Default Re: Newport Get together check in

Nice meeting all you guys. That was a lot of fun, I'm sure I'll come down next year too! Thanks for the Tuna tips, on the way home we saw about 12 different schools of tuna making the water boil, so we fished for about 15 minutes (had to get home in time to catch the launch) and got 1 tuna in the boat out of 3 hookups. One fish popped off for no reason, one peeled off line for about 30 seconds, tried to spin the boat around to chase it but snapped the line at the last second as we tightened the drag before we were spooled. He got away with a lure.

The one we got in the boat was enough to feed 14 people last night along with some leftovers for today! I can't wait to go back down later this week, hopefully they'll still be around!
