@Giles So a lot of action in the tip with a really strong (stout) backbone. I thought with such a large and powerful fish that you would want a longer rod for the battle and that a shorter rod would tire “you” out faster than the “fish”.

Must be a delicate balance of letting the fish run and pulling him back in…

@Giles not your hair wax either, I guess

[Giles]

Fishing so far has been very poor., We are hoping that it is because the tidal coefficient is very low, and we need large currents for the Tuna to hunt and coral the flying fish, but that builds through the week, so fingers crossed....

[Giles]

Today, was very windy with 16 feet waves at times. Decent currents and the fish were on......

Caught a couple,
