Yellowfin Tuna CRUSH JOB!!!! And...."THE BEST HOOKSET EVER!!!!!"

  • Early July Yellowfin Tuna crush Job as the title states. The tuna had been holding in a small area for about a week or so. Zac and I had them chunking a few days prior, and I knew that if the bait stayed put the fish would as well.
    We got right on the hook (anchored) and immediately had fish on. In just a few hours we had our 3 man Yellowfin tuna limit.
    All caught on live bait. All caught on the light gear. In the next video I will go over our chunking rigs as well as the rod/reel setups.
    One more important note. For 2-3 weeks I was, as far as I know, the only one using this exact method in this little area.
    There is no need to follow the herd all the time. If you have confidence in a pattern then give it a go and let er rip!!!!
    Thanks as always
    Chris

    Team Reaper does it again! Great video.... the drone footage is awesome.
    Once again you were able to bring the Bite to my 92 year old father " Bud" Actually he will be 93 tomorrow August 15th. He gets a kick out of all the enthusiasm your team brings to fishing. Tight Lines.

    I just moved to the beach here in fl. And I've got fast enough internet to watch your videos in HD and gotta say its great!! I watch all of them on the big screen. I love the format of your videos. It's second best to being on the boat with you! Always look forward to your uploads. You've got the perfect length videos as well. I'd watch them even if they were an hour long. Keep it up!!

    When you got that 1 tuna on the bow and was bleeding I was saying BEFORE you said it. Write Reaper in blood. That was awesome.
    Chris I would love to see a video of the boats you had growing up till this one appeared. How you learned all the ins and out of each boat and all the maintenance and upkeep that comes with it.
