Caleb Murray was exhilarated catching a giant southern bluefin tuna in rough seas off South Australia's south-east.
Caleb Murray achieved his goal of catching a "barrel" tuna in South Australia's south-eastA blind amateur fisherman who fulfilled his dream of catching a giant tuna off South Australia's south-east coast says people with disabilities should be given the opportunity to pursue even extreme hobbies.
The trip to Port MacDonnell was his fourth to the South East in pursuit of a "barrel" tuna, rather than smaller tuna that travel in schools. "They've been able to encourage me to chase those goals so ... within reason, there's nothing really that's out of reach. "Ask the question, get the supports around you and chase your own goals because it's pretty easy to sit back in a corner and be pretty bored."He said he was confident Mr Murray could catch such a large tuna, having seen his ability with the rod and reel."He's a very keen fisherman. He's been trying for a long time to get one and it was great to finally get him connected to a big fish like that and tick that off his bucket list.
