I am going to travel into the South Pacific on my sailboat and would like to know, as a beginning hunter, any information that would be helpful in hunting up a meal along the way. Such as how would I spot a likely place in the ocean and what to expect when I get into a school of fish.

Can I come along? I'll show you how rather than tell you.rofl
Seriously now, if you want to stop in the middle of the ocean and hunt in water that may be 1000m plus deep then I got respect for you. I don't know much about hunting let alone in that environment, but all the best for your trip. If you make it to New Zealand I'll show you some nice spots to dive.

when u see sea gulls feeding all together in one area, then it means small fish r there.which means also that bigger fish are also around feeding on it too.
watch out for makoes and good luck...

Looking for fish in a vast expanse of water is indeed very difficult. Look for ANY for of life. Birds, seals, dolphins, etc will all be indicative of fish activity. Current lines, pinnacles, kelp beds, flotsam or any other structure you can find will most likely hold fish.
The easiest way in your case, would be to find a likely looking area and drift through it with a flasher.

i'm sure u will shoot lots of wahoos if you get a rectangular piece of mirror, attach it to a line and let it sink till the bottom. the reflection of the mirror will attract the fish. out of curiousity, fish will approach including sharks. be careful though.
