they used to pass through Venice back in the day. Have heard lots of stories of Volkswagens jumping out of the water. One spooled a 80W like it was nothing!!
But like all tuna, they have been over fished and now you have to go WAY out for them. They still pass through, but only at a certain time of year. |
