Hi James, no video yet online regarding this topic. My general Shore Jigging setup is a PE 3 braid, a 40 lbs leader connected by an FG-Knot. The length of the leader is always as long as possible usually about 4,20 m. To tie the solid ring to the leader I use a Palomar knot with a chain knot finish. Very strong and reliable setup. Tight lines Max
@@maxdocken Really thanks for your quick answer ! They are my favorite knots too, but I never tried to finish the palomar with chain knot. 🤷🏽♂️ I will try !
Thanks bro, yeah I didn't want to hook this beast but incredible that I could manage to catch it. An unexpected dream fish I have to say! Thank you for your comment - if you like share around the Australien landbased anglers! ✌️ United in passion! Tight lines Max

Hi bro, thank's for the awesome feedback! Yeah it's Greece - one of the most beautiful countries I have ever seen! Hope to wellcome you soon again Sid! Greetings Max
Hallo Chris, ich bin kein Experte (das hat auch einen Grund) für Tunas, allerdings würde ich mal so grob sagen das das Frühjahr und der Frühsommer wahrscheinlich die beste Zeit sind. Fangen kann man sie mittlerweile an den gesamten Mittelmeerküsten, allerdings ☝️ist es in vielen Ländern für Amateurangler verboten! Soweit ich weiß ist es nur in Montenegro und der Türkei erlaubt, in den anderen Ländern muss man vorsichtig sein, wenn man Tunas gezielt fangen will. Viele Grüße Max
Thanks buddy - it was a mistake! I was looking for Amberjack when the train passed by! It was 55 kg but weighted without blood. A very scary fight bro! 😅 Tight lines Max
damn thats massive i cant imagine how it would be . i have a medium heavy rod with 11kg braid do you think that I can catch with it 20kg fish if i take my time with it ?
Yes why not. It depends always on the species, the spot, the conditions, the skill and of course luck! 😅 Never say never - crazy things are possible in fishing! I guess that's why we like it! 😁 Tight lines Max
Nice video Max ,just be careful because in Greece, probably also in other countries in the Mediterranean , it's illegal for amateurs to fish for bluefin tuna!
Thanks my friend! The fish wasn't caught in Greece and anyway I wasn't targeting Tuna it was basically an accident. I wouldn't thought it's possible to win the fight on this equipment! 😅 Thank you for your concern! Greetings Max
@@ΓρηγόρηςΜαργαρίτης-θ6μ Turkey my friend. But the increase of the Tuna population is really a problem for shore fisherman, lot's of cuts, spooled reels. 🤣
@Shore Jigging Diaries hi Max, yes I go as often as possible. Shore jigging usually in Croatia. For some weeks probably I hooked a tuna, but it lasted only seconds before fc broke. Planning on a 2 month trip, want to start soon and travel possibly all the coast to Greece. Petri 🤘
@Shore Jigging Diaries thanks max, the pleasure of fishing is not only reached by catching. But I would like to have a good dinner every now and then of course 🤪 thank you for putting out the great information, I appreciate it👍
Fährst du immer nach Griechenland? Wie schaut es denn in Frankreich und Spanien aus wegen shore jigging im Winter? Spanien ist doch etwas angenehmer was das Wetter betrifft.
Buddy, this is the BEST horror movie i've ever seen! WOW! That was not easy, not easy at all. So happy as i did it. Congratulations!!!
Thanks Ante, don't want to get through that horror again! Pure pain! 🥵

Zu welchen Zeiten und Revieren in Europa sind solche Fänge gezielt vom Ufer möglich?
