Hooking Up Anglers Since 2011.
Plenty more tuna reports are coming from the Portland area this week. Fish have ranged in size from 13kg through to around 130kg. Albacore tuna have been caught out wider around the Horseshoe area right out into 2000m of water. Bluefin have been caught in as shallow as 30m, right through to around the same depths as the albies. James from Unreel Fishing Charters has had a good run on the SBT again this week, with plenty of happy customers taking home some fresh tuna. Both hardbodies and skirted lures are taking tuna, with a mixture of colours working well. Good colour choices at the moment seem to brighter colours, with any UV worth running, along with bright chartreuse, pink and blue.
Customers James and Milena fished over the weekend on the tuna, trying their luck to see if they came across a 'barrel'. While no monsters were found, they did get into some solid school fish to around 25kg. Xraps and skirts worked well, with more fish taking the skirts for them.
