I need a little advice from some of the guys that do this trip each year..... What offshore bank do you funnel the money from to keep the wife from seeing how much you spend on tackle?  paypal works great  you can load and unload money from there without the wife catching it

What offshore bank do you funnel the money from to keep the wife from seeing how much you spend on tackle? i have heard that the Cayman NB is a good one as you can go there and have fun while you are removing your money... being single, i just pull the money out of my boot that is stored in my Rod locker in the garage...

Ditkarulz,
The best idea I can come up with is this, you don't need any offshore bank.
You tell the wife your truck is acting up, sounds horrible and barely moves. Call Lite-Liner and ask him if he can "fix-it", make sure he calls the house when you aren't there to tell your wife he's coming by to pick it up or work on it. A few days later, tell her he fixed it up like new, but to get a 20% discount you had to pay him in cash. Make sure to leave a big oil stain under your truck in the driveway and leave some of Brian's cards on the bar and refrigerator!!
While you are waiting for Brian to fix your truck, print up some raffle tickets that benefit TFF, or the little league team down the street, and make sure you have the WINNING ticket and then tell your wife how lucky you are and how things kind of worked out because you just had to pay a small sack of cash to get your truck fixed!
Tell her you won a gift card to Bass Pro Shops fishing department (pick up an unloaded card and hide your cash) then hang on to the card till everyone forgets about it, then go shopping when the time is right.
Make sure to buy something nice for your wife while you are at it, and leave THAT receipt out where she will find it. Make sure it is something her girlfriends will fawn over! While you are at it don't forget to go to confession next Saturday and leave a five in the donation box on the way out!

Tom seems to have forgetten about ole' Brian. what does Brian get for becoming an (up until now) unwilling accomplice? 3 or 4 tuna hunters & we're cool. won't tell a soul. promise. ........seriously.......;)

Brian,
I didn't forget, I just figured you would work out some sort of deal with the guys, I guess 3 or 4 Tuna Hunters would be about right for a $1,000 repair. I think the going rate used to be one pack of Owner hooks and a Williamson Benthos jig per $400 of tackle laundering? Been a while since I fished, but I guess with inflation and such, 3 or 4 Tuna Hunters might be fair.
BTW, if all of your wives know each other, make sure to space out the raffle winning so they don't get suspicious!

can someone please yell at me and scold me on this trip... gonna miss ol Snagged! He sure kept me on my toes, and the made the learning curve happen a little faster than normal!!! I STILL remember sitting on the back of the Gulf Eagle with Snagged teaching me how to "Load" my spinning reel with braid... I wound that damn 60000000000 yards of line on the reel, and just when I thought I was done.. he said "now, let it all out behind the boat"... WTF!!! I did, and wound all 6000000000 yards back on ! took about an hour total, and I was tired as heck! he was just grinning!! That damn line was packed as hard as a brick though! He sure knew what he was talking about!

It'd be real hard to fill Jerry's shoes, but we've got some really,really old guys that together do a damn good job!!!!
I think this trip is gonna be fun with all the OG's on it.
Wonder whatever happened to Pat Ward (Walleye)?
Anybody remember his '95 taurus leaving the parking lot with the trunk so full of tuna the bumper was dragging!!
I know somebody had a picture of that.......

TOO- Any updates on how the November trip is filling up?
If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles.

The November TFF Trece Tuna Charter is currently at 10 confirmed reserved and 4 spot asked for from TFF'er's, but no response to securing those spots. We are going through a bunch of TFF members' emails to see if anyone else is committing to the November 2014 TFF Trece Tuna Charter. We will send out a group email regarding this particular charter within 24 hours. We will discuss all options. TOO- Any updates on how the November trip is filling up?
