Ocean alive with raging Tuna schools

 Went out yesterday and encountered massive schools of Tuna busting up Baitschools every where north of Mindarie!

This went on all day, from morning till we came back @ 4.30pm!

Awsome to be amongst this!

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.

was out on Sunday taking some work people over from Germany for a cruise out to carnac.

 

From Freo to carnac there were MASSIVE schools of bait being smashed by something... of what im not sure didnt see Tuna jumping, but there was something bigger under them. Schools would have been half the size of a footy field!
