... to start thinking about about tuna!
Hoping we'll have a somewhat normal albacore season this year. There was some great fishing last year but it was tough to predict when and where.
Careful planning will be my motto this year. Time and money will be limited for me with a trip to Hawaii and some home improvement projects in the works. Fortunately we're starting to get a solid core group of tuna junkies together, so I think setting up trips will be much easier.
Always looking for new recruits though. I'd also dig seeing others setting up fly rod tuner trips. I've got my favorite boat out of Garibaldi, but I think the Westport fleet is suffering from extreme fly rod deficiency. Somebody really needs to step up and fix that.
Feel free to use this thread for the following:
》Enlist as a tuna recruit
》Arrange trips
》Tuna fly gear/rigging discussions
》Post tuna/bluewater pics and video porn
》Tuna recipes, home canning, smoking (yum)
》Post classified links to buy/sell/trade tuna fly gear
》Ask anything tuna related
》Escape the steelhead and salmon fishing blues
EDIT: Adding a list to keep track of those expressing interest:
- SeattleFarq
- JohnB
- Stuart_Stringer
- iPhish
- james_jimenez
- Kfish
- cabezon
- Bruce Baker
- Jeff Bandy
- DimeBrite
- PhilR
