I got the tuna bug last year, too. So much fun. Boat with 9 fishing caught 80 and I reeled in 20 of those I'll definitely pack a couple swim baits in my bag when I go out in late August. Now what is the proper etiquette on a charter for throwing swimbaits? I imagine you head to the bow as all the bait wranglers are headed to the stern. The boat is usually turned after hooking up a fish on the troll, so do you throw to the inside of the turn? Also, Todd said braided line, but I heard braid is bad juju on charters as it can cut other lines. Thoughts?

OK OK,the list goes like this: #1 Stamely #2 Matt (Gilly) & Neal M #3 Jerry Garcia #4Parker The #5 spot goes to "FLY" but keep in mind that he can cut anyone mentioned above off like it was nothin if he can get away from the remodel long enough.The guy in the #1 spot is so easy he's like a "PROM DATE" a for sure thing.Good luck, STRIKE ZONE Put my name ahead of Parker's--- look it's already been done. I would really like a tuna trip, and I don't get seasick.

Why torment Stam, Strike Zone, Todd, and Jerry Garcia? It's what I do.

Sorry about re-railing the thread, but found this on Ifish. Sums it up nicely. Link: Catching tuna with swimbait lures
