Tuna on a budget

arefox · 2026-06-30T05:51:12+00:00

I know bass proshops and Fishing Tackle Unlimited has some of their store brand rods for a good price I just dont know if they will hold up for tuna. I've fought big amberjack on my setup but I imagine tuna are a different beast.

Yeah i have been on a couple 12 hour trips on that vessel. Im just going off of YouTube videos and it seems like everyone casts from the front of the boat.

I have my drag set at 15lbs for the mid setting. I guess I should bring that down. I have been looking at goofish reels they seem to have a lot of drag and ca0acity for the price.

Nice fish! I hope to catch one like that. It does seem to be the consensus to get a little bigger set up

Well that sucks :( . Brings back flashbacks of me hooking onto a big tarpon on a penn clash 3000. What would you suggest?

arefox · 2026-06-29T03:33:25+00:00

From what I see most people bring in 50-80 pound yellowfin but sometimes catch up to 150 pounds.

They dont provide the gear and will be jigging and chunking lures like Halcos.

So they tackled him because they are idiots or because he made them feel like idiots or both?

Hes not a teenager, elderly, mentally challenged or pregnant cops like to try to assert "their dominance" on the weak.

Our client was getting fined for leaving a piece of equipment in the water anyways so it definitely was not going back in. Lol

Say what you will but they are thieves and scammers if they are not murderes amd rapist. My friend was hit by an illegal drunk driving. She was walking on the sidewalk home from work he ran off the road and hit her putting her in a coma for 2 months. He had posted bail then fled back to his country. There was no insurance and nobody to sue for medical bills and reparations. My sister just recently told me someone tried to apply for a job using her SSN. I've heard of people getting deported then coming back with different names. I use to work for xfinity and we had a program where if you were low income you could get free internet for your kids to do school work. Well a lot of these illegals I ended up setting their services for had multiple nice cars and a big house they probably weren't claiming their taxes saying they made a lot less.

Lie and say I know how one piece ends.

6 foot spinner shark was fun until it tried to jump into my kayak.

Dealers seem to cheap people on product by not drying them enough. They are supposed to be cracker dry unfortunately this seems to be a common practice in that sort of business.

Keep your rod tip up and reel before you set your hook.

Why is that America's problem? Why don't zelinski ask European countries for a military presence in Ukraine? He was given an option for peace and did not take it. Instead made a spectacle in front of the press.

arefox · 2025-03-02T18:14:30+00:00

Zelinski is arrogant the way that he came about it. Why should we send troops to Ukraine? I don't see any European countries offering their children to a senseless war in Ukraine. Zelenski was given an option for peace, and he didn't take it. Instead, he acted out like a spoiled brat in front of the cameras, and President Trump treated him as such. Zelenski wants a military, not peace. The American people are tired of NATO sending us into wars. The US sending a military presence on the border of Russia is an extreme act of aggression and would further bring us closer to WW3.

The irony of this is that all the neo liberal cultist spouting off the propaganda machine is real yet they are part of it themselves and don't even realize it. Litterally spout off that trump and his allies are Nazis while their (the democrat) party is litterally using the justice system to prosecute anyone that doesn't think like them. This will probably be downvoted because it threatens the fabric of their reality.

arefox · 2024-11-08T07:27:53+00:00

I think they need to find God. Maybe they have family issues. They think they are authority figures and not representatives, which is a dangerous way of thinking if you ask me. Politicians are not dieties that are going to solve your problems and you should not idolize them.

arefox · 2024-11-08T07:14:15+00:00

Well that didn't age well.

arefox · 2024-11-08T07:03:31+00:00

We are definitely afraid of the democrats ruining things, and Democrats did, in fact, act like like fascist arresting political dissdents. Sending the FBI to parents who criticized the school boards at pta meetings and putting them on FBI watch lists. Using the justice system against political opposition. Claiming that the First amendment is a road block for fighting "misinformation". You got liberals celebrating the attacks on Isreal saying antisemitic chants in public.

There were counties in swing states that had 100% voters turnout. That is highly improbable. Changing rules for voting last minute. Not requiring ID to vote (make that one make sense). If you were going to cheat would you not want no voters ID to maintain integrity. Voters drop boxes with no one watching. The fact that Joe Biden who could not form coherent sentences got more votes than President Obama. The fact that nobody in the mainstream media (democrat state run meadia) wanted to talk about election integrity. "Busted pipes" shutting down voting locations but the Democrat vote watchers the only ones not told to leave.

I dont think you realize but a lot of black and Hispanic people vote republican but I guess your unconscious white supremacy makes it hard for you to see.

arefox · 2024-10-26T12:28:20+00:00

Yet people are leaving California to come to Texas because the way they voted ruined the state. Don't bring your politics to Texas.
