Went out on a 2 day SC surffishing charter out of Seaforth sportfishing(buddy got sick I took his place) in SD. I have to say that this trip was one of the best experiences I have EVER had fishing. The guys at the Pacific Voyagers tried REALLY hard these past couple of days..The crew, people I fished with, and the landing were REALLY impressive..Although we didnt get a group load of tuna they worked really hard to make sure we had a great experience. Jeff the cook was AMAZING I think I gained 10lbs in the past few days...it was unreal!!

This was my first 2 day charter and I would have to say that now I understand why people do these trips so much. I cant say enough of how great and energetic capt Mark was...REAL people..no salesmen, just REAL people that just love what they do, and thats something I felt while I was on the boat TOTAL positive engery..Pacific Voyager I THANK YOU for a great experience on your boat!! Here are some of the pics I took.


This was my first time catching a tuna of any kind...and yes I ate the heart and I will post video up when I get it. lol Didnt throw up or gag either lol..I chewed if for a while too lol. taste great!

It was great to share the rail again with Juan!

Honestly it wasnt bad..If you like sushi you can eat the heart...The heart is a muscle and so its the meat ya eat when you eat sushi!...just a bit tougher...just dont think about it too much. Just do it and down it! LOL

Congrats on the tuna. I agree, 2-day trips are the way to go. Much better chance of getting into fish, better range & much more fishing time. Thanks for the report.
