    I’m an albacore fisherman in BC Canada,we got similar prices and our expenses are high too,especially fuel. Buyers are making more money than the fishermen risking everything. Like you,I do it because I love it. Tight lines.

    Joe you are growing in popularity man. Proud to say I've been subscribed for over 3 years now so I've seen you grow from less than 3k subs. You're doing good man. All your videos are well edited and shot. You don't act crazy or make crazy titles that are clickbait. You're honest and real which in a lot of these YouTube channels that do fishing stuff, is very rare. Those guys use their subscriber numbers to get free trips, gear and special things then act like they pay for it all themselves which everyone knows is not true. Granted you are sponsored by some companies, but you aren't in Mexico promoting some resort and acting like you've been friends with the owners for years and hang out all the time, wmeanwhile forgetting that just 5 minutes previously we saw you meeting the owner and having to introduce yourself to them. Like what?
  • @Alan-gw8zk
    Great video and thanks for being real , most don’t and don’t realize how much money goes into a fishing trip also . Hopefully you channel will explode and help

    I'm no commercial fisherman but I fish quite a bit in the Nothern Gulf of Mexico. Your videos are quite good, and yes, very educational.

    Joe on the air again!! The whole time they were fighting that fish I would find my right hand moving as if it was turning a reel. Damndest thing!

  • @noelwest8234
    Thank you Joe for sharing the information on what the tuna are worth. I could not believe you pulled the tune up over the side rail. And you all put the dart all the way through Charlie. 🤣 🎉🎉Most of all congratulations on the new niece. 🥳🥳🥳

    My nephew is a charter fishing captain here in Florida near Tampa. End of January he was using a sabki rig to catch pinfish for bait. He had a couple of small pinfish on his line reeling them up and suddenly his pole doubled over. He had 6 lb braid on. Way over kill for the rig, but he also uses that rod for inshore fishing with shrimp. You know how it goes. He fights whatever it is up and then sees he has a big red grouper on the line. He finally got it up and it was a 12lb red hiding out near some oyster beds 20 ft from a seawall and a beach in about 40ft of water. The grouper swallowed the top pinfish and he was guthooked essentially from inside and then of course he got wrapped up in the other hooks agter throwing the other fish off. He was psyched. He had a client and his son on so they were psyched too. They wanted to stay there and fish, not realizing how rare that is.

  • @markloh3406
    Well done Joe, have always wanted to know - when you bleed out the tuna on the side of the boat aren’t you worried that a shark will attack the fish and take your catch. Thanks

    Never landed a Tuna {aku} over 25lbs but we where in Hawaii in the early 90's with a Bass boat : 15'6" Champion running 5 lines with a 70hp Evinrude outboard and 50gal fuel cell and epirb we live baited tuna using the needle method. We mainly target Marlin had a few hook ups and landed 1x 180lb blue and 1x 102lb sail fish . plenty of Mahi Mahi and Ono or known as Wahoo the locals thought we where crazy , but our boat unlike theirs was unsinkable wood frame and fiberglass and foam injected , we where safe and never went out if there where white caps and our runs to the grounds where never over 1 mile and with in sight of the island .

    I didn't know this... " Bluefin Tunas are endothermic, which means that they utilize metabolic heat to elevate and maintain regional body temperatures that are warmer than the ambient seawater temperature." Not truly "warm blooded" but close. Also, these big fish in 60' of water is crazy. Cheers! 🤠

    About 20 years ago, a friend of mine caught a monster Blue Fin off the south east coast of Australia. It weighed 263Kg which is almost 600 Lbs. He and his trauler team sold it to the Asian market for $60,000. I saw the News footage photo of it and it was like the size of a freakin Shark hoisted up. It was HUGE!
