[quote name='eatfish' post='13749' date='Feb 23 2009, 05:37 PM']I did make a couple of trips out of Pt Judith. Did pretty good. It was very early in my boating. Planning on hitting it pretty hard this year. Oh yeah.... got 7 bluefin last season on my buddies boat. Had one break the outrigger in two on my boat. So it ended up excellant tuna season for me!!!!
Back to the Squids..... definatly using the boat!!! you know the ratio of fish between boats and the shore!![/quote]
I have never taken my boat out squidding, but I think I will try it this year. Glad to hear you had success with the tuna last year...I didn't get out a whole lot as I was working on my fathers camp in Maine. Some friends had a great year. They do alot of trolling though, I haven't gone to the dark side yet and I just throw spinning tackle and fly tackle at them. I am concerned that the size of the tuna might not allow for this method this year...at least not with the equipment I have, might be time to step up to a Van Staal and a heavier stick (yea right, not quite in my budget).
