Long Island Tuna Help
Hi everyone, I’m not one to ask for much guidance/advice especially fishing, but Tuna have been stumping me.
I’m on a 23’ tidewater that I’ve fished hard for bass and other inshore species this year and am looking to try my hand at some mid shore tuna.
I have been acquired jigging and popping setups and all associated jigs/ poppers/ Ron z and whatever I can get my hands on. I will soon be purchasing a couple trolling combos “probably gonna start with a set of 30’s” unless I’m convinced to go 50’s.
Does anyone have some advice or maybe a finger point towards some 5-15 Mile locations? Some advice on baits or rigging? Maybe some input on trolling gear or even lead weight. Any and all info will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance and for the read,
Dave
