This was an awesome trip. Especially for my 1st canyon experience. I finally got to meet some of you guys and it was a pleasure fishing with you. Capt and crew were top notch. Always there to help with tangles, baiting, rigging, and landing. I'll definitely be back next year (with 130's). Below are a couple vids I just post on youtube.  One is of the blue shark and the other is of the 1st tuna.

Just a fantastic trip from start to finish...

If you had to write a script for an offshore trip this is what it would look like...

Glassy seas for the ride out covering the 100 miles in 5 hours...seas continue smooth though out the night, just a little light rain with multiple shots at long fin, yellow fin, sharks and some mahi in the mix.  Seas will then build to 8 to 10s with some 12 and 14s sliding under the boat at times, just to make a exciting trip back home...


As most have already mentioned,

The Gamble did everything right for our trip,

Seldom do you find such a beast of a boat that can cover ground that fast and get you there with both speed and comfort the way she did and have such a capable Capt and Crew, definetly on top of the offshore game. I would highly recommend them for anyone looking to go offshore on a party boat !!

Capt Bob found some nice warm water over some great structure and put us right on the fish providing action through out the entire night. The mates impressed me with their patience and how they delt with tangles, they got them out fast and were very reluctant to cut line and were always there when you needed them..


I was also impressed with how wide the isles were, making it so easy to pass another angler while working a fish, not to mention how big the cabin is. 23 guys plus all that gear and there seemed to be room for much more. A very quite boat while running as well.

Special thanks go out to:


Rick, this trip just doesn't happen without you and all your hard work... Super job buddy !!!!

Trish, thanks again for all your hard work with that impressive food spread !!!  You spoil us all  msfsh

Bob for getting that Ronzzzz order put together for us...not sure how many fish were caught with them but I would guess 5

Paule, thanks for official trip kick off at Farrells !!

And the Gambler for hosting our trip and working so hard to make it a successful one !!



Just put me on the list for 2015 Rick  t^

Great trip guys! Thanks to Rick for making it happen, Trish for the food. Capt. Bob and the crew of the Gambler for making our fishing experience top notch. And the NJSWF members that are so great and make the trip so much fun. I'm all in for next year.
A good day of fishing is better than a bad day of fishing. A bad day of fishing is better than a good day of work. That means work sucks!

Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.
