Wicked Tuna
 
Who is looking forward to the new season? I would like to see Marciano have a great season the guy deserves it.

Rob Rockcrawler 01-01-2013 05:13 PM

I like the show, been waiting for the new season.

Raider Ronnie 01-01-2013 07:38 PM

The only shows I watch are on Discovery, National Geo & a few others like the one that has the show How it's made.
You couldn't pay me to watch any of these reality shows or ones like American Idol ect......
Wicked Tuna is a lot better than the stupid show they got on now, Moonshiners.

I'm not sure how his season went but I read on FB that his boat sank while at the dock. They were able to raise it but had some damage.

They need more fishing and less trash talking it gets old quick

nightfighter 01-13-2013 12:13 PM

Season one marathon on now through 7pm. Season two opener tonight

Typhoon 01-14-2013 08:44 AM

Pretty good. Better than watching American idol.

They should just run a 1 hr show of rods going off. I could watch that all night. It's like a heroin junkie watching a show of people shooting up.

nightfighter 01-14-2013 09:42 AM

"We're setting up on my secret spot...." with half a dozen boats in the camera shot behind them....:smash:

It did get me jonesing to get back out there.

Was lucky enough to get an invite to the season two premier party in Boston Friday night. Real nice group of guys. Had a great time speaking with them all.

I want a reel like the guys on the Hard Merchandise. It changes colors from silver to gold and back during the fight.

Also,
One minute Sandro on .com is jigging bait with a shimano tld,
next second (same scene ) he's using a penn 113

PRBuzz 01-21-2013 07:31 AM

Don't watch the seas, from FAC to 3-4'...editors take a little too much for granted!:smash:

MakoMike 01-21-2013 09:08 AM

They really need a better continuity editor. In last night's episode one fish was fought on three different rods & reels.

Fly Rod 01-21-2013 10:10 AM

U guys R finally catching on....:)

PRBuzz 01-21-2013 10:51 AM

Tuna fishing is BORING, no one would watch the real thing!

Fly Rod 01-28-2013 10:56 AM

Dave Marciarno was taken to the hospital after fainting and hitting his head on a door knob while watching episode 3 at home last nite

iamskippy 01-28-2013 11:07 AM

I am really starting to not like this show, i think its horrible, stop the drama, stop the bs. I care about fishing. Honeslty i hope Tyler rips ralphs head off but they are really ruining the shot, and the bounty hunter is pathetic, good god man give it up retire if all you are going to whine......

I think the show showcases how absurdly dumb these guys are. Frankly I think it gives an overall poor image to the public. The intra-boat BS that is displayed on that show is not like that in real life(and most fisherman would not put up with that crap ) and makes them (comm tuna fisherman) look like a rather dim-witted group. I don't watch it anymore. Sportfish guys are a much more intelligent as a group.

Actually it happens in real life too.....in the cod charter fleet I have seen that intra-boat BS happen a few times over numbers.......

Yeah I have too... "Hey!! get off my numbers!!" That always kills me.

Typhoon 01-29-2013 08:02 AM

The cod charter nonsense is ridiculous. These are my humps!

The southwest corner is my spot. Get off it.

I was explaining to my wife how the P-town boats seem to get along just fine with the drift fishing off the race for giants. There's no fighting. Everyone drifts in an orderly fashion.

MakoMike 01-29-2013 09:21 AM

Remember, even though this is "reality TV" the story lines and much of the meaning of what is said is scripted. What you see on TV isn't necessarily representative of how those guys really are. The producers need to introduce some drama to keep the audience entertained.

Fly Rod 01-30-2013 03:26 PM

Marciarno had a kat-scan and nothing was found...he was released and will be going back for futher testing

sokinwet 01-30-2013 03:49 PM

On the show they argue about numbers....on the NW they leave their anchor & ball out in the same spot for days. A real PIA dropping the hook and then seeing a ball 100 yds. of your stern.
