tuna fisherman
Ocean's big-game pursuer
A tuna fisherman is someone who catches tuna commercially or recreationally.
Commercial tuna fishing operates at industrial scale, with crews working longlines, purse seines, or pole-and-line operations targeting bluefin, yellowfin, or skipjack.
Recreational tuna fishermen pursue the sport for the challenge—large tuna are powerful fighters.
