A few answers on tuna fishing "Special Report Reveals The 7 Secrets
For Guaranteed Tuna Fishing Success"
 I want to know what speed I should be trolling when tuna fishing...
It depends on which species of tuna you are targetting actually, and sometimes the type of lure too. For example, if you are fishing for southern bluefin tuna then try trolling between 4-8 knots but increase your speed to 8-10 knots for northern bluefin tuna and then a little faster at 8-12 knots for pacific bluefin tuna.
Yellowfin tuna will most often hit a lure when trolling at 6-9 knots of speed, which also applies to albacore (longfin) tuna. Bigeye tuna can be a bit trickier, so try trolling at low speeds of 4 knots and then all the way up to 12 knots.
Blackfin tuna and longtail tuna don't grow to be quite as big as the other types of tuna, so just pick a speed of arond 6-9 knots when targetting them.
Please remember, these speeds are just a guide and you should always test from the low range first and then increase after a while to see if you see more results. Generally speaking, tuna love to hit a fast bait so you will likely have more success when trolling your lures above 6 knots.
You will discover the exact trolling speeds and techniques required for each type of tuna in my book.
My friends mentioned that using a cedar plug is the best for tuna trolling...
I know one thing is true when it comes to tuna fishing lures, and that is nothing works everytime. You eventually learn to read a situation and know which lure will catch the tuna on that day in that condition.
There are times when I've trolled a purple skirted lure with a concave head with very few strikes, then I change to a green/yellow jet head lure and had a strike in the first 20 minutes. But then I'll try that same lure another time in the same area and catch nothing.
It's kind of like horses for courses, you have to adapt to the conditions at the time but here are some general tips to get you started.
1. When trolling for tuna, use a teaser in the middle of your spread then a jet head lure behind the wash and a concave lure as your close lure in the wash just off the stern of the boat. This way you will attract maximum attention in the water and hopefully point the tuna towards the lure making heavy vibrations in the wash (concave pushes out compressions in the water). Tuna will often cruise straight past a lure out the back and choose to strike anything that is in the wash.
2. Cedar plugs have been used with great results, especially by old salty fisherman so don't count these lures out because of their appearance. Try to troll 2 different sizes at least, as you're never sure what size of tuna is lurking and if the lure is too big then the fish can't swallow it. As always, keep your lure in the wash for the best results.
3. Chrome slugs are the best option when you pull up along side of a feeding school of tuna. Their size, shape and weight are ideal for casting long distance which is what you need when trying to reach the action from your boat as you pull up. Tuna will feed into the wind, so steer your boat to be upwind when you cast your slug. Be sure to cast the lure downwind and begin winding just before the slug hits the water so there is less chance of your line being cut in the feeding frenzy. Also, remember that the bigger tuna will patrol the outer perimter of the bait ball so cast your slug to the outer circle and not into the middle so you have better chances of hooking a whopper.
4. Vertical jigging when fishing for tuna is an almost guaranteed method for catching tuna that dwell deep under the surface. The correct methods for jigging are covered in my book along with examples of jig lures that are known to catch tuna. Once you have found the tuna on your fish finder, position your boat slightly up drift of the school then send your jig down to the bottom. Don't allow it to sit on the bottom or it will likely snag on something down below! There are different methods of vertical jigging when tuna fishing, you can either hit the bottom then bring it up a few winds so the hooks are clear of snags. Then with a sharp action, jig the lure up and down until you feel a strike. Another method of jigging for tuna is to let the lure down almost to the bottom then retrieve to the surface as fast as you can. Often the jig will have a strike on the way down and won't actually make it to the bottom.
The only other tip I can give you is to try out as many lures and methods as you can until you find what works in your area. Sometimes you can see the tuna feeding, so you can cast lures into the action. Sometimes the tuna are down deep so you need to entice them to the surface or intrude their level of water with a jig.
You can read a great deal more on skirted jetheads, chrome slugs, flyers, feathers, barrel heads, minnows, deep diving hard boy lures, vertical jigs and much more in the lure section of my tuna fishing book.
What advice can you offer on bait selection for catching tuna?
Well bait is big subject when it comes to tuna fishing, a huge subject actually. I've seen many different things work around the world, so firstly I would say that tuna bait depends on what you have available. If you can only access frozen or dead baits, then take squid and pilchards/sardines with you. Tuna love squid in their natural habitat so you can't go wrong with that bait. Just be sure to bait the squid whole (not cut into strips or pieces) so that it looks natural in the water.
If you know where to find live bait, then stop there on your way out to sea to catch as many slimy mackeral as you can. These are considered delicacies to a tuna and will greatly increase your catch rate.
Catching small tuna and keeping them alive in a tank on the boat is also a great bait to use as larger tuna can't resist smashing a younger bonito or skipjack.
Yellowtails and nannygai are also used often for tuna fishing so give them a try if you are able to collect some as live bait.
As I mentioned, talking about tuna fishing baits is a huge subject which would take me all day to write about here. But it is covered extensively in the bait section of tuna fishing book and I explain each bait to use for every type of tuna.
I lost a tuna close to the boat, what is a good knot to use next time?
The correct knot to use when tuna fishing depends on the type of lure you are using along with the configuration of your tackle. There is an actual 'tuna knot' and is basically an improved version of the fishermans knot. The knot is strong and nearly retains 100% of the line's breaking strain due to the double strands of line used to create the knot. This is the best all round knot to use for tuna fishing.
You will find examples and illustrations on the best knots for tuna fishing in my book, they make it easy for you with step by step instructions.
How do you pick the right tackle for tuna fishing, which hooks work best?
There won't be much debate amongst fisherman when it comes to tuna fishing tackle, as almost everyone uses tuna circle hooks. Personally, I spend a little more to get the high carbon version of the tuna circle hook because of the added strength it has. Tuna are like raging bulls when they fight and can easily straighten a normal hook that would be suited to other fish. The last thing that you want to do after spending all this time and effort on catching tuna is to lose the fish because of a cheap hook. You are spending good money on your hobby so don't cut corners on the one thing that is holding that tuna on your line.
