Default Re: TUNA.Com. * Trip of a Lifetime

Truth be told, I no longer do tuna charters after the first week of August. Yes there are some exceptions. I give anyone that inquires about a giant trip to other boats up here. I only do tuna charters from Jume 1st through the frist week of August once again.

I average 1 giant every 2 days and our success rate with just my crew is very high, while with a charter we lose almost every fish.

So as a boat owner and doing the right thing for my customers that have been fishing with us for years, it's only fair I take them because they deserve the experience. Without them I would not be in business. I can afford to lose fish early in the year when the quality is very poor, however august and on it's not worth the risk for me. If anything, anyone of my regulars are welcome anytime free of charge to fish with us at this time of the year. No, not 6 persons, but 2 max. And yes they do come.

I think that's a very fair deal.
