Tuna Trip

Featured Replies

I'm looking to book a Tuna/Shark trolling trip in October. Just checking to see if there is any interest here , make it a pro 2A trip :) As you know , the more on the boat , the more affordable. It runs 1800 , and I believe you can have 6 or 8 on the boat. Awaiting confirmation on max attendance.

It is a long trip , if you have never done a fishing trip this would not be one to cut your teeth on . If you "don't know" if you get seasick , again , this would not be one to find out on. It is a 30 to 40 mile troll .

Anyone?

How long is long?

That's what she said.

Sometimes about 10 ....hours...long ;)

Still waiting to hear from Captain Dave on capacity. Then we'll get a list going.

I'd be interested, never did a Tuna trip

I am interested as well as my wife. let me know when you get an exact date and price

Is this a Men only Trip or will Petes boss be coming?

Yes , I am such an awesome wife that I come on forums and make fun trips for my husband. NOOOOOOOOT lol . Pete and I will be going , Fishnut , would be great to have another woman on the trip.

 

So it is starting 1350.00 for up to 6 passengers. Which is pretty reasonable. I imagine the longer the tip the more $$. I'm cool with a half day trip though . So should we start talking dates?  We have room for 4 I guess since Pete and I make 2.

If it is half day then you are talking inshore tuna I guess

So women will have to see me vomit for 10 hours... I might pass LOL

Most any weekend in October is good for me and the wife. the half day trip sounds good but if we can get enough people together to make a longer trip cheaper that would be great too. Is this on the Purple jet?

 Yeah , you don't want to be "that" guy that makes the whole boat come back in lol

 

The Captain is pretty cryptic in his email. I am full sure the lower price is inshore mudhole tuna/troll for some shark. I believe the 1800 price is the 10 hour troll which I would rather do. Trolling is easier on the stomach . Seas have been rough this year , anchoring over a wreck in these recent seas can make the best of them chum.

Yes , the Purple Jet.

I just emailed asking for him to be more specific .

Yup trolling is the way to go in my opinion for tuna and shark. you present the bait to allot more fish and hopefully it will prevent some blue shark bites. once the blue dogs come into your chum slick you might as well pull anchor and move because they will eat all your baits and waste your time.

I am going on a fishing trip next week and am already thinking about this one. What's wrong with me? I guess that's why I chose my screen name.

From the Captain:

That is the inshore tuna trip. $1350 approx 10 hours 6 pass max.   If over 6 we are looking at a different boat.  An inspected vessel, extra $100 per person over 6 up to a max of 14

  • Author

Yeah , when my kids can go that long without me :) But in general I agree. Chicken Canyon use to be my go to.

So..who is in? Say...October 18th or the next weekend. I'll book it if I get 4 more souls.

I'm working those weekends. I'll see what the chances of getting off is

right...if there is one or the other that is better ( weekends) I'd give it preference since we are flexible

I work retail so I work 50% Sundays and 75% Sat. My weekend is the 4-5 and I have sun the 12 off for the month

I'm in GFH Camp 50 11th and 12th , otherwise I would totally do it that day.

I'll see if I can get off. I've been taking a ton of days lately so I'm not sure

Fishnut and wife? I'm sure I could get two of my friends to go. 10 hours , trolling. Pukers get to chum , no going back lol

We went yesterday 35-40 miles..sucked..Need to go out further.

Caught 1 dolphin and bonita..

They are catching small bonitas and dolphin in that mile range.. 

This was leaving out of Tuckerton.

 

Pezmachine catches!  But you pay

I got seasick reading this thread, I guess I'm out.

I have a few friends that do tuna trips, they leave before sunrise and get back after sunset. It sounds like fun, I'm just not nautical.
