Tuna Fishing - Sinking Stickbaits for Bluefin

Bluefin tuna fishing, at the highest level, demands precision and adaptability. The behavior of bluefin tuna, coupled with environmental factors, demands a strategic approach. These fish are known for their speed and strength, making them challenging targets. Their discerning nature means they're not easily fooled by subpar techniques or equipment.

The use of sinking stickbaits is a tactical response to the presence of birds like shearwaters during fishing. These birds, attracted by the commotion of baitfish being attacked, can interfere with fishing by going after lures near the surface. By using lures that sink, you effectively place your bait below the zone of bird activity, increasing the chances of reaching the tuna without disturbance.
