Re: Gambler 36 hr tuna
Thanks for putting the report up, Chuck.
The weather forecast had looked good for that trip right up until the night before.
The wind was supposed to hold-off until 7am. I figured by then we would pick-up and try on the flats, drifting in the whales and life we had seen on Tuesday. But, by 2AM it was already honking.
At times, during the dark, the yellowfin could be seen shooting through the chunks. But with the boat swinging on anchor like it was, it was difficult to get a hooked-fish within gaffing range.
Headed out tonight. Looking forward to calmer seas.
