What a difference a year makes. Here it is mid-January and I'm already getting inquiries about tuna trips. So even though tuna season is still 7 months out, it's probably a good idea start getting an idea of who, and how many, want to give this a shot. No commitments, or carving out charter dates at this point.
When the time comes to start booking dates, I feel safe in saying the charter @Nick Clayton works for out of Westport will be the primary WFF choice. That said, this is about expanding/exploring/promoting PNW albacore as a fly-fishery, not a specific operation or business. As far as I'm concerned this is open to anyone arranging a trip with any charter, or any private boat. The more the merrier!
Also, one useful bit of info to add with your name, would be a preferred timeframe (if any). That could be very helpful choosing crewmates. The season typically starts mid-July and runs through early October. With the better fly fishing (again, "typically") later in the season.
Can't wait. It's looking like a whole new ball game this year!
