How old should I be before going tuna fishing?

Posted by genglish on Oct 26, 2011

I’m really into fishing and I like when they put up a fight but I dont know how old I should be before going out for tuna

If you’re old enough to post on this board (isn’t the minimum age 13?) you’re old enough. If you’ve got a dad along to help you, you can be half that age and get it done.

(Of course it helps if your dad runs the boat.)

But any teenager is as capable as any adult of landing a school-sized, 15-30 pound tuna, assuming he has the right tackle and knows how to use it. Bigger fish may be more of a challenge, but years ago I knew a small 14 year old kid who managed to land a 140 pound bluefin with standup tackle without assistance.

How do you rig a sardine for tuna fishing?

Posted by genglish on Oct 3, 2011

I am going on a 1.5 day charter trip on board the Prowler out of Fisherman’s landing in San Diego any help would be appreciated

Since the same guys gave the same answers to your anchovy fishing question, I’ll do the same.

For a sardine, collar hooking works, but many San Diego skippers recommend belly hooking. I’ve caught lots of fish with nose-hooked sardines, too, but I prefer collar hooking. Pinning the mouth shut will slow the bait, the last thing you want if the fish are picky. Check with the deckhand as to what’s been working the best, whether you’ll be fishing flyline (no weight), with a split shot, or even more weight.

Either way, change your bait frequently if it’s not bit, every 2-5 minutes. But the real trick is to get the liveliest bait out there in the liveliest condition. Find a clean one in the bait well (no red marks, no missing scales, swimming strongly), grab it and pin it on while handling it gently and as little as possible, and cast it out. If it doesn’t swim down within a second or two of hitting the water, haul it in and change it. Unless, of course, the tuna are exceptionally stupid, then it doesn’t matter.

If you end up in a "plunker" bite (one or two fish hooked up at a time, on a long drift, you’ll probably do best with a weighted bait let down gently off the drift side (the wind in your face side) of the boat, and soaked for a longer period (up to 10 minutes). If the fish are boiling on the surface, you’ll be fishing with no weight, casting off the stern. Don’t cast over other lines (especially people are hooked up) and pay attention to the crew telling the passengers to "step to the right" to follow the drift as the breeze blows the boat across the water.

Checking the reports, the tuna bites have been up and down. Some boats have made good catches of yellowtail and dorado, probably from kelp paddies, so you should be ready for anything.

(To Brad — the Prowler is a 65 foot boat, carrying 15-35 people, charter or open party. It’s not a "drink beer and the deckhand will hand you a bent rod" gringo charter.)


Tuna Fishing in the Gulf of Mexico – WARNING! Graphic Content.

Posted by genglish on Sep 19, 2011

WARNING!!! Video may be too graphic for children. Here’s the first Yellowfin Tuna I caught in the Gulf of Mexico. I was introduced to the “tuna virgin” ritual. The heart is rubbed on your cheeks, then you take a big bite. It was a bit of a surprise, but it made the experience memorable. If you’re interested in chartering a fishing trip in the Gulf of Mexico, I recommend calling Captain Andy Cook at (504) 319-7300 or Captain Brett Ryan at (504) 231-1842.

do you know any fishing companies or tuna companies or factories in guam?

Posted by genglish on Sep 13, 2011

im having research for fishing companies in guam since we are looking forward to find tuna in guam..

Well, there is the Guam Fishermen’s Coop. Here’s their website: http://www.guamfishermenscoop.com/

There are also little fish stores which are run by islanders from other islands like Chuuk and Palau. The flea market has fish for sale as well.

There really are no large scale fisheries on Guam. If someone on Guam wants fish, they would either buy the frozen bag of fish, go fishing, or go to the fishermens coop.
Fresh fish is really dependent on what has been caught instead of a specialized kind of fish.
