    Trolling with twins

    I agree withGradyfish22. Thats exactly what we do when we are on twin outboard boats. A few years ago I tuna fished my single engine Gulfstream right next to a Marlin in Poormans canyon. We were on the fish and he was killing them, while were were just picking them off. He was even using our...
