Enjoyed that one and the earlier (?) one with no vocals. On both the Port corner rod sure got a workout.  I never did see what the terminal gear was- but make sure you don't lose it.
I counted a Lot of lines then found out you ran two handlines and a top rod also for 9?!?.   Good job not getting snarled up.
The Tuna size seemed moderate for October- but I'm always hoping for Bigger- haven't exceeded 28# yet though.  What month(s) was the linked video made?  Different crew and deck set ups indicate several trips but that port corner remained Hot!

 YOu asked for comments on the video- I can't help with the video- you have that dialed in, but Less music- MOre crew communication.  I'm also interested in gear and pattern set info

Nice. Well done. Music is good. Who wants to hear fisherman talk :jester:
Did not watch it all.  A hog at 4:35 :fishing:

AG has Not been Tuna fishing- though I've invited him several years... so he's not appreciative of the crew coordination needed during a hot bite.  Later in the video different crew are seen.   

HIs eyes are suspect too- 150 HP works well on a SR21

Yeah, we run 9 lines.  6 off the back that you can see.  One shotgun rod in the rocket launcher that was going off all the time in the video, and 2 handlines off the sides.  I have the pattern figured out over the years.  I can make almost a U turn without tangles :)

What port(s) are you fishing out of?
