I've been meaning to ask, why was Beto fishing a wire leader? Had he seen the 'hoo? I was fishing for tuna so had straight mono.

Thanks Bazz. Would you likely have as much success on a tuna with the wire leader? I confess I have never fished surface iron; maybe the leader doesn't hang in the water?
Main reason I ask is I got some Rangers for my next tuna trip in Sept and if Barracuda are a problem (aren't they always?) I would like to rig with wire IF it's not likely to affect YFT bite.

I think the Coffee colored Malin single wire would be OK away from the boat.. it might turn off the Tuna in the brite lights near the boat but that is where the Cudas hang out anyway. If you plan to use them trolling I don't think the wire would matter either.. I seen YFT up to 90# taken on Braid Runners and Youzuri divers with a wire leader on the troll anyhow.
When the BFT are on a wide open bite I don't think it would matter one bit!

Got a brief report from Allen; he said they caught some nice tuna during the day chunking. I think we are wasting our time trolling on these trips, and need to be doing the same ol' same ol', night or day, if out for tuna.

Even when the trolling is good, you still have 20 guys and 4 trolling positions. One trip out of DD I saw Californian catch a AJ in excess of 100 lbs off Boomvang during the day and a large cuda for chunking saving some blackfin. I agree with mojo and jig the same old same old produces even in daytime.

Still looking for something good for this spot.
