I have not kept 50 but well over half of that and just finished up the last of thst fish from last October. Its much better fresh, but still tasty frozen. I do appreciate the heads up, I will keep track of my number.
I was only able to purchase a couple of those jigs from Steven as it was all he had left. The bft mentioned above beat most the paint off those. I havent found any place that sells those or a compairable product for near that price in the meantime either.
My problem with respooling is finding a place open late in Port A or Corpus, in San Antonio for on the way or early before the trip on the island.

Are ther any first time tuna people on board?
If so bring a sharp knife and your favorite drink.

I contend anyone fishing a TFF tuna charter for the first time is required to partake in the knife and drink ritual, no mater how many tuna they've caught. That rule should be back dated as far back as needed.
Also keep count of the 5 gallon buckets while on board.
