I was thinking on making my first ever Albacore tuna fishing trip out of Santa cruz. I have never been tuna fishing. I'm hoping somebody can help me out with a few tips and answer a few questions. like, How far out are the tuna bitting this season and in what direction? also, What is the most effective fishing method for tuna in this area? would trolling be my best bet? also, What weight line should I be using? what size of hook? if anybody can help me I would greatly appreciate it.
