If only all fishing was that easy. What a great vid you found!

That is incredible. I would have had no idea what a pole boat was until I saw this. A bunch of guys bag 300+ tons of tuna using bamboo poles. And, back then there weren't any electronics so the captain had to read the water and position the boat just so. Thanks for sharing.
