This was one heck of a good time catching Yellowfin tuna off the coast of Venice Louisiana. We were fishing with Captain Travis of the Mexican Gulf Fishing Company. Captain Travis was
the bomb. He could put you on the fish. We caught 8 tuna that were between 80-110 pounds. My son, Reese and I were whooped by the end of the day.

Dang, that is an incredible haul! Nice work. How far offshore did you have to go? How far out is that oil rig?
