Wow! That has to suck. Could there have been a bigger fish following the tuna that decided the fisherman would do just as well for a snack? Or, did the tuna take take the man for a deep dive from which he couldn’t recover? Was he tethered to a pole so couldn’t release himself? I know nothing about tuna fishing, so have no idea.

Probably the case- Tuna are extremely powerful swimmers- built for speed and power-

[[Was he tethered to a pole so couldn’t release himself?]]

Sounds like he must have been- had the pole been loose- He coudla just let go- but i suppose the line coulda wrapped around him as he got yanked into the ocean and pulled him under too, or the fishing reel or hooks on the pole coulda snagged his clothing too- lot can go wrong-
