NJFishing Tuna Trip on the Gambler

[Muldune]

Howie,
Thank you for puting this trip together.Had a blast,It was a pleasure fishing with such a great group of guys.
Capt Bob, Mates Kevin.Keith,and Sean of the Gambler are second to non.Landing 2 yellowfins is a great way to start the tuna season. Would have loved to see Jon Devin in his Kayack at one of those pots.LOL.

Another fun trip with a great bunch of guys. Capt Bob told us before we left the dock that the bite has been between 5am-7am. Keith started getting people pumped up around 4:30am to fish hard. We were prepared and Muldune started things off with the first hook up. He showed his experience by weaving his way thru a crowed stern to the corner where he got the first fish on the boat. I thought that a jig bite would start up and I wanted to be clear of the masses but there were no fish on the jig at this time. I went back into the fray and hooked up only to lose the fish. There was a great flury of activity and all the mates did a great job handling the fish and tangles. The weather could not have been better and the group was a lot of laughs. Thank you Howie for the hard work of setting this up for the groups enjoyment.

Thank you very much for taking the ride offshore with us, men. As always, great bunch of fishermen.

Glad you guys trusted me with the sea report.

We almost shang-hied Andy S who came to the dock to see us off.

I wish the bite would have lasted another 2 hours but I'm thankful for what we did catch. And the mahis helped put a few guys back at the rail.

Bummer losing mate Stan. He mashed his finger bad. Looks like he'll be off deck for a couple weeks.

Still plenty of openings on up coming trips.

Thank you Howie for putting the trip together.

Glad to hear you guys got into them. It is tough waiting all night for a bite.
Looks like you had beautiful weather. Any Swords around??

Any chance you folks want to get on the trip scheduled for 9/28-9/29?? It looks like about twelve want to go now although half have not deposited yet, and we need some more to get this sushi party going.

As always, Capt Bob and his mates, Keith, Kevin and Sean are always top notch--the best-- and all are enthusiastic...Great boat, captain and crew...
