You might want to add scuba gear for your lemmings when you try this, buddy. Bluefin tuna are known for pulling people out of boats and under water with the forces at play. Why do you think people are strapped into a fighting chair that is secured more deeply to the boat than the cleats and just about any other hardware? When those connections break and yer still strapped into a fighting belt, you go painfully over the side. In the first 30 seconds, you will have lost all of the air in your lungs from pure fright. Over the next minute, you will have past several atmospheres worth of depth without the abiliy to equalize. Should I go on with the results of when that happens?

IF, you were able to hook one of these things (your chances range from Zero to Highly-Unlikely), at worst you would become a human torpedo and at best, you would loose all the gear that took you months (years) to save up for. Besides, you would need someone else to catch the Bluefish to begin with, right? :P

Just drilling little holes in the hull of your plan... S#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g out all the fun, ya know??

As on the wonderful show "Jackass", don't be stupid enough to try this at home...
