How to Catch a Tuna

Male Speaker: We have got a trolley rig here, we have got International, this is two speed. Here's my fish, here's my albacore right here. Alright. Nice albacore, big albacore, using a Zucker Feather trolley, Penn International, 6 gear rod, ugly stick rod. Male Speaker: He really ate that thing. Male Speaker: Yeah, he wanted it. Male Speaker: He liked that feather. Male Speaker: Yeah, he sure did. Male Speaker: Excellent! Male Speaker: Alright man, thanks. That's my first albacore in a couple of years, it's cool. This is the first year they have been biting really good, so hopefully we get a lot more, we have about five or six going right now. Long way to go. Male Speaker: Guys, check out your slide winder. Male Speaker: Nice fish. Male Speaker: Yeah Male Speaker: There you go, nice fish. Male Speaker: Nice albacore. Male Speaker: What number are you? Male Speaker: Five. Male Speaker: A couple of albacore we just caught, there is another fish right here. Nice albacore. Where are we at, butterfly? Male Speaker: I was just asking, we are actually 20 miles East of the Cortes Bank, that explains the weather. Male Speaker: So we are about 80 miles out at sea, we are out by the Cortes Bank. I don't know, is it further than 80 miles? Male Speaker: Right around 80 miles. Male Speaker: Right around 80 miles. Male Speaker: This is where we are fishing for a albacore. So far the bite has been on the lure, where we have about four or five big fish, and now we are hoping to get into that one big spool, where everybody gets a fish on a live bait or jig. So we are going to keep doing this fishing out here, working this area. So when we return, we would be right back here with the International Star, picking for more albacore.
