I was talking to Matt from Galveston Party boats and he is interested in a harpoon to reach out and touch pinwheeling fish that are staying out of gaff range. Any recommendations from anyone who uses harpoons? Expected tuna would be between 150-200 lb YFT. He has long gaffs but the big fish manage to stay 15 - 20 feet from the boat...
Matt, if you are following this, i have been really happy with the shoals harpoon kit, and off the bow or stern of the scat cat (sister ship), an 8ft schedule 40 has worked out well. I have another 6ft shaft i swap to for the back of sportfisher jobs. Link to: https://www.tackledirect.com/shoals...ZP-ZgaK4rFjUK0zBvDWDfK7JU9h_AFlBoCRmgQAvD_BwE Capt fred
