Since they went out of Portmagee, I'd call those Irish tuna!


I know exactly where it is , i said ireland so people wouldnt start stating all other different countries!!!


Ah, gotcha now. Dunno, apart from the Bluefin tuna fishery up here off Donegal, but those are a lot larger fish than these ones, plus I don't think there's been any caught for the last couple of years. Still, the new season should be kicking off any day now, so who knows?

lovely !!! Any "how to" available ?
id like to catch one of these.
--------------------------------
Any advise would be appreciated:
1. How far from shore ?
2. Rigs? (any weights required ?)
3. Lures ?
--------------------------------
There are tons of videos but none explain the basic set-up.

Thanks

Do I not recall some Tuna report from last year? Pictures of a boat dripping in blood spring to mind.
