Westport Albacore - August edition

[Brno375]

The ride out was rough, and a few people were already sick. I woke up at 0500 and waited for the gray light to show through the hatch. Once it did I got up and set the trolling rods out. I was putting the 4th rod in it's holder when two rods lit up. Capt. Mike ran back to help me because no one else was up. First 5 minutes and we had two in the box.
 
I don't know how many fish I handed off to seasick people to get them into the game, but it worked because they were on the rail catching fish and forgot about being sick!

It was a great trip!  Steve, I was up when you got up but was in no condition to fish. Thanks for handing me a rod once I finally made it on deck, it helped.  The fishermen and crew were a great bunch of people, and Sydney, Aidan and Ed had a great time on their first tuna trip.  Hopefully we fish together again. Is Yuwan, Edward, and David on here?

I now have a prescription for the patch to be filled once I cross the line again.  What used to be an over the counter medication is no longer available here in Kanada.  I tried an organic patch but it's definitely just a placebo.

Thanks Ryan for organizing the trip.

Adam,

It was nice to meet you and your family! Ed was a kick, very funny guy.

Sydney and I have kept in touch, she sent me some pics of your fish processing, looked very organized.

Hope you and the fam can make it again next year!

I didn't know they only sold the "real deal" patches south of the border! Hope you can get some relief with the real patch next time. I have only seen 2 people get sick while wearing one.

Yuhang, Albert, and David aren't on here. Albert is an old friend of mine from college who has an insatiable appetite for adventure. David and Yuhang are buddies of his. Despite some issues with the motion of the ocean, they all had a good trip!

Next year will be great!
