I can't beleive my luck. Canceled out of a tuna charter for the second time this season. Because of the multiple cancelations, I have had two friends drop out of the trip. So I have two open spots to go chase bluefin and maybe some yellow on The Prowler with Al Anderson. I think that most people would agree he is among the best at this game. The trip leaves from Point Jude on October 8th a Thursday. the plan is to head out and chase draggers. If you are interested pm me for details. The trip will cost between 200-300 Bucks depending on what do plus a tip for the mate. The weather can be tough offshore so think this over well.

I am interested.
The 8th is a Friday.... If it is the 7th, I am not so interested.
Is it all day, overnight?
Also, what is the limit?
Do I need gear?
Can I bring gear?
Other details would be cool.
Thanks
Zac

Are ya sure? Yellowfins probably. A giant bluefin I doubt it. That is a money fish especially this time of year.

i always wondered how it worked if ya catch a giant. I know a 1000 pound fish is serious money. So do you still have to pay for your trip or is it comped. it wouldnt make any sence if ya still had to pay for the trip if the capt keeps the catch. Always wondered bout this, anyone have the answer for me. ?

The trip is a one day affair. We will leave around 3 am. Striaght out to the canyon to follow draggers. You can keep two fish under 72 inches. Bluefin and all the yellow,round eye, long fin and black fin you want. Gear is provided as well as tackel and bait. This a fist class charter on the Prowler. Al anderson is the king of Tuna in RI. A trip of a lifetime.

Duke,
Limits on yellowfin is three per man over 27 inches. Limit on Bluefin, on a charter boat is three per boat over 27 inches and less than 72 inches. One per boat 72 inches or bigger. No bag limits on longfin or skippies or bigeye.
