If you never fished on a Head Boat it is interesting to say the least. The last boat that I worked was 65' & on weekends there would be 60 passengers. If you think that's bad in the 80's I worked deck on an 85' boat with 94+ people-my son was the 94th. We had 1 man with 80+ Blue Fish that trip.

Whoa...that would keep a mate busy.

We had 5-6 crew on deck back then. Between Gaffing some larger Blue Fish & tangles it was interesting. I do miss this even though I'm 70 now, I would give it a try one more time. Then slip me over the Stern on the way back to Port.

I have seen some of Captain Al's pictures where the deck is solid bluefish. Amazing mess.

Capt. Al was the master at finding the first schools of Blue Fish way offshore where no one else would go.
