Sal Ciulla That was a great day for the T. Y .W. U. Fishing team. We even saw Tuna on the way home but no hook ups.
Tom Mott Wow!!!!! Those were the days 😷👍
OK, today’s post is of Capt. Phil, Johnny DeDimaso, and I. With one of the only 2 Sailfish ever caught off Montauk. The only other one was caught by Capt. Frank Hammer, and Eddie “Waterking” Grant while fishing on the Salmar!!
Tim Day Tagged and released one last year Skip in Alvin canyon. I figured you’d already caught one up there.
Charles Martinez I have the tuna tower from the Salmar on my boat. I worked with Eddie re-doing the cabin. The water king was a great guy. So was Frank Hammer.
Glenn Haab good ole days
When we didn’t have a trip, Phil & I would supplement. Always fun when they got to the boat!!! LOL That’s Dina on the bridge.
Robert Weaver Great team👍👍👍
