Hey guys initially for the locals cable vision ch 465 is the world fishing network WFN. Some good stuff some not so good.

In any case i found. www.insidesportsfishing.com

Check out the Royal Polaris episodes there must be 15 of them.

All episodes of guys on these long range tuna boats out of San Diego. Something I've been interested in doing and also like keeping up on the tackle and techniques that have made their way from the west coast to us.

A few episodes are basically the boat loaded with all the new Shimano gear and employees testing it out. Terez, waxwing, trevala, talica, trinidad etc.

They do trips up to 23 days.

I know that boat.. heres a boat I have a friend that works on right now.. they are biting.. some 200#ers and more. ..
10 dayers . this is the newest boat in San Diego.

They have video of that boat too. Haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

There is a video "marlin at the gate" with a bunch of B31 footage.

So have you been on the Intrepid? Looks like a great boat, great fishing and awesome food.

The prices are not much different than a full 6 days of fishing at TSL during the off season when they are always covered up with huge tuna. We have seen schools of YF tuna there in June that will scare ya.....plus you get the marlin, sails, and inshore stuff too.

I've never been on one of the long range trips, but a cruise ship gives me the creeps after a few days.......guess that's why they make more than one brand of beer.

Yes the boat is awesome.. the quietness & ride are unbelievable..
