Is it as easy as it looks on Wild Tuna ? Seems like a fun retirement hobby.

Yes - IMO. But the fish are constantly migrating and fuel, boat, gear, marina costs are the rub.

Plus you have to live on the east coast. Icky... Carolinas would be tolerable I guess.

the collar - a$$holes at the cleaning surface refused to cut off or out the cheeks - got a feeling they poach them for themselves

I'd have told them I want the head so I could get a shoulder mount and then cut the cheeks out myself. Awesome Fish!! What were the dimensions of that beast??

can't recall if I ever put a tape to it - but it was 120 or 130lb - a little one we could keep - ha ha

That looks like a blast. I should prob get my feet wet deep sea fishing one of these years!

I see by the footwear you were disco dancing with the crew. Disco sucks. Disco is dead. In pain; I must ask why?

I don't care if you were disco dancing. You're still pretty keen in my book.
