As Capt. John Explained it they received covered up with yellowfin and the massive lady grabbed a bait in the melee. As the yellowfins were landed, the baits ended up wound in to the rigger clips and dangled just over the waterline. The Battle with the Eyeball had her to the back of the boat, nicely a pod of yellowfin arrived up with her and all hell broke loose on the dangling baits as ten to twelve tuna crashed the side of the Thats Right 3 came tight and 2 produced a beeline for the back of the boat and minimize the line on the Eyeball as she swam out of sight.
These days they had some organization amid the pods of Pilot Whales:

Slovenia & Moscow Jigging and Popping??????
quote: on a 360tuna report from Marc Inoue of Slovenia and his close friends Ivan, Igor and Lilia which came all the way from Moscow to fish at PSFL, Massive surprise on how common Jigging and popping have gotten all about the entire world:
Hello there guys
I was planing to put this report on very a while in the past, but I was rather tied up with perform after I returned from my trip!
Greater late than never ever
I have been seeking to go to Panama for several years previously, but it was either time, income, or the absence of men and women to accompany me, that stored me from likely until finally this yr!
Soon after reading through all the phenomenal reviews about John, and PSFL I made the decision to, give his operation a attempt, and to keep with him!
Truthfully – all my expectations have been not satisfied, they were exceeded!
From the rooms, to the support, the food, the captains, and most importantly the fishing – almost everything was very first class!
The only issue I dont like is the fact, that I will have to wait for practically one particular yr before heading back
In the course of our six days of fishing we caught pretty a lot every thing, that you could inquire for, when fishing the Pacific coast of central America!
Properly I just desired to express my gratitude, and statisfaction, and suggest PSFL to absolutely everyone who thinks about fishing in Panama!
Appreciate some pics!

Small Boat, Big Yellowfin!
Just in from Archer SuperBars Hawaii ProStaff member Courtland Pang:
Went out fishing on a friends 19-foot Arima and got lucky. Took an early early morning double strike with the two outriggers crashing down. The stbd rigger was pulling an Archer JT Special RuckusRaiser (RR) and the port had an Archer Professional MeatBall on it they certain do operate to attract the fish!
As the two of us cleared the other lines, the port fish unbuttoned. But the stbd rod was still bent and the reel loudly protesting! With about 600 yards of line out and nary a splash to be observed, we figured we had hooked, not a marlin but as an alternative, the highly sought following ahi (YFT). After numerous minutes, we noticed colour and woohoo! the lovely form of an ahi behind the RR. A number of a lot more turns of the reel and the RR was in the vicinity of the rod suggestion, the RRs principal leader in hand, and game more than! After brining the fish down we worked the location for a short whilst, hoping the other 1 or its cousins had been even now all around, but no far more enjoy and with limited ice and storage on our modest boat, we went house.
We believed the fish to be 120-one hundred thirty lbs and the 55L and 40.5G calculated out to 153 lbs.

Small boat seen offshore question
We took a 20 foot mako to the tip of the Poormans The moment. I would by no means do that again – I was a lot younger and a lot dumber.
I did see a man fishing the Jackspot the moment in a 16 foot jon boat. It was one particular of the smaller jon boats – brief transom/shaft style with a tiller outboard.
I just heard the report of a 22 footer sinking sixty miles off Ocean Metropolis.
