Number of People: 2

24 hour trip with Captain Eddie out of Venice, LA. http://www.fishvenice.com/

Boat--Likely 32 foot Twin Vee catamaran. Can cruise at 30-32mph and has about a 12 foot beam. Possibly 36 foot Palmetto if he doesn't have the Twin Vee by then.

He will give us a nice rate. Rate is $1800 plus fuel. Fuel estimated cost is $400-$500. It is safe to say the trip will be $600 each for 4 people plus tip.
Game plan is to go after swordfish til about 1am. The swordfish bite is traditionally an early nighttime bite. At about 1am, we will go to the tuna grounds for nighttime YFT fishing. Hopefully, we will also target morning dorado and wahoo before going back in.

Captain Eddie is a great captain and I am a returning customer.
I want to originally limit this trip to 4 people, as I would like everyone to have a lot of fishing time and space. We can perhaps increase the trip to 6 people, but I want it understood my plan is not to fill the boat with 6 people at this time. I am committing myself plus one space, so 2 will be available.

We can see how the YFT and Swordie bites heat up over the next 6 weeks and discuss with Capt Eddie on what to primarly target. I would like to spend part of the night fishing for swords unless the sword bite is disappointing like the lump was this year. I appreciate all the tips from Jared and Capt Mike. They know a lot more than me. Good luck Capt Mike and post up after the catch. We currently have 4. Anyone else would be a reserve or added by increasing the number of anglers. I will surely post if my 2nd spot needs filled. __________________ "What an Idiot!! 'Ahhh, I'm hang gliding. Honey take a good picture. I'm dead,' " Will Farrell
