Tuna Fishing - The Great Adventure

There are few fishermen that wouldn't love to catch a record breaking fish. Fisherman love to catch the ?big one?, too often we cling to what we know to try and produce what we want. Fishermen are the same, it is when we start to branch out that we start to find new solutions. Tuna fishing is one option every fisherman should look into. Tuna fish are clever and cunning and have the potential to grow at limitless size. Those three things are what make tuna fishing such a unique experience and can draw you in. So after you decide to take on the challenge there are a few things you need to be warned about.

First Warning: Tuna fishing takes knowledge. If you think you will be able to jump on a boat and head out to fish for tuna you will be sorely disappointed. Tuna are smart and you need to know what you are up against. For instance, tuna travel in schools and travel extremely fast if you don't know that you won't know how to pursue them. If you don't know the typical size you won't have the right pole. You need to study before you go in order to have success.

Second Warning: Tuna fishing can be dangerous. They can be such large creatures that if you aren't properly equipped to handle the size of fish it can cause damage to you and the boat you are on. It is important to have the proper equipment when you head out so that you can ensure to be safe and prepared for what you will encounter. One of the biggest things you need is the right pole.

Third Warning: Have a plan. Don't just boat out one day with no idea of where you are going or where the fish are. Do some research on what the migration pattern is, if there are even tuna traveling in the area you are fishing it and make a plan of places to try and fish. The more research you do off the boat the better your chances are for being in the right spot when the big one gets hungry.

Tuna fishing is a great adventure, it is a challenge that isn't for every fisherman. However, the ones who chose to take it on will be greatly rewarded and they will have memories that will last. Tuna fishing starts with studying and research and ends with the satisfaction of reeling in a fish that breaks all your records.
