We got tight with a nice fish yesterday afternoon. And then this happened...
It was pretty heart breaking losing an estimated 300 plus pound tuna less than 20 feet from the boat. In time I know I will get over it.

Ryan, Are those black things , on your line, the anti chafe sinker that is sold at fisherman’s outfitter ? How do you rig them, and how do they work?
It is an anti chafe sinker, which we refer to as a “tuna bomb”
We made these ourselves, but yet you can purchase them from various tackle shops.
When a fish hits, the tuna bomb slides down the line and sits in the tuna’s mouth, helping to prevent chaffing.
