- Hey guys! Here's what it's like to chase bluefin tuna off Cape Cod at max speed!
***Full report here myfishingcapeco...
In this video I am fishing with the team from the Goose Hummock Shops in Orleans and Dennis. We are on Phil Howarth's 39 foot Contender fishing for "football" size bluefin tuna off Cape Cod. The day started flat calm with beautiful conditions. About an hour in we were hailed on the VHF radio and needed to assist a boat in distress! We towed the boat, passed them off to the Coast Guard, and then managed to catch 2 hard fighting bluefin tunas before a gale started blowing over Cape Cod. The ride home was rough, plowing through 6 foot seas into a 30knot wind. BIG KUDOS to my man Tyler Adams from the Goose Hummock for contributing much of the footage used in this video!

I can't wait for spring!!! Great video!

Glad you enjoyed the vid. Thanks for tuning-in Mike!
love your videos
That's awesome Sam, I appreciate the positive feedback. Thanks for watching!
Good videos man keep up the good fishing..
Thanks for watching! Much more to come in 2019 god willing!
Insane video man
Thanks for watching! Lots of fun
Was that a vessel assist that came for that boat? Looked like Coast Guard. I’m surprised they came once you had him under tow.
That was the Coast Guard, and yes we were expecting to bring them all the way into port ourselves. It was a nice surprise having the Coast Guard take over so we could get back to fishing, lol
I feel like thats me everytime i get a bite 😂

What was the rod AND line PE on the Stella please? The anglers just seems comfortable during the fight... Just wondering if it was the gear.
The gear is high quality and it certainly helps, but the tuna was also "small" by bluefin standards. Bigger bluefins are very taxing on the body when using spinning gear. I believe we were using either 80lb Cortland or Jerry Brown Hollowcore braid. The rod is from Hanta but I don't recall the model number. I do have links to my recommended tuna gear if you want to check it out here myfishingcapecod.com/gear/#tuna Tight lines! 🎣
@@MyFishingCapeCod thanks dude, appreciate the information! Cheers
Was this trip a charter? It looked like there was heavier tackle on board, but you elected to fish with the spinning rods.
Hey Paul, it was not a charter, just a bunch of friends heading out. We were planning on using the big rods/reels for giant tuna, but we switched over to the small gear once we began seeing "football" size tunas jumping around
CoooooL!!! Thank you !!!
I wonder how much drag do you put on these tuna in order to get them? 30 lbs? 40 lbs?
For the small ones in this video, I would guess I had about 10 lbs or drag pressure. Rarely have I ever bumped it up to 30 or 40 pounds, although we had to bump it up to 40 lbs on the tuna in this video (which was brutal on my back!) 👉🏻ruclips.net/video/SsoZt52cQd4/видео.html
Good Karma for the tow!
That is exactly what we were thinking. Thanks for watching Craig!
Hey! I have a question which rods and reel you used in this video. (Coventional,Spinning) Nice video
We used spinning rods and reels to catch the tuna in this video. The reel is a Stella 10K spinning reel (www.themightyfish.com/products/shimano-stella-spinning-reel?variant=42027495365). The rod is a "Mighty Fish" brand that is specifically made for small tuna. I'm not sure which model it is, but if you call the guys from the Goose Hummock they can tell you www.goose.com/contact
Thanks and which conventional reels and rods are you using in this video? Have a nice day
Hi which Shimano Stella you used.
We used the 18000 🐟
Which ramp is that? Thinking about a trip to Cape Cod. Where could I rinse the trailer at?
Please check out our private forum on myfishingcapecod.com for help and advice for planning trips to Cape Cod 🐟
Very nice.
Thanks Ed! A day to remember for sure, especially the ride home! 😳
So is this October 2018 or August 17 2019 because I see a lot of the same footage
This video with the guys from the Goose Hummock was filmed in October of 2018. The video with captain Cullen of Cape Star Charters (ruclips.net/video/6EfWccqQtJw/видео.html) is the one that was filmed on August 17, 2019
Nice video
Thanks buddy ✌🏻
Nice job! What boat ramp is that?
Hi there! 👋Thanks for watching! I would be happy to provide more tips about locations and boat ramps over on my website myfishingcapecod.com. Join as a member and send me an email at ryan@myfishingcapecod.com (or make a post in our private forum) and I'd be happy to help with more details. 🎣
Pamet
what rods were you guys using?
Hey Colleen, with regards to the rods, they are made custom from the Goose Hummock Shops in Orleans, MA. I can't recall the exact model number, but if you give them a call on the phone and tell them you are interested in the rods featured in this video then I'm sure they will help you out. Their shop number is (508) 255-0455 ✌🏻
My Fishing Cape Cod thanks! I’ve been looking into doing some tuna fishing around p town and Chatham and we’re looking for rods that won’t brake the bank and will match good with a gosa 20000. I’m thinking the terez xh
