How's this picture for elaboration?

And the Duffman quote of the trip, " I can't possibly jig anymore........ well one more time."

One HELLUVA Trip! I had a great time, and I'm sure everyone else did also.

First I won the reel in the raffle, Thanks Doug! it's a beuty. I was going to use this as my tie breaker with Duffman, but he pulled way ahead!

Captain Bob, thanks again, for everything. Especially giving Andy a new sweatshirt. Next weekend we'll have a "Burn Party" so we never have to see or smell that outfit again!

Duffman has "Popeye" arms after landing five Tuna, and "missing" two. Dan has developed a new style of catch and release. Duffman was getting jiggy with the fish, matter of fact Duffman was a bit jiggy himself after slugging down a six pack of Red Bull and a couple cups of coffee, he was hard to stop! Oh, yeah, that special "Catch and Release", yeah Dan, you need to take the protective tubes off the Jig hooks for them to hook up! LOL
There was also a rumor going about the boat that Duffman mugged some third grade kids to get their light sticks that they had just bought the last of at Wally World, so that he could Sword Fish!
Ray Rod is definately an "Extremist". He chunk fish's with a 12/0 fishing reel, and then jigs with a trout rod!

Great Trip, here are some pics!

Hey Duffman, Did you have 6 different meat tag numbers? You should play the Lotto with them numbers! Maybe your luck will continue!

Well, what can I say another great trip................that I didn't go on and was very successful. Proving to me even more so that I am a jinxed fisherman and you guys are lucky. Glad to see a better trip this time, sure looks like it was the chaos I was predicting on the first NJFishing trip in September. Next year I'm telling the wife we'll celebrate the anniversary MUCH AFTER the date so I can go on a trip that will be productive.....Nice job Capt and to the guys on the trip. Enjoy the steaks...

Sick trip. Yft's in the 20lb range but plenty to go around. Unreal # at 54 landed, especially with the way the last month or so of tuna season has gone. Size doesnt matter, amount of the steaks in freezer DOES!

#1 - I guess it goes w/o saying, you guys are the hardest working M/F's there are! Everyone pinned to the rail even when nothing was doing, REAL GOOD STUFF!
#2 - Jig4them - your an animal! you must have some jig workout machine at your house that builds forearms and shoulders, the dude just doesnt quit.
#3 - John has "tuna karma" written all over him. Andy, ever have a bad trip with him aboard?
#4 - OK, so its called a "trevala" but landing a tuna on a piece of spagehti just isnt for me.
#5 - apparently everything in the DR is edible.
#6 - Charlie caught a 'big sword" -nowait "big allison" no wait "that blue shark that was swimming around earlier" no wait - "its a nice yellowfin" but inthe end it a was a.......well you know!

I'm done, report could have been better if I opted for sleep instead of a 4 hour happy hour on the ride home!

AS always - Capt Mike, Capt John , Capt Greg and Stan - absolute great job fellas. Flawless trip end to end. You guys run a great boat. Nice coming home top dog!

Ton more to add.....stories to follow...work is gonna suck tommorrow, good night.
