I'm fairly new to offshore fishing and can't seem to catch a tuna. I have a Aquasport Explorer 250 with T-150's and a hard top. There is a pair of 15' outriggers attached to the hard top. I have a fairly large selection of offshore tackle. I normally run a seawitch w/hoo off the long outrigger, squid chain with a cedar plug on short outrigger. Bird with a green machine long middle with a spreader bar short middle. I run about 7 mph when trolling. and have been going out of Oregan Inlet. I've had success with dolphin but no tuna. Any advice would be welcome. I recently went out of Hatteras on a charter to learn more but missed the Tuna bite, it was further north.
