Yea, but it's a + in the ledger, not a -...bait 'n fuel for another tuna search...don't forget Marciano did it last year & they got a fish..the charter guys each got a turn,a shirt and a major memory...they seemed most appreciative for crankin' the handle...
Bill puts too much onus on the charter to "keep it tight" & "they don't know"!!!Didn't look like it to me..seemed like the charter was doing a pretty good job...
Question for Dave(Tuna.Com)...I know it'd take longer to get the fish to the harpoon and it would probably fetch less at the buyer, but wouldn't easing off on the drag help improve the catch/pulled hook ratio? Don't really know what it is, but from the show, it seems pretty bad... Drags set at 50-60#? Bluefin's mouth isn't iron plus the fish's inherent weight generates a lot of preloaded drag, or not?
inquiring minds would like to know
