Deep Sea Fishing for Tuna

We went tuna fishing the other day, as guests aboard friends of ours huge 43 foot fishing boat. The fishing grounds were close to Clarence Town, so the ride out did not take too long. We had a blast, and were targeting the yellowfin tuna that are found here. These local guys have got the program down really well, they know how to target these particular fish, and by the time we got to the boat, they already had been out, getting live bait called pilchards. There was about 200 or more of these 8-10 inch long fish already swimming around in the livewell when we got to the boat, and we knew this was going to be a fun day!

It was really calm that day, the sea was like glass. The heat was also like glass, molten glass! We all did what we could to stay cool, darting in and out of the interior of the air conditioned boat, and wearing hats and staying hydrated.

We made a video, and we hope that you enjoy it! Thanks again to the Malis's , owners of the fishing boat ConchQuest out of Clarence Town, Long Island Bahamas. If you would like a trip, contact me, and I can put you in touch with them, you won't regret it!
