Aloha Chris. Good job. My only hope is you don’t get burnt of fishing. I was good at it, started guiding, did well, and stopped enjoying fishing. Took me awhile to get back into it. Now I fish for myself, good luck!

[@scottjames1904]

This is what I warned him about too. Somewhere along the way the love is lost. I’ve seen it through many captains, and it becomes just a job. Maybe do it long enough and the outcome is inevitable?

[@We_Dont_Miss]

That's exactly what happened to me on lake Texoma. I was just going to do it seasonally for a few years. It turned into 8 years full time year around guiding. I quit fishing for almost 3 years after I'd had enough. So it's just me, my dad and my wife that I take fishing anymore. Made damned good money. But a lot of times I was going from 3am to at least 7pm or later. During the winter I'd do 2 trips a day. The burnout is real. I even moved all the way up to Montana when I tapped out. 😂

[@ChrisPfish2]

why? i am happy i dont have it. I chose to not get it. Lots of benefits not having it. Dont see the problem lifting over the side. How easy is it to walk down the kicking fis to the end of the boat and then try and drag it through? Plus I have a live well there.

[@philrilp6711]

Hell yes captain, nicely done! Hey if you have a tailors tape measure or a sewing tape, or even a regular tape measure there's a pretty good formula for calculating the weight on large tuna, you probably already know it, but if not it works and with minimal effort and a cheap tape measure to get the weight on your clients fish without a block and tackle system. Length x Girth squared divided by 800 = Weight. Cheers, Gone fishing!

[@theoldsurffisher1943]

WOW!!! Chris 3 for 3 !!! Now that's a perfect score. Many Congratulations and high 5's!! Somehow switching off folks to wind in 1 fish seems somewhat un-sportsman's like? Almost like maybe some fishers need electric reels. Even at 80 years, when I catch a fish, "I" want to catch it. Maybe the fish feel the same way 2-3 fishers against me, "1". In think in Hawaii, they strap the fisher in a chair and let him alone do it. Of course with other fishers wanting a catch, a 3/4 hour fish fight is boring. Congratulations on being a top rate, excellent fish guide!!

[@ChrisPfish2]

The more people you have on the fish the quicker you can hopefully get it in the boat. Less chance for something to go wrong and meat supposed to be better. These are 150lb tuna. with several hundreds of yards of line out. Also the water is colder about 57 degrees. These norcal tuna fight harder then the socal ones so I have heard. This group wanted to share reeling in. Anyone is more then welcome aboard to try and do it themselves. I dont have a chair but a harness for you. Thanks for watching

[@phildufort5241]

Hey Chris. Thanks for sharing again. I'm new to BFT trolling and trying to learn by going out as much as I can and by watching videos like yours. I'm on a 23' Raider and haven't tried to put a third line out and not sure if that's even a realistic goal but would like to try. Couple questions if you don't mind. What are your setback distances and what advice can you give regarding turning? Or do you just run a straight line for a few miles then pull up and turn around depending on where the boils are?? Thanks again Phil

[@ChrisPfish2]

Hello, the setbacks are between 500-1500ft. I have auto pilot. it has me going straight. I hit a button and it moves me either direction 10 degrees at a time. When I want to turn I hit that every 30 seconds or so. It would be a lot more difficult without it.

That's awesome Chris! Do you feel like your boat is a little small for a six pack? It looks pretty tight, but maybe it's not as bad as it looks? Not trying to throw shade, I know it's a brand new custom killer boat - just curious :)

[@0041ASD]

He is 4 packing, but we all call small charters 6 packs

[@ChrisPfish2]

just like your mother always told you, bigger is better. I think the boat fits 6 people comfortably. The boat is 27ft in total length. Its rated for 8 passengers, i take 6. The deck is 9ft by 8ft. Whats the point of the question, to find out if its as bad as it looks? Yeah it was an awful time.

[@cjimmer4877]

I don't know much about tuna fishing but why is the deck hand doing most of the fish fighting

[@ChrisPfish2]

The deckhand will hold the rod as much or as little as you would like. they wanted breaks and it was there first time. Maybe they felt more comfortable at times having someone with more experience as they learn. There was also combined 1.5hr of fight time edited out. They did a lot of reeling too. They held the rod at the end. Also the fish pull very hard. Its hard work reeling them in.
