Tuna that is. Such a boring wind prognosis has me thinking about tuna fishing. Only tried it once, went out to the Hippolytes with a mate in a tinnie with seriously underpowered gear - ended up feeding one seal and just getting all our gear trashed. Good fun though!
Have wondered about doing a chartered trip with a pro - all the right gear provided, put in the right spot for some action, might actually re-coup the trip cost with fillets in the freezer. I've seen ads for charters that cost about $140 per person for a group of ten.
So putting forward the idea, anyone interested for a forecasted flat sunny weekend sometime over winter, would be good to get a group booking.
Anyone had experience with these charters? It sounds a lot, but when I went with my mate it cost 50 bucks each in fuel for car and boat, lost heaps of line and lures, with nothing to show for it.
What are the odds of 10 of us each bagging a 20kg+ tuna?
What do'ya reckon? (we can discuss while waiting for wind at Doran's!)
