Jersey Devil bluefin tuna 7/14 a trip to remember
« on: July 16, 2012, 03:23:18 PM »
Ran a crew trip on Saturday with my son Jack (5 years old) and Stevie, Paul, Chris and John. So we got an early start and had our first fish on with in a half hour near the Resor and had a few bites mid morning but came unbuttoned. We were all trying real hard to get Jack his first tuna to no avail until we got the call from Captain Freddy Gamboa so off we went late in the day. We stopped had some signs and jigged for a while until we got called in by Captain Chris on Chicken of the Sea who was gracious enough to let us in on his slick and handed us off some sardines and with in minutes we had Jack on his first tuna!!!!!!!!!!!!!


It was one of my proudest moments ever fishing and I have been fishing offshore for over 25 years!!!! In fact it was one of my proudest moments ever!!!!

THANKS TO ALL INVOLVED ESPECIALLY CAPTAINS CHRIS AND FREDDY this is what its all about my friends!!!!

Thanks guys I passed on your comments to Jack!

He is hooked and has been even prior to this trip which is awesome!!!!!

We were walking off the dock and as I turned off the dock lights Jack looks up at me and says " dad can we go fluke fishing in the morning just the two of us?" I looked at him and said I think we have had enough for a day or so let's just go shower and go to bed! Mind you I had him up at 0300 and this was at 2130 I was SHOT!!!!!

Priceless!!!!!

Thanks again for the comments......

Tight lines!
