Tip&Trick Description 1:
Albright Knot
The albright knot is most commonly used for joining lines of different diameter, for creating shook leaders and when Bimini Twist is tied in the end of lighter casting line. It is also used to connect monofilament to wire.
1.Create a loop in the tag end of the heavier line, then feed the tag end of the lighter line through it.
2. Bring the tag end up and over the loop to make your first turn.
3. Make a series of turns around all three stands, keeping it as tight as possible.
4. make a minimum of 10 turns, bringing the tag end out of the end of the heavier line's loop.
5. To tighten the knot, pull the standing part of the heavier line. At the same time, slide the turns toward the loop end.
6. When turns are in a neat position, pull both standing parts to make the knot tight. Trim ends.

Nov 14, 2003; 09:28AM - This week's tuna bite
|

Got out twice this week and maybe tomorrow. The tuna have been tricky lately. Had the Jerry and Dorris Purcell Tuesday. They had spent the week down at the campground and with a few inshore guides and left half a cooler for tuna...Daryll and I laughed as they showed us thier 48 qt chest before we left...the goal was a tuna each and maybe something else...got to the spot and within 10 minutes of making bait we had a double - looked like we were going hoke early..the first fish came to the boat easy for Jerry , maybe 5 minutes on a 100 pound fish..it never really made much of a move..Dorris however didn't have it as easy; holding her own with the larger of the two, about 20 minute later Darryl made a good gaff shot on what appeared to be a 120-130 pound yellowfin but the gaff tore out of the fish as it was 1/2 way over the gunnel, which in turn gave way to an eventual and unintentional release..anyway all the commotion attracted a bunch of attention and a previously vacant area turned into a 5 boat sardine can..needless to say the fish never came up and we didn't wait around for them in the log jam for more than an hour...spent the rest of the day looking for one more fish...despite the best effort we could only manage hooking a decent fish on a popper only to pull the hook 10 minutes into the fight...tough day but a fun day...after all the boats left we went back to the G spot and where teased for 2 solid hours by slow rolling yellowfin in the 80-120 pound class...they actually looked like tarpon but they wanted no part of anything we could put in around and on top of them..at one point I pitched a hardtail into 4 of them 10 feet off the bow..I watched them roll in whatever plankton they were feeding on paying no mind to the hardtail that was thrashing wildly between them..I think they might have taken a fly who knows...If I had a harpoon mounted on the bow, I could have taken 3 for sure...probably in one shot..it was the nicest sized school I have seen in a while...tell you where next month...also, they had no fear of the boat either..it was a total tease...50 yellowfin all around and no strikes....the day before went much better..plenty of blackfin..I think we kept 12 plump blacks and bagged two 60 pound yellowfin on Braid murauders..all the fish came of artificial baits as it was too rough to live bait. Actually came in early...We'll see about tomorrow..Paradise Outfitters - 985-845-8006 - http://www.paradise-outfitters.com
