    Crazy solo BFT hunting in a boat without tuna door. That’s the epitome of, we’ll figure it out when the time comes.
    What an adventure.

      @@110welding it is depends on weather, sea conditions and how well you know your boat and her capabilities. You also needs to find someone to buddy up just in case. It is even safer for big boat to buddy up. So not go far if you don't feel comfortable. I ran my previous boat 15ft Gregor Alaska alluminun boat 22 miles.

    Nice work, Thuy! Can you show us how you process and store your BFTs? Would love to get some out here in HMB, but don't know how I would process a huge tuna like that. When my husband went down to San Diego and caught some, we had a company process the BFTs for us.

    • @Fishing247
      @Fishing247  Рік тому +1

      Hello. Bleed after caught. Remove guts and stuff ice inside and and keep cold in the kill bag with ice and solar salt if you have it . When get home, just filet and cut in portions you desire and vacuum pack. It takes 3 people to complete the cutting process and vacuum pack in 3 hours.

    Thanks Kirk

    • @Fishing247
      @Fishing247  Рік тому

      I have a total of 1200 yards of 150 pound power pro braided line. I just estimate by looking at the rings on the Penn international 50 wide. I let out 1 and 1/2 rings of line (around 400 yards) and have caught 3 BFT so I just keep doing what works for me. Thanks for your comment. Good luck. You need to put times on to have a chance to catch them. Most of people do not know that I have put lots of times, researches, money and time on the water for BFT.

    I have the same boat. Have you ever had to repair the aluminum seams for leaks? I have one side of the boat that leaks from the main seam on the outside starboard side. Might have to find an aluminum welder or just use 2 part marine epoxy to fix.

    • @Fishing247

      @@thedeeez7574 I meant 5400 marine silicone. When you see jumper or foaming, most of the time they do not bite on your lures so I am not exited when BFT jumps or foaming. I got the fish last Saturday. Just at the right place the right time. It is fishing. Sometimes you need more luck than skills. However we are good with how to fight and gaff BFT. Good luck.
