The Bergstedt family fished with us today on Halloween. It was Sharon’s birthday and we had a good day at sea to celebrate. We trolled down to the dolphins and fished the tuna stick most of the day. It was poor timing for the traffic. There were a lot of boats there which made it …
We had a nice couple of days of fishing focused on our goal. A spearfish. By this time word had spread of our quest. Everyone in the fleet was helping us try to find one but they weren’t to be found. At 2:30 in the afternoon on our last day we hooked another nice Blue …
We had the pleasure of fishing with the top notch fishing team from New Zealand. The team fishes ultra light tackle for fish far about the ratio of the line. They had broken over 20 billfish records most of them in the last few years. Capt. John Batterton has been an old friend for years …
Geza got the tuna on great timing on 2 great days. The fish have been in the dolphins and we were able to get on them pretty good. We had good action on the tuna stick and some luck live baiting for them. The fall can be hard fishing due to the small food fish …
Today we had Donny on board and caught a bait in the morning!!!! Finally. It was a good bait and found a spot down the hatch. The circle found a spot in the corner and we were on.We took the fish that was bigger than the 300 qualifying weight. It was a nice sized fish …
Steve Cireco Came back to fish with us again this year and his timing on the new moon couldn’t have been better. We started off with a fish that bit and took off getting us in the dacron right away. It was evident that something was wrong when it went down and we could see …
Dr Wengler and his friends came to visit once again. Dr Mike was armed with his cameras and we got some great images together again. This fish was a wild one that jumped back at us and passed the boat as it exploded up the side. Again I had to drive and had to put …
Tim Robbins of the meat distributing company Paq Inc put a group trip together to hunt and fish with us. We fished 3 days with 3 boats and had fairly good action. The marlin fishing slowed down a bit and we were able to get into the tuna fairly well. The OTEC Buoy was biting …
Today Terry Ann and I invited Tracy Epstein out with us on the 37. We had 6 great summers fishing together so we got our old team together for a day. This trip we had done most of our fishing on the 40 Gamefisherman and went to the 37 for the last day. It was …
My dad Kent and Terry have become close friends over the years and he looked forward to catching up with Terry while he was here. Even better my dad is a good photographer and I was happy to have him there to shoot pictures for us after I missed a great shot the day before …
We were long awaiting the reunion of Terry and Ann Fohey the previous owners of the Northern Lights. The many great times we had over the years were too many to count and we looked forward to making more. The 37 Merritt served as the perfect boat for our mission to fish with our families …
