They looked for boiling balls of bait/birds which usually means the tuna are boiling to which you can see....bailed overboard in and amongst to see what they could hit. Awesome hearing the guy who hit talk about it. Hit one and lost and it and number 2 came over the rail.

That was the claim even though it looks like it might lay down on Saturday

Probably a busy season for him but in my opinion his boat is very capable but I respect the captains decision

Ukee harbour is full of commercial tuna boats they came in Tuesday night for Wednesday's blow and don't seem to be in a hurry to get back out. Of course they go farther than sport boats usually and it does look like 2-3 meters farther out, which they can handle, but the beer is here in town.

If it’s too rough your gear doesn’t fish right too

You can string two clones on one leader to keep the lure down it's somewhat effective.

That’s a bummer you didn’t get out.
I had canceled a tuna trip for Saturday. The problem being that I was needed to commit to a mediocre weather forecast two days out. I personally make my weather calls in the morning of my outings. If weather is acceptable we go but if not we don’t. To call a group of guys to town for tuna because the forecast says the seas MIGHT lay down is not something i’m going to do. If my group said they would be in town and in position if the weather cooperates we go tuna and if not we fish salmon I would have been good with that. Too bad because the weather did end up being decent and we would have been out there. Tuna fishing was good yesterday.
There still is opportunity for you to get out this year! Don’t give up just yet.

That is the reality of tuna fishing. A slight change in the winds 50 miles offshore when it’s a lake 25 miles out wrecks things
