Hey Minnow,

Thanks for the information. Going to take my first tuna trip on the Big E and had a few questions for you.

1) I noticed the list you posted has some trolling lures in there. Does the Big E actually take the time to troll for tuna? If so, how much of the trip would you say is dedicated to trolling vs. jigging vs. top water fishing in your opinion?

2) Is it true that all the coolers on these trips are usually stored on the top level of the boat?

3) How long does it usually take to get out to the fishing grounds?

4) Is the baitwell stocked by the boat or do they depend on the passengers to fill it?

Any more info you can give would be appreciated. Thanks.
