Popular Post Josh Posted September 26 Popular Post Share Posted September 26 So down on hols with the family booked a nice long stint to favour a few weather windows but it’s been absolutely miserable for getting out. and in fairness it’s been wrong a lot the forecast has been an absolute no no then Iv been out and about on the shoreline and it’s been nothing of the sort. So lost a couple more days there Anyway friends were down aswell so when it did come good for two days only we got out on day 1 Was straight into strings of jumbo mackerel headed on out and took another bait stop at about 6miles to be greeted with a thresher tail about 50ft from the boat thrashing on the surface. With a couple of marks under the boat, I fired some live baits Straight down. Gave it a while then was being gravitated out deeper. upon arriving the 10mile range we saw lots and lots of dolphins the odd tuna so we thought must be a lot of bait here let’s give it a go. after a few hrs we got a take and shortly after lost it. Pulled the hook. when we returned to the harbour just outside the entrance we saw sprays of baitfish not sure what fish and tuna breaching in 40ft of water. Amazing sight. day 2 we headed out deeper and I’m not kidding the entire day it wasnt a balls of busting tuna it was just 3 or 4 sometimes 20 odd visibly feeding then disappearing For hours. eventually one of the floats went down On a big scad bait this was a tuna smaller ones yes actually the smallest sizes Iv seen here. But my friends Ed’s 3rd time lucky at landing one so after a short 15min fight he had her along side very pleased for him. re set the floats Bang within minutes were on again other mate Ash is on and a very similar fight slightly longer very similar size fish. only me to go to have a real red letter day here reset the floats and you guessed it within minutes we are on again I wasn’t so fortunate as after a short fight the fish was very close the hook popped out, shame ! oh well it happens. Grateful to of had such an amazing day but it would have been nice to get out a bit more Next stop Norway Josh mike farrants, Dicky, thejollysinker and 6 others 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malc Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 Well worth the effort, I've never seen tuna feeding on the surface and look forward to seeing it someday. Josh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
