Trolling for Tuna with Cedar Plugs off the Washington Coast - Extended Cut

NWF heads out to sea off the Washington Coast from Ilwaco, Washington to go fishing for albacore tuna with Captain Pat Schenk of Seabreeze Charters! With decades of experience fishing coastal waters from his charter boat, Pat offers a fun trip and loads of information about the charter fishing experience.
He digs deep into his bag of tricks on this trip, targeting tuna on the troll. Pat discusses different plugs and trolling gear for tuna. The classic "cedar plug" performs well and Captain Pat and the NWF crew have a fun day catching these hard fighting ocean-dwelling fish.

The dude backward reeling a conventional reel makes me chuckle!

Rob, I'm thinking about buying a 23 foot Hewescraft HT. Would it be safe to take it that far out to catch tuna?

Awesome video! The 1st Mate worked his butt off. Kudos to him!

Wondering how much line do you let behind the boat?

Good job

When was this filmed? Also how far off shore

[@mattsohlstrom1110]

Approx 50 miles offshore. I'm not sure as to the film date but I would think recent. The Tuna show up in late July and run into Sept.
