nice video, man those tuna sniper rods are long

Moses 11-05-2010 03:19 PM

I was able to fight his fish for a few minutes while he took a rest. The rod really feels nice, has plenty of backbone. It is longer than traditional tuna spinning rods but does cast a country mile.

thinking of adding that setup to the arsenal this winter. nice fish

"The boat went 4 for 6 with the biggest 74"! Maybe that is why they are on TV.:rotf2:

If thats what puts someone on tv I had a front row seat to something that makes that look like childs play !

The only comfort I find in this forecast is that I have a work trip Wed-Fri this week. It's still days away so the end of next week could still change for the better. Not to sound selfish but it would be complete agony for me if I was away and the forecast was sweet. Hope it turns better for next weekend but time is ticking away.........

I too have work commitments which keeps me on the ground through Thursday, here's hoping that Friday and beyond quiets down. Think the tuna will wait for Mother Nature to get her act together?

I'm holding out till the last minute. Anyone have a garage I can rent for a 21" footer over the winter?????????????

keeperreaper 11-08-2010 06:39 AM

There were tuna caught in December last year. We should get one more window hopefully.

big jay 11-08-2010 07:48 AM

2 or 3 years ago Tommy D on the Bigfish got 3 on December 11th.

A couple of big noreasters will clear the big body of fish off the bank - if it just keeps getting cold, but no storms, we'll be good for quite a while.

niko 11-08-2010 08:12 AM

i caught my first tuna on bigfish for my bachelor party, my handsome mug is in the brochure
