Presidents Message
August 2019
Captain Tommy Donlin was in the house for our July 17th general meeting. It’s always great to have Tommy come and talk with the club. He always has fantastic information and knowledge to share with us all on Tuna. You can tell he’s passionate about it as well. He should be because his trips are very successful. If there is one thing you will learn with these tuna is that you had better plan and plan some more when you think you have it understood. Be prepared and bring your “A” game. Tommy brings a lot of championship caliber thought to how he fishes for tuna and so should we all. Fresh albacore will be hitting the docks at Westport and a few other coastal marinas very soon.
