Advice on M/V La Pesca

I am thinking in joining some folks on La Pesca from Dolphin Docks this Sat. Anyone can give some feedback.
Thank you

Slow boat + 24hr. trip= limited fishing. however longer trips do get in to the tuna

row row row your boat, gently out to sea..

uhhhhh it floats? nah i went on a 60hr and a 36hr withing a month of each other last year, it's a boat, but not much of a fishing boat. atleast from having been on DSH it seemed like they tried a lot harder, with chum and chunking etc. on the pesca its just like OK we made it out to boomvang see what you can do while we drink dr pepper! haha no they work hard and get fish, a 24hr is just like an extended 12hr, you will proly end up anchored on bakers all night....have fun, throw them red snappers back, and drink lots of booze to ease the diesel smeel;] well proly see you out there, im swinging a double back on the scat cat this weekend, 1 more week and im off the party boats for awhile. private boat heere i come!!
2 night of feeshing and we were the lucky ones to even have a yf, sometimes they are there sometimes not...i was reel sick so dont mind me haha and no my grandpa and i didnt match
i hooked it up for him, and was REAL happy to see him catch his first yeller, he still cant stop telling his friends. after thaat i went back to my bunk and passed out, worst cold in a longgg time.

I will be on a 40 hour on the Dolphin soon. Hope we get into some tuna even though it's a slow boat. We should still have plenty of time.

i wouldnt say throwing your money away, just you wont get to keep the red snappers, but im sure if you fish hard youll manage a nice limit of beelines, maybe some AJ, grouper? and who knows its so hot outside right now maybe some dolphin will decide to show up!!

Rather keep the $$$ for a longer trip and my Chicken pass.

Ken is a good skipper. But I've noticed he seems to catch more BFT then Yellows on long range trips, while general fishing is usually great.

I prefer the 60 hour trips out of DD since their boats are slower. They will place you on fish if there is enough time for the boat to reach the fishing grounds.
