How many people get to go
Tuna Fishing long range trip
- Thread starter Ceez
- Start date
The trip can carry 24 but this year only 17 paid. Since my Godfather was hurt he didn't fish and it was only 16 really fishing.
I used to go a lot out of Seaforth on the Orion and Legend when I was a kid. I think they changed the name of the boat of the Legend, Sean was captain but I'm not sure anymore been so long. Where did you read the report at BloodyDecks?

So you guys caught 7 fish between 16 people?
Not being a wise guy, catching a big tuna is in my to do list..
I looked up the boat after I quoted you, looks like your trip is all that really on that site now
No, I had 10 between my Godfather and myself not including the wahoo. Big tuna fishing isn't like running into epic 3 acre boils of fish and just hooking up one after another, or at least not very often. Our trip was decent and not as tough as some others that were there before and after us but that's fishing.

WOW such high praise, I'm flattered. It took a lot of pimping these low level hoes to obtain the $5500.00 necessary to get on the boat but I'm not a quitter. BTW your mom should be home soon, and she needs a refill on her valtrex

Yeah but that was just an assumption based on your posts, wasn't personal.
You may indeed make more money than me. Lots of people do. Want a gold star? Back massage?
Sure as hell was personal and a very detailed assessment of who you thought I was. You're probably the guy that goes around saying "you people" too and is a closet racist. I mean just as an "ass"umption based on your posts, nothing personal

alright bud was just a shitty jokey post, I seem to have hit a nerve so I apologize and I'm also sorry I derailed your thread.
Honestly, you people are so sensitive some times.
Sorry not sorry, I have no feelings Roca no need to apologize. You added comedic relief to the thread, thank you!

Sean sold the Legend, he does fill in duty on some boats in the summer I heard. A friend of mine is a huge fan of the Intrepid and he gives me the reports.
I’m on bloodydecks a bit too, long range isn’t in my budget. It must cost $300.00 a day or more now. I Charter the Cortez, nothing fancy just kill fish with Rambo is all.
Killing fish is what it's all about!
TBH I wasn't all that impressed with the service on the Intrepid. We rode with a group of guys that were very cliquey and Bill has the "I'm too good for you" attitude and actually ignored my godfather a couple of times. THey also threw their trash in the ocean everyday which bummed me out. I don't think I'll be going back

That is weird to hear, trash overboard. We only have 16 on our trip and at least half are regular repeat riders, no clique forming on ours. Besides with these local Bluefin getting bigger every year it's a nice plan B option instead of LR trips.

So we went fishing for 15 days on a luxury sportfishing boat named the "Intrepid" out of San Diego. The night before we leave my godfather slips in some dog piss and tears up his knee. Long story short he didn't want to miss the trip but he never actually fished a bait and spent the first 3 days in his room on the boat never once coming out. We did well fishing wise as I have been fishing on the ocean all my life basically and know my way around any boat. Plan of action was I would hook and hand so he could reel in every other fish. Every fish down there has the chance at coming in at over 200lbs or what they call a cow.
So his kite rotation comes up and they hook a fish on a yummy flyer (its a live flying fish we caught the night before) and they hand him the bigboy rod and reel. He spends 20 minutes working on this fish and it comes up tail wrapped. Bam first cow on the boat at weighs in at 255.6lbs.
He's the 2nd one from the left.
All in all good trip and the highlight was my godfather getting that cow. He may never be able to do another one of these trips again and if that's the case I got to witness him getting a cow which is the whole reason we went.
We had 1000lbs of fish and I ended up donating 456lbs to charity and the great tax right off. We have given fish to everyone lol
Fucking love tuna!! and love that you caught these yourselfs! that is so cool man! what your fishing pole look like i bet it big huh?
Awesome! I would like to go on such a fishing trip some day too 
By the way, which rods and reels do you use? I would like to get a new one for me, and I am thinking about some of those from https://www.jandh.com/catalog/rods/manufacturer/daiwa What do you think about them? Maybe you can recommend me something about them too?
