Wicked Tuna Sunday March 17th

[Reel Class]

I actually just started watching the show a few weeks ago, and watched it at the very beginning when it first came on. I regained interest this winter because I have the time to watch it LOL. Initially, I took interest in the show because I spoke to Dave a few years ago on the phone about cod fishing right before my dad passed. We spoke for about 40 minutes about him being from NJ, the fisheries up in MA, and everything within our business and it was a great converssation. Dave came across as a great guy who has a world of knowledge, and also, being from NJ got my "due respect" up front - so Dave if you read this I WILL get up there to fish w/ you guys at some point in time

My take on the show: Marciano is old school, a VERY RESPECTABLE guy and somebody that's out there for the right reasons. The kid on the shiny boat w/ the long hair is an intense, passionate kid and he's a real gamer - gotta love that about his character too. He's running a tight ship and he knows what he wants and knows what he's doing. "Hot head" Ralph is intense - he's demanding - he's like most of us are at certain times. You never know if the cameras are playing up one side of him while at other times he's somebody else - at one point in last week's show he was bantering with the mate when he was "talking" - showing a playful side. I'm sure Ralph is a good guy.

And Sandro. Man that kid is good! He can fish, he can run the boat, and he can make Dave his coffee and oatmeal. Gotta love it!!(you reading this KENNY?)

I know one thing I don't want to do, ever, in Gloucester, is shoot that bridge with a HARD tide on my stern - that thing makes the train bridge in the Manasquan OR the old Route 88 PP Canal Bridge look like a walk in a park

Cool video. Neat to see all the people and effort behind the scenes to put together a great show.

Does all the production activity on the water have a negative effect on the fishing?

Hey Dave.. What was your total number of bluefin that you took last year?
