FISH the KITE - It's a Helluva Bite! ~ Kite Fishing
for Bluefin Tuna
 |
Winslow with bluefin hooked by kite, fought |
What makes tuna fishing even more exciting? ... KITE FISHING!
Kite fishing allows the captain to dangle a bait right at the surface - this teases the bluefin into rocketing to the surface to snag its prey.
We fly the kite to run the line up and away from the boat - somewhat like a "flying" outrigger.
The HIT is INCREDIBLE.
The hit - as a bluefin clears the surface to grab the bait suspended from the kite - is awesome
Tthe reel screams .. all hands man their stations to clear lines for the first angler.
Kite fishing made for many more hookups than other techniques last year. It's great to be hooked up battling a fish while others troll by!
TUNA HUNTER crew will instruct anglers in the use of all tackle, reeling techniques and in tactics necessary to battle your bluefin.
School and Medium tuna are fought standup on light tackle. TUNA HUNTER has belts, gloves and harnesses to legally assist you as you battle your bluefin.
Our mates will coach and maintain all lines clear, while Capt Gary maneuvers Tuna Hunter for optimal action and efficiency.
We do everything in our power to help you boat that fish.
