Another good day of angling on 70-150lb yft in balmy flat calm weather. Classic tuna fishing with the best action coming in the morning and evenings while midday provides a slow scratch. We did have one shot at a cow but unfortunately the hook pulled. We will be sitting tight here with two more days to fish.

This might sound ridiculous but a very effective method this trip has been pinning multiple small sardines on a large hook with a 1/2 oz slider in the dark. Many years prior Captain Brian Sims dubbed this method "The Chandelier" when night fishing for White Sea Bass. Equally effective for night tuna, and perpetually humorous to say, it is well worth a try if you're on a trip and fishing with smaller bait.
