As long as the boat has a fighting chair, you should have no problem. If not, as long as you have a good gimbel belt and shoulder harness that is all you need. If it's a big Tuna, you might get tired arms, but the mates are there to help you land the fish. It's something you'll never forget that's for sure. Just to hear a tuna strip off line. you'd never seen or heard anything like it. A Tuna trip is not cheap, even if you have your own, or know somebody that has a boat.
