Bluefin tuna are some of the biggest, baddest fish in the sea, and the 832-pound behemoth that was brought into the HarborWalk Marina in Destin, Florida, last weekend could be the biggest bluefin ever recorded in the state’s history, the Miami Herald reports.
 

A team of three anglers that included Capt. Jake Matney, Devin Sarver, and Jett Tolbert caught the tuna while fishing from the No Name on April 16. Matney’s family was on board as well, according to the Herald, and when the crew hooked into the bluefin, they had already traveled 160 miles since leaving port in Destin the previous day to chase marlin. After a battle that lasted nearly five hours, the team brought the massive fish to the boat. On Sunday, they brought the tuna into the marina to be weighed and photographed.
