My first ever tuna expedition, went out on the Little Sister out of Hampton, NH with my brother and two friends. Fished just a couple miles off the coast of Rockport, Mass. Two of our gang took about 30 minutes to reel him in, but we all posed for pics. Perfect weather for it, and a fun day all around. Saw some whales off in the distance, too.
You must of had a great experience. Went to the beach in Rye, NH on Saturday. The ocean was the calmest I have ever seen, it it was so warm the kids even took a dip...

In Oklahoma there probably aren't many tuna..except in the cans on the grocery store shelves. So to edgy-cate myself I Googled Atlantic Tuna. I read up on the fish and then I just had to click on one or two of the obscure references.... I was appalled when I read this (if it is indeed true):
(bleck...)
I'm not gonna read it. I live off of canned tuna, It's great whatever it is. They say whatcha don't know won't kill you so I'm gonna see if it's true.

You should read up on the mercury content of canned tuna. Moderation of consumption is recommended. White albacore has 3x the mercury content of the bluefin we caught. This catch is going to be stretched out through the winter as far as meals go.
