Welcome to the very first Trans-Tasman Tuna Tournament — where fishing pride is on the line!
In this no-rules, no-prize competition, two nations go head-to-head in a battle for bluefin glory.
Representing New Zealand is Phil Matson, while Australia's biggest fishing personality George leads the charge from Down Under.
The mission?
Catch a Southern Bluefin Tuna weighing over 100 kilograms off the coast of Melbourne.
Watch as both teams assemble at the local boat ramp, launch their Makaira Boats, and set off for an epic day on the water. Who will land the monster tuna first — Team Australia or Team New Zealand?
