Pier Fishermen Tuna trip

I am working on getting a group together to go out on a 36 hour tuna/bottom trip on the 8th and 9th of July. The boat is the 65ft Emerald Spirit out of Sportsmans Marina. The total cost per person is 600.00. This covers the cost of the trip, as well as the tip for the crew. The boat can handle 12 people for the trip. The vessel has 12 bunks, air conditioning, satelite tv, and showers on board, as well as a Green egg to cook dinner on. As of right now I have 8 spots of the 12 that are filled. If you are interested in going with us just shoot me a pm and let me know. This is actually the cheapest way I have found to do a tuna trip and what better group of people to go with than your pier fishing brothers.

If I didn't have to pay $1500 for my hunting lease I would be all over it.

Sooo no one interested in going?

Wish I had the money and time.

Me ;-) haha

I might be interested if you didnt mind me not being a regular on the pier.

No not at all.

I will see what I can do, things are tight since job change, but I will let you know as soon as I know anything, By the way thank you for the opportunity

If you thought about going and decided not to, eat your heart out!
We made it back and had a blast!!! Fish On! Fish On! Fish On! Fish On!

I hate to complain.....but not being able to see the whole picture sometimes is a real pain with out scrolling over :boohoo: sorry

yep and that would have been an awesome trip to be on with a lot of good folks

looks like a lot of sore arms and backs to me :poke1:
love some food on the green egg....the only way to grill

Hate that i missed this. Really wanted to go, but life happens.

Looks like you folks had a blast out there! Wonderful catches for sure.

1100 photos??? Did you bother fishing at all?? LOL

Only one word to describe it: NARRRGH!!

What did James catch the sword on....bait wise?? thanks

Whole squid.

Now that's a fishing trip! Congrats on the catch!

Awesome catch folks! :yippee:

VG, 1,103 pics to be exact. I fished once, but my job was to keep my photographer hat on; I did, and I had a blast. First real photographer gig.

Fishing, expensive
Taking photos, fun
Spending 36 hours on a boat with your friends, PRICELESS!!!

My internet service has been down since about 9AM plus putting up fish today, I am a tad behind in get out pics. I am hanging out the Do Not Disturb sign for a couple days.
I am sure others have some pics to post too.
Later

:fishing: Looks like a great time, smiling faces tell the tale! :headbang:

That looks like a trip to remember. :yay:

[size=12pt]There are six albums of the tuna trip uploaded to my Photobucket account on the www. I am giving you links to each album so you don’t have to search for them and can see what a good time was had by all.
If you click “View Slide Show”, it will show all the pics in the album, but the sequence is in reverse order due to the bulk up-loader. Sorry about that, but I would still be uploading pics this time next week if I did it individually.
If you click on a thumbnail the pic will open and you can page thru the pics one at a time.
