Cost / Person: 12 people $1058/10 people-$1350
Number of People: 12

Hi folks, this post is a request of an experienced offshore fishermen that is trying to set up a GEM 07 trip with Captain Tomeny out of Port Fourchan, LA.

The dates of the trip are Sunday October 7th- Wednesday October 10th, 2007.
We have been instructed to inquire about moving the charter to Friday October 5th to Monday October 8th, as well as increase the number of fishermen to 12 to lower the cost per person
This 3 night period is going into the new moon that occurs on the 11th of October.
The estimated cost will be around $1,350 for 10 fishermen and $1,058 for 12 fishermen and that includes the following:

1. Fuel cost up to $2.25-$2.30 a gallon, (currently fuel is costing Captain Tomeny about $2.05, but that can change as you know),
2. A 15% gratuity (in the past 7.5% up front and the balance paid after the trip depending on the service)
3. Our fee to keep everyone in line and in order so there are no surprises on costs at the end of the trip

The only things not included are the license costs ($15), lodging before and after the trip, and food. Additional gratuity above the amount of 7.5% is up to the indivdual depending on his experience after the charter.

We can arrange for food to be on board, or other options, when folks get there, but that issue will wait until the trip is secured.

The idea is to have the GEM style trip occur for 2007 for 10-12 people as in the past. Currently, there are 4 people on this trip, and 3 people trying to clear their schedules to mak the trip. The GEM 06 group was very happy with Captain Tomeny's effort and the charter chief hopes that 10 people can and will commit to chance to fish the Green's Canyon area and other deep rigs in Ocotber for tuna, and then grouper, snapper, AJ's, etc during the day.

There is no reservation or limit on how to fish, chunking, topwaters, jigging, etc, all are fully acceptable.

If you are interested in this charter, please email at too@outdoorstexas.com or PM or call (210)215-3877 and we'll discuss the particulars.

gman, here's a link to view Tomeny's boat's:

Untitled Document

The Carribean Sea is a 65' walk around design with an open bow good for casting poppers and surface iron. The stern has large fish boxes but plenty of room and was popular for jigging and chunking. The cabin is fairly basic but had plenty of seating, a large pantry area for food storage, a stove top, and a micro. There was a grill outside. Bunks were below deck as was the shower. I think the GEM 06 crew were pretty satisfied with the boat.

Here a link to the Captain's homepage:

Here's a link to Deep_Sea_Gull's and Ragman's GEM 06 reports:

FishCraze.com ::

Report: GEM 2006 Port Fourchon, La.

A quick run down of the schedule would be to depart Sunday morning and run all day to Green's Canyon with maybe a stop to make bait or a little trolling. Fish tuna on the floaters all night and run inshore a bit to some AJ/Grouper/Snapper spots in the morning. Repeat the following two days with plenty of time to try new techniques/tackle and do some exploring for new spots or ??? Depart the fishing grounds Wednesday morning to return to shore. There will be flexibilty so that the crew can decide what they would like to do. Maybe a night for swords or ?

I'm excited to get this trip put together and hope it's as appealing to you as it is to me. Bert

Very cool gman!!! I'll be glad to fish with you. Are you a jigger guy, popper guy, or ? I've still got jigs and flying fish from last year waiting to be broken in. Bert

Im well rounded LOL

In my gut that is. I am a mixed breed, Ive always been a bait guy. BIG sharks, tuna etc. However This year I started jigging hard. I live in New Jersey but my company is located in Houston so I fish alot of of POC.

I will jig, pop and dunk bait anything to get my rod bent at the time. Just upgraded all my gear this year so I will be well armed. Cant wait
