[quote]Pretty standard for them to do all the work getting fish on and then handing rod to customer to catch. You have to realize that a large percentage of their customers are idiots and will just create a cluster frick if they let them set lines, etc.[/quote] That makes sense. I know they were p...

[quote]I understand your frustration. I just never been on a charter where the captain let customers hook the fish using live bait for tuna. Maybe when the fishing is on fire but when it’s slow the deckhand and captain will work the reels until a fish is hooked using live baits.[/quote] I wish...

It was Voodoo. We were supposed to go out on a 42 yellowfin but got swapped to a 39 the day before so I don’t know if they gave us the D team cause the regular captain couldn’t make it. Spent almost $1300 in fuel too. ...

Venice Tuna Trip Question

Met some long time friends down in Venice and went out Friday to go tuna fishing on one of the charter boats. Is it common for them to not let you actually fish? The two kids running the boat told us “they would hook them and we could real them in”. Overall the experience was poor but this s...
