FairWeather · #1 (**permalink**) 12-14-2007, 02:28 PM

First Off I would like to thank Member Blue Magic (Fernando) for offering up this trip to be auctioned off!

I have personally fished with Fernando off the Outer Banks and this MAN knows how to raise fish!

This is also the guy who ended up catching 2 Big Eye's while on the Outer Banks for the OBX Fun-n-Fish last year.

Here's the details.

This Trip is scheduled for around the LAST Week of February.

On this trip you will be targeting the Yellowfind Tuna, located in Venice, LA area.

This trip is for you and 3 or 4 others. With Gas prices where they are these days, Fernando and I have decided to start the bidding at $250.00.

If you have questions before bidding, please contact either myself or Blue Magic so we can answer them.

Let the Bidding Begin!

Bidding will End of this auction depending upon activity, but I"m going to say somewhere around the middle of Jan.

The dates are Saturday Feb 23 with a weather date of Sunday Feb 24. If weather is a factor I'll rescheuled the trip for sometime in March.
The reason for fishing this time of year is that the tuna are huge and range from 80 to 200 lbs.
Captain Eddie who runs a 36 Palmetto out of Venice is a very respectible captain in that area. He's on this forum and I'm sure he will keep us updated on his catches.

Here are some links for the area:
