while that may be true....the only reason he circulates
in port to the other boats is just to rub their noses in it...
and nothing else..... |

My understanding is these guys didn't even talk to each other, let alone fish with each other before the show .....it's a show. |

I went out on the Bounty Hunter last year with a friend who chartered the boat. He got one fish about 72". The fish was stuck before they knew if it was legal or not. I didn't understand why they would harpoon it if they were not sure that it was legal. Caught the fish on a mackeral dangling from a kite.
I would rather have gone out on a boat that was targeting sbft rather than waiting around all day for one fish. I spent 12 hours on that boat and it was too long. They obviously work hard for their fish.

Dotcom can catch fish, that is for sure..... Hard Merchandise at least made a break to find fish away from the weekend warriors..... But the rest of the show sucked..... Bunch of whining babies. Someone "jumped" MY numbers. Screaming at anchored boats to move when "they" arrive on scene. Has done nothing but convince me to have a firearm onboard when I go out in the future. Fatheaded A holes. Eff them and anyone who thinks they are right to tell an anchored boat to move. get there earlier........

Steve,
Dave on the .com I believe put over 80 on the boat last year. The dude is a stud ;like him or not. As for not speaking to each other I believe the term "casual" acquaintances is appropriate.
Jet BLue pays well also........

I agree...
When Discovery was doing lobster wars, it was something like 5 or 10k... I can't imagine a smaller network is paying 70K |

The big established Fairhaven boat(s) saw 10k, the young guns running around, not so much. |

Hard Merchandise puts his share of fish on the floor in Tokyo also... Don't let him kid you. He isn't eating raman noodles every night.

I might change the name of my boat to "The Googan"
It seems like there will not be one positive thing that comes out of this show for the tuna fishery.

anyone catch sundays episode? it wasd nice to see more fish and less b/s...also nice to see some small throw backs(show made it look like there was only giants around), it was a bit annoying that dave on tuna.com kept wineing about not getting the biggest tuna. The rest of the fleet knew it bothered him and kept grinding him lol.
also liked when hard merchandise hooked up while on a cod charter....

We anal-ize it with scrutiny because it's our own back yard.
The show is for television entertainment 95 % of the people watching are never going tuna fishing. Just like I'll never be on an Alaskan crab boat, or lobstering on georges.
I'm sure if any of the footage of the fishbucket comes out there will be some eyebrows raised as well :shock:

I will have to say, Bill on Bounty Hunter should try to get up a little earlier if he needs to catch tuna to pay the bills.... JK
The boys that were on Dave's numbers were not "Googans" either....

Seems the nature of these shows to always make it a boxing match. The lobster wars were pathetic,guess trying to make catching lobster interesting for a tv show you need confrontation.

Like the editing: one shot mirror surface, next shot 2-4 ft'ers! 
Capts are saying season coming to end/last trip (imply Oct/Nov) and we are only going into episode #5?  |
