Wondering if anyone has come across schools of tuna in the harbour area? Any info appreciated

G'day mate, there was a big school of Longtail around channel rock around 2hours after the bottom of the tide on Friday arvo, bustin up for 30-40mins. We got one on the first pass trolling halcos, so kept trying that but never got another, probably should have pulled up and thrown some chromies. I'll put a pic up if I can work out how

Nice tuna. I'm surprised you got 1 by trolling. Casting into them is a way better option IMO

We used to get long tails trolling barra classics around the school but definately a better hit rate with chromies.

There were tuna around the 6 mile this afternoon. We couldn't hook any but I saw another couple of boats land some.

Yeah I was there again, they weren't busting up anywhere near as much. I got one to the boat on my little Stradic, good fun, but it pulled the hooks under the boat. Saw another bloke get 2. They were cruising around just below the surface in schools of 4 or 5.

Saw a single bird yesterday on a mission so I followed it hoping it was looking for a feed. Not a thing

Sounds like stalking to me

stalking isnt a crime unless you get caught

Hi BJ,
Yeah, that was me carrying on and trying to point out where the pods were. Good fishing, it's not often you can polaroid cruising Longtails. Hooked another one on a Subsurface stick bait and Ultralight Baitcasting Gear after you left but didn't stay connected unfortunately.
Cheers,
John.
