Chef Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 So pumped I just can’t wait. A week from Friday I will be heading out to montauk to get on the Viking 5 star for a 48 hour Tuna charter. They say the target species are yellow fin, big eye, wahoo and mahi. Can’t wait to fill the freezer with fish.

BizCT Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Nice. Any chance for a shark? I have a friend who goes on a similar one or maybe the same one. He doesn’t care about fishing. He just drinks and wants the tuna lolSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moho81 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Sounds like a blast! Being in WNY I always forget that we have these fish off our east coast and do not have to fly out for an experience like that.

DoubleDose Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) I am an offshore fisherman. Here is some advice to best enjoy the trip. If there is a chance you will get seasick start taking Dramamine night before trip so in your system during trip. Bring clothes for different conditions, hot, cool, chilly, rain gear, fresh socks, waterproof shoes/boots. Sunscreen/block (SPF45 minimum). Stay hydrated. Have a large cooler filled with ice waiting for the trip home. Edited September 1, 2022 by DoubleDose 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
