Captain Dave Preble out of Pt. Judith.
I went out with him in August 2000 to see if we could find some tuna.
We warmed up just south of the Block to collect some bloofish and headed offshore.
Saw plenty of tuna, but they weren't biting (skippies and yellowfin).
So we switched to plan B and tangled with some enormous makos and blue dogs (500 lbs).
Better than working out pumping iron. I thought I was going to pass out on the 2nd blue dog of the day.
Had to change my shorts when we saw a basking shark that had to be like 3,000 pounds jump out of the water not too far from the boat. Will never forget it.
Good time - conscientious skipper too. Loves the offshore.
