A giant northern bluefin tuna weighing hundreds of kilos stunned Sydney fish mongers on Tuesday, after being caught in waters of the NSW mid north coast.
The 271kg giant pacific bluefin tuna was caught off the coast of Coffs Harbour and is the "biggest ever" received at the markets in Pyrmont.
The giant fish is about four times the average size of a mature fish of its species, a spokesperson for the Sydney Fish Markets told news.com.au.
