The Tuna are on the Way

The big schools of yellowfin tuna that began arriving last Friday drew Art Taylor and his 16 Searcher three-day anglers to try fishing in a tongue of warm water below Ensenada.

"It was clean and 67.5 degrees," said Art, "and we had jig strikes over a 45-mile stretch on mixed grade tuna and skipjack. We also got some fish on kelps and bird schools on the first day when it was calm. The good fishing extended from about 95 to 130 miles south."

The trip was sponsored by Accurate Fishing Products, who sent Gary Gillingham along as chartermaster, with 12 sets of loaner rods and reels from the factory.

"They were BX2-400 and BX2-500 models," he said. "We also gave away a BX2-400."
