Today I tried my hand at smoking my first tuna bellies. I threw together a quick marinade, let the bellies soak for 2 hours, pulled the bellies, let them air dry for 3 hours while I prepped the smoker and once it reached/held 180 threw the bellies on for a nice 3 hour long smoke.

It turned out good with great flavor and a subtle smoke taste!

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

looks great ! Did it stay fairly moist with the hot smoke ? I have been cold smoking some of the TY and it has turned out great. Have not tried hot smoke on it. We cold smoke albacore also . ....... might be worth a try also on the BFT if you want to experiment some more.
