Tred Barta's passing
Sad to hear that Tred Barta passed away.
Tred was one if the best tuna fisherman in the world. Period. He wrote the book on bigeye tuna fishing. I always read his articles and looked up to Tred. You wanted to be Tred. One article I have saved is from the Big Game Journal which wrote about one of many of Tred's two to three day bigeye trips. The food, prep, how every penny went to fishing, the weather, the catch, trolling all night etc. etc. Coming back in to the dock with the scuppers 5" below the waterline. Staying out when some of the commercial guys were heading back in. The stories go on and on. RIP Tred...thanks for all of the tips and information. Much appreciated. Joe T.
