Tuna has been a hit or miss story in this neck of the woods in the area you mentioned. If you want to run a few hours then its more hit than miss but if they show up in RI sound and the mouth of BB and Vineyard Sound is anyones guess. I have my fingers crossed. The good news is if they show...you should be able to target them on light spin gear or jigging. I only troll a spread when I run offshore.
As for fluke and other tasty bottom dwellers: This should not present a problem and is the mainstay of the boat fisherman here all summer. Bucktails with a strip of bait in deep water using braid should get the job done. You may need to stem the tide a little if it is running hard. If you put in a little time you will crack the code to the haunts of the mighty doormat running in the range of 8-14#
