Yesterday I saw credible reports and pics from a few charters running Sea Hunter CC’s.  Both had insane “best ever” YFT fishing all on the jig. Drop and reel both stuffed the boxes.

@nmc02 I have twin 200HP Suzuki's on my 27' Cape Horn, pushes it extremely well!    

@JHbowhunter My buddy killed it on his seahunter yesterday w/ tuna.

Steve doing very well at a very young age. Unlike some of the other local pros that think they are “the best “ Steve is very client friendly and personable.

I understand that . But those boats in another 4 years will be over half a million .

Boat market is insane right now .

boats that were 150 now are 375.

‘and yellowfins and invincible , used boats are selling for more than they cost new a few years ago .

.

Absolutely spot on. Sold my Regulator in 2020 before market took off. Was going to try and find an Onslow Bay. Could’ve ordered one for 200+. Now to order one is about 225 min with 1 1 1/2 year wait. Used one they are getting very close to that if not more and that’s just so you won’t have to wait. 
Crazy right now.

Most of my jigs are 8 oz or more for Cape Cod. Bought some 4 & 5 oz shimmer jigs.

The Reel Seat is a good place. So many tuna jigs. Great place for rod or reel repair too.
