BC ya man! you got good eyes. you most know those roller guides
to be able to spot them. I have 3 Penn 80 stw,the biggest before 130's.
I've got a 25 ft. boat w/225 Yam. 4 stroke. I live on Marthas Vinyard,
Mass. I've fished my boat 50-60 miles south of here but easy place to fish for me is Provinctown Ma. My biggest tuna was 660 lbs. could'nt get it in the boat, had to tow it back to P-town.I only got 3,200.$
For in-shore we got bonito, false albacore, blues, striped bass.
All in season, nothing to catch now. Water to cold.
You got stripers on the west coast, I've read. How bout blue fish?

Man, that sounds like a hell of a time! Biggest we get over here in Calli is some 50lb albacore. Still a hell of a job to get em in the boat though!

When I tuna fish I use live blue or striper from 2-8 lbs. I just started
using kites to keep my baits away from the boat and leader out of the water.

Yeah, I wish I had the money to head over the the east coast or down to Mexico, but it was hard enough scraping together the $350 for my latest rig.

Rig? Rod or gun?

Rod. I needed something that was better suited to the larger albies we get over here.

My tuna sticks cost 1300$ w/out line. Bent buts with 130 lb ya cant "stand up" gotta keep in holder.
D'you troll or live line?

Troll until we get in a hot spit, then we live line. I wish I could experience the kind of fishing you do, I an hardly scrape enough money together to go out on a party boat a couple times a season! Then again, there is something satisfying about just using your arms- no holders or straps.

*cough* off topic *cough*

i will get a pic up of my workshop as soon as i can clean it out, which will probably be never. its nothing special, just a bandsaw and a drill press and a bunch of little tools, mostly no power tools though.

Erm.. sorry 'bout that. Moderators should probably stay on topic :oops:
