I am happy to report that the Shogun and Tuna Center team have taken the jinx out of Friday the 13th. We have found the perfect bluefin tuna for collection. Captain Norm put us on a school that was chowing on a bait ball of small sardines. The Shogun crew quickly tossed out a lot of live sardines. We all snapped into action and put out our 30-50 lb test lines with barbless circle hooks and voila- we had hook ups on small bluefin.. The swim step team (Ty and Louise) that had been drilling on albacore were quick to step into action and rapidly placed live bluefin into the vinyl stretchers. Fish were coming in from both directions and they rapidly placed them into the hands of a deck team who guided the fish into the shogun wells filled with aerated seawater. The fish were the perfect collection size from 18-25 lbs. We have a total of 8 fish on board we're continuing to look and will head into to unload tomorrow morning at the dock.
