I think the coolest part is every fisherman pulling out their "inner chef"
Mark is better than most when it comes to presentation.
pretty sure my ribs are better than his............

Tuna don't have ribs...just sayin

LOL
I was thinking lite liner was little skinny and boney to have good ribs...

Thanks for the tamales at the dock... man they were good.

My big fat beer gut thanks you for that.
something to aspire to.............

I can't wait to get back out there and do this again. I've got more tuna then i really know what to do with, we've grilled a bunch of it here on the rig and the guys love it.. How much longer till the next trip?

Try some chicken fried with jalape�o cream gravy.

rumor is a state record was set on this weekends trip, they're home early with 16 limits..............

Glad you liked them. This lady makes good ones very consistently

Ask Charlie about us going on on the Big E. It was 12-15 footers and grew.. Capt. Frank has the auto pilot on and we passed withing 200 feet of a rig.. That was scary. Don't know if he was alseep or what, but we were running for the wheel house.

Then we went through a couple of Rouge waves later. We were in 15 footers and there was one wave that came over the top and went over the wheel house. The wheel house was 27 feet above the water line.

Charlie and I were about the only ones left up for that one! Everyone else was asleep! And we were trying to jig for fish as the same time during the drifts.. It was a crazy trip!

My mouth is watering. Been too long since I've has some fresh yellow fin!

Shall we assume you will be joining us in 2014, Mike?
between you & Ronnie, I don't know who gets the "longest-gone" award.

Here are some of the raw videos I shot. They are too big to email. I messed the orientation up on one but corrected it about 10 seconds into the video.

so when can we start signing up for the next trip... ^_^

Just remember we have to do this booking fee collecting thing as a group on our own this year.. TOO... Willie says he is out.
