This was my first year where tuna was the specific target on trips.
1st trip - mid june out east of chatham and we hooked up. trolling bars and fish was ~85lbs
2nd trip - mid july near SWC and we hooked up. trolling bars and fish was ~90lbs
3rd trip - mid august east of chatham and we hooked up. trolling bars and fish was ~90lbs
4th trip - oct holiday weekend near SWC and we hooked up. After 2.5 hrs of no luck trolling, I caught my first on spinning gear and fish was ~115lbs
So, I went four for four was I was ecstatic about. All bars were dark (black, maroon, foil flash) with either a pearl or chartreuse stinger. Since I don't have another season to compare it against, I anxiously await this season.
