How many tuner this year over your gunnels

TheChumStain · 09-28-2005, 09:52 AM

Since my vessel is in moth balls I haven't put one over my own gunnel this season. Good thing is I have good friends with boats so I could move my charters onto theirs along with working on their boats. Due to their fulltime jobs and one good friends addition to his family

I have had the chance to throw ALOT over the gunnel and bloody their boats

On the Little Debbie between Capt Phil, Myself and the UNNAMED captain

The DRUNKS with Broken Down of Wildwood have put a few hundred over the rail this season

In a tough year like this and with some boats not as busy I think we did fairly well, not Canyon Runner numbers but no bad since we are partimers

87 over the rail for us this year not to bad only goin a day or 2 a week sometimes not at all if all goes well in the next few years we'll be out there alot more with a much bigger boat alot of the tunas were only from 25-50 lbs mainly bft with some yellows to mix but bloods blood

Too many. ALOT of releases which i am happy and proud of. Alot of bluefin.

We had one day where we released over a dozen BFT and kept one 90 lb'r. We released another 90 lb'r shortly there after.

I would say in a total of NO MORE than 10 trips on our boat...about 100 fish caught and kept/or released.

276 caught, most released--roughly 115 bluefin, 31 longfin, 130 yellowfin.

zero bigeyes..

PRETTY WORK GUYS!!!

WHAT WAS THE NUMBER ONE KEY INGREDIENT TO YOUR SUCCESS?

TheChumStain · 09-29-2005, 07:17 AM

Keys are gettin the bait around the boat and keepin it there. First you find it, then you keep it or is needed short drift it if they won't stay with you and use chum or lights to hold it

The rest is waitin till the buggers are hungry and want to eat. There is nothing more frustrating than watchin the screen with tuner under Das Boat and they won't snap. Happened twice this year loaded up and we threw everything at them and they just weren't ready to eat.

Remember every time we walk by the friggy we don't eat so why should fish be any different.
