If you need proof that Chunking works then read this report

Today's report reminds us that the longtime little used method of chunking still works. In fact, several boats have recently noted that tuna were biting on the chunk. It seems to odd to many anglers that tuna will bite on a small piece of dead meat floating or sinking slowly at moderate depths, say, the upper 60 feet. Even stranger, so will wahoo, and I have the underwater video to prove it.

American Angler is on the way home with a great catch, one that will be matched by the other boats now fishing. The AA will be in Thursday morning, with the Red Rooster III coming the next day and the Royal Star the day after Excel and Royal Polaris look to be arriving next Monday. There are many big tuna on all the boats with at least a couple of supercows among them.
