The sun glints off the water. A boat bobs gently on the waves. Suddenly a flash of silver breaks the surface. A little tunny leaps into the air. Its streamlined body glistens in the light. The angler tenses ready for action. The fish dives back down. The chase begins. The reel sings as line peels out. The battle is on. Excitement builds as the fish fights hard. Finally it tires. The angler brings it alongside. A successful catch on a perfect day.
