Tuna in the Dark

Left Cohasset for the BE at 6pm and saw heavy bird action on Flats ledge about 7 miles out of Cohasset but after seeing no breaks contimued out to the BE bouy. Had 3 Squid bars and 3 Dasiey Chains on Birds out by 7:05PM and had a hit in 10 minutes bus droped after 15 seconds. It was cool because it was on the Squid bar 30' back and both of us saw the hit. We fished around the "BE" until dark and set the autopilot for the course back to the house. We kept the spread in for 2-3 miles before pulling them in one at a time stowing them away as they came in. My question is will Tuna hit a lure after dark? We had the boat at the dock by 9:30 and was home by 9:45. Plan on more evg. trips but getting underway sooner than 6... more like 4:00. There was a nice Grady out there also...

PS... The Raymarine S1000 autopilot is like having an extra person on board that steers straight and eats or drinks no supplies...
