Default Oregon Tuna

After watching Tracker's video on his Oregon tuna adventures I'm excited about tuna. I looked up some information about Oregon tuna on the web and found out that it is about the best in the world for flavor, texture and quality...wow!!! I'm even more excited about Oregon tuna!

Here's a great article link that discusses how our coastal tuna is sought by folks worldwide:

Interesting article! It is true that once you have tried home canned tuna it will be diffacult to ever buy in the store again. Let me just say that I am truly sorry for nudging you toward the dark side. :grin:

Wait, just wait, until you see a rod buckle when one of these tasty devils grabs the lure and runs. HooooooHaaaaa! It's a train wreck!

I guarantee that the thought of how they taste becomes a distant second place - at least for a few minutes. :grin:

Tuna - a life-altering experience.

And if you really want to make points, you'll send the jars back. At $7 a case for the empties, it's pretty thoughtful of the recipient to get 'em back to the giver.

My wife is giving a case of tuna to all our relatives as a Christmas gift. I tell her "I don't like fishing for tuna, I do it in order to provide Christmas gifts"

Hey - next summer I figure I'm good to go, instead of going fishing... "I'm going Christmas shopping"...

Great article on NW canned tuna, but wait 'til they taste the fresh stuff. Well, maybe not as fresh as Tracker's tuna beating heart. Now that is fresh sushi!!! Doesn't get any better than that.....

I am giving cases away also to my family, only got about 17 cases left, my parents are killing me with their atkins diet. im not sure how big tuna was in their diet, but after i gave them the first case of homegrown tuna, it seams like its their main course.....if those cases of tuna could answer the phone and drive i dont think i would be invited over so often.
