Nice first BFT for your boat! For those bigger BFT you need to use a 2 speed reel; pumping and pulling makes the hole from the hook bigger and it’s why they can shake the hook off. Using mono as a top shot also helps with pulling hooks, it acts like a rubber band and won’t let them shake the hook off as easy.
What size boat did you take to Catalina ? I noticed it was a different boat than yours, unless you have two, and bummer on the loss, I hate when that happens.
I was just at cat yesterday on a priv boat and we weren’t able to hook anything. Do you have any tips for private boaters on targeting bluefin and yellowtail?
Hey man, I am going for tuna next week on my boat. Let me know if you want to join out of Newport.
Awesome but sadly I'm back in Florida
I didn't hear about yellowfin being this far north. Got a lot of bluefin though

For yellowtail Crusie around areas that hold life in 50 60 feet once your mark some good sized fish anchor up and start chumming
Blue fin right now just look around the drop offs on the island
Especially the slide look for birds breezes and foamers and water your finder
Tuna time
What is the rod/reel set up you’re using?
The reel is a saltist
You would’ve landed him sooner if you stopped moving that damn rod in your crotch
