Tuna fishing can cost a lot of money. All the gear and line that you have to replace so often makes it impossible to be able to go when ever you would like. Not to mention gas/oil costs, which can be $60+. If you have a comerical licens which i would like to get this summer its not so bad. A fish can sell anywhere from 3$ a pound to 20$ depending on how much fat the meat has. The more fat the higher it sells.

When you go you have to anchor, But to avoid pulling around 500 feet of anchor line with an anchor at the bottem you need to put a ring attached to a tuna buoy, then you attack the line to boat and drive. WHen you drive away the buoy stays at the top and the anchor come to the top. When it hits the buoy it goes into the ring that the buoy is attached too. It gets stuck and the buoy goes underwater. When it goes down you putt in the buoy. It is very easy because your basicly just pulling in the line and the buoy.

My live well has a 1200 gallon per hour pump running through a 50 gallon live well that overflows through an out flow. I mounted a 1200 gallon blidge pump which is used for getting water out of you boat. When you put i on the back it pumps into the live well. you need one of these pumps because the ones the boat comes with dont pump enough. The water flows out through the side of the boat threw a threw hull fitting.

My boat is a 21' seacraft 2001. Its a pretty stable boat and very fishable when your are tuna fishing. I haven't put in my new swivel rod holders that let the rod spin all around. To put them in i need to support the rod holder with metal plates and 5200 marine glue. I have to cut new holes in the fiber glass to make new spots for the holders.

This X-Mass i got a tuna reel, a Penn international 80. I havent got a rod for it yet but I want to get a short rod aobut 4 feet with a bent butt. The line im putting on is 130 lb test Jenki line.
