Tuna Trolling
Fishing: Tuna preparation for the trip: gear / tackle?
Doing deep-sea tuna trip in January out of Port Aransas, TX. Usually they get Blackfin, yellowfin tuna and AJs. Looking for advice on gear. I'm Penn 9 / 0 reel is a 6 / 0 rod, the image that should work fine, it is generally spool 60lb test. Advise the Director of the yarn and Hook Size drift bait? How long is the manager? Artificials: any ideas on good bait for trolling? Is also looking for bait loops smaller rod ... I've heard of "irons" and "darts" can someone tell me what these are? I'm thinking of it as slab.Reccomendations? All answers or other suggestions would be appreciated .-
Wow! I do not know to fish for bluefin tuna in January. Very cool! Penn 9 / 0 is a big reel. If you are happy its size, by all means go for it. Usually you can get away with 4 / 0 60 pound line is good. But if you want to troll, 80 pound test is a good start. I do not know what get the bait. We tend to use small mackerel, Bonito or live squid for bait. We use a sardine or anchovy bait the bigger the bait are not available. So, bring a good range of hooks, just to be safe. I tend to bring hooks as small as size 2 all the way up 9 / 0 That range of sliding egg sinkers as well. 1 / 8 2 oz is good enough for most situations. As director, I like to be at least the length of the rod I'm using. I use at least 2x the length of the rod, if I'm tossing irons or jigging. Prefer fluorocarbon leaders. What irons Tady 45 and 77 is a good area. You can use the Salas or UFO if you want; difference is negligible. I seek as quickly as I could, then gradually slow down until I got hit. Fast pick you up aggressive (most want to bite) to fish first. You can also try to yo-yo-den, speed jigging. You need to use heavier jigs yo-yo-ing. Sumo is doing a rather nice jojo irons. I like the Sumo Jr or Tady 4 / 0 yo-yo-ing. I do not know what colors are good in their own territory. But the blue / chrome, blue / white, green / white and green / yellow, all working pretty well here. I'd recommend the use braid for tossing irons. Many of the discs, which seem to and it feels good jig stick are usually not enough to mono. If you happened to hook lunker, there is a chance that you get spooled if you fill out jigging reel with mono. There is also a revolutionary butterfly Currencies. I finally get to try them this year, and they are quite scary! You could drop it straight down, until it hit the bottom and retrieve it back as quickly as you can. You can also vertical jig and work it back to 2-4ft at a time. I must warn you, these butterfly jigs are very effective in the bottom of the species. If you do not want to base a species, you have to count down until it reached a desired depth. That was a pretty good yellowtails while vertical jigging and speed jigging around Southern California. I think it works very nicely AJ's as well. Shimano butterflies are effective but expensive. Williamson made jigs that cost much less, but worked very similar to the Shimano Currencies. Otherwise, the long head really helps when speed jigging. Knots combined with the Head of the ECML works "until the end of" warning, slamming your own ice Fishing Rod tip is not so fun. LOL
