Washington Tuna Fishing Info

[Whole in the Water]

Anybody out there gone on any Tuna fishing charters out of Westport Washington?

Me and my fishing buddies would like to try this out, but don't know anything about it. We would prefer a boat that takes less people to avoid the 'gong show' atmosphere if possible.

Does anyone know of some good charters/guides to hook up with down there? Thanks for your replies.

I did it years ago with an OK charter that's now left town.

Overall I was less than impressed with what I saw, boats where they used handlines, other ones where there were no bunks you were expected to sit up all night and then fish in the AM.

There's an active WA state forum on BD http://www.bloodydecks.com/forums/washington-state-usa/

Thanks for the honest response Dogbreath. You can never be too careful when planning a charter with potentially unreputable outfits...research, research, research.

Thanks for the link, looks great.
