Typhoon is right on the money

In the last episocde they tried to pass off the Capt of the Tuna Hunter Gary as a "Charter from HI". Show is a complete fabrication with tuna fishing as the back drop.

Make sure you keep your regular job.... the old saying is:"If you want to go broke go tuna fishing."

I fished on the Tuna Hunter last year with Gary. I was trying to figure out what the hell the client comment was about. Gary seemed to know more about what was going on than the crew on the boat did.
