Electra 2 Day Tuna Trip

It's 9 am and we are on round 3 of the troll. We stopped at 3 kelp paddies with first one being productive. Lots of small firecracker yellowtail and I was hooked up first. 

Got it to the boat fairly quickly but wasn't sure if we should keep it or not. I asked to release it but the deckhand said just keep it. So it was gaffed and our picture was taken. 

So as tuna fishing goes we are trolling for a jig strike. 

Fast forward to 9/2 and I really don't want to finish this post (can't you tell?). 

So in a few words that trip sucked. 1 BFT on the troll of course on my rotation but not my rod. Took the guy around the boat and well that was it. 

I don't want to be negative but wow that trip was horrible. The boat was filthy the fish sat in the funny sacks all day not getting hose down or bled before they went in the sack. 

When I went to cook the fish it was pink in color and smelled like week old garbage. 

I was so disappointed and just defeated. Never going on that boat again and well that's the end of that..
