We are going to give it a shot tommorow,it's a wonder I can get the seacraft to float after all the #^&#^&#^&#^& that goes in it for one tuna trip. Life raft,survival suits,3 batteries,60 gallon livewell,8 rods,120 gals of gas,2 litres of cherry coke and 2 old guys . Did I mention the peanut butter and crackers for lunch :) PRBuzz 06-04-2011, 01:53 PM I'll be out tomorrow somewhere on the southern/eastern bank area. Give a shout on 68 "Buzz". I'll be really all :) if I can boat a 57-59", although my lifetime best of a >73" won't be without :jump: ! chathamblue30 06-04-2011, 02:23 PM See you out there Buzz,we will be out of Marshfield on a black seacraft in the same area Mark niko 06-04-2011, 04:55 PM good luck guys. buckman 06-06-2011, 08:07 AM Not good out there this weekend. we saw one small fish caught. Had one swing and a miss. Few whales. Should be improved by next week. Kinda looking like a 09 repeat. chathamblue30 06-06-2011, 09:43 AM No fish here either,one takedown may have been a bass or small tuna on the mack but that was the day. May try seal fishing soon seems to be quite a few out there,any ideas on leader size and bait preference :) PRBuzz 06-06-2011, 09:57 AM I must have traveled 100 miles scouting and trolling and saw no signs of tuna. We were out looking by 5:30AM and spots were void of boats (I think we were the 1st out there), came back a couple hours later and the spot was filled with boats and still no tuna? Did I miss the party? fishsmith 06-06-2011, 12:56 PM They must be killing em with all these bad reports :tooth: I'm finally getting out tomorrow on the hunt for cod/haddock , looks like a bluebird day, which usually means a tough day for tuna, but we'll have the gear if their around. codfeesh 06-06-2011, 01:34 PM hey mark any cod around out there?or you just go for tuna? chathamblue30 06-06-2011, 01:38 PM Hey pal,yeah the cod fish has been great on the bank,they are heading more into the deeper water now. Give me a shout if you need a deck hand be happy to fill the CODFEESH up :) keeperreaper 06-06-2011, 04:45 PM Zero for me also. Tons of bait and stripers but no charlie. Sporty on the way in to say the least. Next weekend hopefully will be better. PRBuzz 06-06-2011, 04:58 PM Zero for me also. Tons of bait and stripers but no charlie. Sporty on the way in to say the least. Next weekend hopefully will be better. At least you had bait! Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device Moses 06-06-2011, 05:49 PM Yup, same (nothing landed) for me. Hit it hard all day saturday covering tons of ground over a 9 hr period. All lower 1/3 of Stellwagon around the backside to golf ball, in and out 7 miles. Didn't see one whale or any birds working. Plenty of bass in & around Race Pt but tuna was prime target. chathamblue30 06-06-2011, 05:49 PM Ok if Matt did not catch anything I at least have some self respect left ! taJon 06-06-2011, 06:38 PM Zero for me also.

This weekend should be great Typhoon 06-07-2011, 07:46 AM Steve how did you and Jeff do? We kept to the SWC and the Notch Saturday trying to save gas. No birds, no bait, no marks. Of course I had plenty of bait and my 3 rod spread looked beautiful. When the fish show up there will be no bait. buckman 06-07-2011, 08:00 AM Steve how did you and Jeff do?

After we got our fill on bass, we headed out again looking for tuna. We ended up finding them but only had a chance at them for about 5 minutes before the fish sounded and were gone. We casted at them, through them but no touch. I was shaking with excitement til we hit the docks. This was my first experience tuna fishing and have caught the bug. Already trying to figure out when I can get out again. Heard from our captain that some large fish were hooked the past few days and a 90+" fish was lost at the boat. fish4striper 06-09-2011, 12:35 PM Was out on a charter on Sunday and had a slow morning looking for tuna but was distracted for about an hour with acres and acres of bass.
