Thanks for the compliment bobby,
I saw no complaining in the exactly 42 minutes it took for you and everyone else to consume 125 dove breasts I only ate two !  What Jim's saying is bait them with milo and throw a castnet over 'em.

Ditkarulz, I'll be on the Nov trip. I have not been on a tuna trip in several years but fished and chartermastered on a couple of the GEM trips on 360tuna, fished some private trips off the TX coast, and a couple with 2cool on the Big E when it was around. I fish offshore regularly with a buddy who has a boat in Surfside. I sold all my high end tackle during a divorce and am trying to gather enough yft quality stuff to start going again from time to time. I'm located in St. Paul near Collin Park. Looking forward to meeting everybody and seeing a few familiar faces again.

I'm on the October and November trips, I haven't been offshore in three years but this is the year for me to hit it hard again. My favorite time to fish YFT is Halloween!! Darn good trips at that time.
I used to fish with the Texas Allcoast Gang on the TAG trips, and then later the offshoot, the Corpus Christi Tuna Heads. Fished the Dolphin, Pelican, Gulf Eagle, Kingfisher, Scat Cat, the Big E when it was around and fished the GEM trip on the Akela, back in the day.
Miss the whitewater of a YFT crashing a topwater lure out in the dark.
Looking forward to fishing with everyone.

What should I expect for the live/dead bait situation. Will there be flats of sardine and squid to start with before the first few "chunk" fish hit the deck? I've been on several DSH 24hr trips and they normally have a 55 gal drum for livies, will this trip most likely have something set up also? I know a few guys have been talking about catching bait the night before.
If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles.

Blackfin will hit iron jigs really well. Start with jigging and add 5-10 black fins to the bait box quickly.

Tom - DeepBlueGulf Tom ..... so glad you are going. Just getting to fish elbow to elbow with the likes of Charlie Williams is worth the trip. On the downside .... from the BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW department .... When you haven't been out and caught a YFT in three years or more there is a reorientation that requires you to eat the heart of your nights first Yellowfin. You might pass this along to Bert as well.  It's going to be a great time. I'd rather fish with these guys than the finest folks in the land.

Actually, I anticipated this and have decided to pre-qualify for my recertification by catching a hardhead at my dock, and then cutting out the heart and eating it here. Perfectly legitimate I am told, plus that will free up more time for fishing on the trip.
If I can get pictures of me eating the hardhead heart, I'll post them.

I pleaded your case with the "committee" and they have come up with a way to exclude you guys from heart eating and exempt you from it. Just a simple stipulation. Bring 30 Ribeyes and you're good to go!
