Number of People: 15-18

Hi folks, looking to see if there is interest in a 2nd annual Son-One 12 hour tuna charter on one of the party boats in Port Aransas this July.
Tenatively the dates I'm looking at are July 22nd or 23rd. That is the middle of the week just take that into consideration.
I have not decided on a particular boat or dock yet with things in a state of change in right now Port Aransas, but will do some more research and make a decision if there is demand for a party boat 12 hour tuna charter. I know the only captains and boats that can not be questioned/ discussed about over the 'net are in Louisiana, and this just a party boat charter, but so far our luck on party boats for tuna has been pretty good out of Port Aransas in the past. (BTW, I know Louisiana captains are very good at their work and provide a great service)
However, as said, there is some things that need to found out about in Port Aransas out before we book a boat.
We would limit the boat to 15-18, as Son-One is taller than awesum, but is not a lard butt, so 16 would be a good number again.( Not at all saying awesum is a lard butt)
Got an idea to run out there for folks.
I've got about 4-5 dad's with kids in the 12-14 year old range that had talked about doing a 12 hour tuna run & gun, including Earl, TOO for 3 dads/son's and another maybe dad/child.
Question is, would folks be interested having two charters that week?
A parent/child charter and then an adult only a day or two later? Both Tuna run and gun 12 hour charters.
Limit both to 16 or so fishermen?
If we get interest during that week of July 21st-25th, we can organize the one or two charters and get things going.
Cost will be aound $150'ish per person for the charter depending on the boat and dock, but we'll post the suggested details if there is interest in doing a 12 hour party boat run & gun charter during the week of July 21st-25th. Hope not too many foks are disappointed that this is just a party boat that expects to get paid for the service.
Post up if interested as well as to give input or suggestions. That is allowed with Texas party boats, right?

Yep, BFT if they can be found. Hopefully a Rogue YFT or two will show up. Has happened before.
Last year we deep dropped for AJ's and Snapper then hit the shrimpers and caught 22 BFT and some very, very big Bonito. It was a good charter even though it was only a party boat.
Need to add it would be an equal sharing trip, Son-one would pay my and his spot each equally.
Layout opinions on the dates, numbers, etc if you got them and are interested in going.

BB, the way this charter is not filling up, I would'nt ask anyone to try to fill two spots, much less try to make two charters happen. So calling for one spot would is fine.
Bazztex and awesum had mentioned being interested, a buddy of mine, Son-one and me so far are committed. Fishead56 maybe two spots, and you.
So 3 for certain, two purty sure,and 3 possibles. I'm guesing more specific stuff like a specific boat and date might draw more commitments.
Got two boats and captains that we'll choose from, will find out and post soon.

We had a great time on that trip last year!! I think that was the trip we caught just undersized AJ's all day long on jigs! And then we got into some BFT at the end of the day too. It was a really great trip!

I'm already committed for my July trips and won't be able to make this one.

Hope the trip comes together for your son.

Tom
