Mexican gulf is top notch, Capt. Matt put us on some fish. We fished a day with solid 5 footers and it was a walk in the park for that Freeman.

I went with Voodoo a few years ago and the trip wasn't good bc it was a bad year for tuna. No charters were doing good. They charge for gas on top of charter fee and it was pricey. Going on July 10th with Paradise outfitters. Cost of trip is $2600 which includes gas but doesn't include tip which is 20% of charter fee. The cousin I'm going with has been with them several times and says they did good each time.

We went out with Paradise Outfitters yesterday and had a good day. Went on the 42’ cat and got a couple of swords tuna and limit on snapper. Capt and deckhand were top notch and worked hard to keep on hooked up. I would definitely go back with them, and the 42’ had waaay more room to fish than a lot of other boats

How many tuna was caught? Always wondered on average does everyone catch or only a few are caught

I really doubt he has any dates open but Cory is legit. We have gone with him the last 3 years and smoked the fish every time.

Eta: I am not sure if he does day time tuna trips all of ours have been overnighters. If you can stand being on a boat That long it is much more productive than a day trip. Plus seeing tuna school 30ft under the boat is awesome.

We only caught 2, but that seemed to be about average for this weekend. But it’s been pretty good overall this year
