Getting the itch

I have started ordering gear to make up some ballyhoo pin rigs. Also ordered a bunch of zukers to add to the spread and a lot more Joe Shutes. I love trolling....

Debating weather to install swivel rod holders or go stand up. Anyone have any thoughts. BTW I’m just getting into the tuna game chased them a few times, just starving for information

When I fish for tuna on the bank I use bent butt rods and live bait. Lots of ways to catch those things. Spinning gear with plugs or RonZ. ,trolling,mackerel....

I plan a couple South Side "school tuna" trips this high summer. I have not done this for about 8 years; but want to restart. My logs from years past seem to indicate no yellowfins or albacore much before 4th week in July.

Is this still a logical time table?

Bonds,
