Yellowfin Tuna

What can I say about yellowfin tuna? They're amazing. I've caught them before on long-range charter boats and I can't wait to take the Black Rose into the blue waters south of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket to look for them in 2007. They fight like mad and it's not uncommon for a school of them to hit every lure that you have in your spread. If you are running more lines than you have people...you're in trouble! I'd like that type of trouble. They're most commonly 40-60 pounds in our waters, but the bigger 100-200 pounders are out there in the canyons!

You'll never forget your first yellowfin tuna!!
