Our position - Somewhere between Panama and Galapagos
The line peeled from the wide spool reel at an incredible pace. The angler struggled to lift the pole from the rod holder and to place it in his previously strapped on stand-up harness. His companion instantly took over control of the cockpit, wedging himself between the driver and the controls, and swiftly turned the boat 180 degrees in pursuit of the line heading off into the distance. "Don't stop reeling," he instructed, "until you can get some line back on that spool." The line was replenishing fast, but for the time being, he could only recover less than half of the 550 yards the reel was originally spooled with. "Charlie," the tuna that is, was not yet finished.Two hours later, after wearing out 3 men and locking up a new and very reputable reel, "Charlie" had to be hand lined in the rest of the way for the gaff. Ol' "Charlie," 70pound yellowfin tuna, had the odds of being lost in his favor, if it weren't for quick thinking on the part of an experienced fisherman aboard that day. Obviously, catching yellowfin tuna can in no way be equated with catching any inshore species— no matter what size you have encountered.
What is this page?
We are both enthusiastic sport fishers and on this page we will report on our fishing adventures. At the moment we are looking a fishing gear sponsor so this page is just an example, we haven’t caught a Tuna or sponsor....yet. At the top of the page is a banner for an imaginary sponsor and in the text are links to the gear the sponsor provided, this is one again just an example and not a real sponsor.
