Kellen Keene with Two Albacore

Watch the video to see the action. Albacore from Kellen Keene on Vimeo.

When the boat returns to port the albacore are unloaded in dump buckets that hold up to 1000 pounds. The frozen albacoe are plced in the buckets one at a time.	The bait tank is pictured here. These tanks circulate seawater 24 hours a day. The water circulates in the rounded tank allowing the bait to swim. The chumer stands on top of the tank and flips bait astern of the boat
"Fishermen on "bait" boats set a small purse siene to catch anchovies for chumming albacore. The bait is flipped off the stern corners by the chummer and the pole fishermen in the racks use a squid jig to catch the fish.	Mike McCorkle is adjusting cable length on his Sea cucumber trawl. You can see the last hauls results under the netreel.
