A BIG THANKS FROM THE FISHING COMMUNITY. Have watched a number of your videos and the channel is definitely growing on me. This video presents the reality of commercial tuna fishing with realistic numbers (real actual numbers) presented to the community or those considering trying commercial tuna fishing. The breakdown of what the expenses of a sale that get charged against the "The Gross Sale" to arrive at the "Net Sale Received" (The Check). Then the breakdown of "How the Check" gets split appropriately to the Boat, Crew & Captain.
That's about as fair as you can be plus the crew has to take into consideration that they are getting paid to do something most people have to pay to do as always another awesome video
To be truly fair there should be a better breakup the remaining 50% since the owners are the only ones with equity, transfer capacity, and only owners benefit from the eventual sale of the boat. The first 50% to the boat (but in truth, to the owners pockets) and the remaining 50% should strictly be non-ownership or equitable partner only. Greedy captains will never do it, but that is truly fair. Considering you take expenses from the top, the boat TRIP COSTS are covered and the other 50% MORE THAN COVERS routine maintenance.
@@saltwaterfishinguniversity Passionate about people being paid fairly for the extreme amount of work they put in with little to no appreciation OTHER than their pay? Yeah, I guess you could say I am. Too bad you guys aren't. But please, by all means, continue putting up content about YOUR exploits and YOUR success and how much money YOU make.
They are being paid fairly. The crew doesn’t pay for the gas, upkeep, the monthly boat payments, scheduling etc. The boat could sink tonight and the crew can literally jump to a new ship without worrying about it. If they don’t like it, they can hustle and get their own boat and crew. Or better yet, how about you put your money where your mouth is and right this wrong? Exactly. Shut up. The crew seems happy. Keep your commie bs yourself unless you’re willing to do the work.
Def nice to offset the expenses...that price per pound was actually better than I thought it would be. From my understanding, boats are not getting close to that right now in the Northeast.
Yep, which is why watching the show right now is so deceiving. Viewers actually believe these fish are $20 a pound when in reality you're likely half that.
Primo very high quality to the right market they can pull way more, but this wasn’t that. They even mentioned that the Japanese pay way more for fish but you can’t do that right now.
Yes, the whole show is scripted & designed to create "drama" for the TV audience. (See Your Saltwater Guide interview of Paul Herbert of Wicked Pissah). Prices "announced" are way too high for reality in the actual tuna sale market for other fisherman. $12/lbs was a pretty fair price.
About that Clown, but 3 of us were not getting paid, we were just learning the ropes really. Next January we'll be approaching it with the goal to truly be a profitable business.
@@Pitoling186 Let's make it happen in January, you can join us. Seriously. Assuming you can make it to NC, you're welcome on the boat. You can always email us at speechlesssportfishing@gmail.com
@@saltwaterfishinguniversity you also gotta remember these guys are on the water all year around doing the different seasons and species and they also inbetween do charters
@@saltwaterfishinguniversity I think Kevin is suggesting you abandon your passion, sell all of your fishing equipment, and never look at the ocean again! -Ignore these people. As long as you're following guidelines, paying taxes, and enjoying yourself I wish you good luck with your season(s)! May your rods be tight, lines never snap, and the cooler stay full. hahaha
That is why the gov't agencies and Regional Fishery Agencies set "Catch Quotas" for Bluefin. The guy's commercial fishing can only catch tuna within the quota allocation allowed. Then Season Over!
You guys are awesome. Love what your doing! It would be cool to hook up with you one day down the road. Capt. Bill from the Robin Michele slip D-18 @ Manasquan River Club Brick NJ. Tight lines brothers!

Really appreciate that bud. That’s exactly what we’re trying to do.
Love it. Excited to join you on June 3rd!
Yep, can't wait to see you then!!
That's about as fair as you can be plus the crew has to take into consideration that they are getting paid to do something most people have to pay to do as always another awesome video
Appreciate you saying that bud, we certainly want to keep it fair and build long term relationships with those that fish with us-- crew and customers!

Pretty passionate about this John 👍

Have to look you guys up.
Loved the videos y’all post
Appreciate that man!

so why the internet says that bluefin can worth 500K or 700K if at the end it's only 6K !! ... 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Yeah I tought the same with two fishes I was thinking in a range of 450-700k
Primo very high quality to the right market they can pull way more, but this wasn’t that. They even mentioned that the Japanese pay way more for fish but you can’t do that right now.
That's in Japan at the right time of season
😮😮😮
How can i find dealer's to sell a fish like that to..
You may want to ask the local seafood shops Donavan. They'll know.
Fuel kills everything. Why when I had my boat that I prayed to every God for the fish to be close
😆, good one T K!
THANK U FOR TELLING THE TRUTH U R GOD
We try bud!
I was watching a fishing show in discovery channel, and they were getting 21 dollars a pound for their tuna. Am I missing something there ?
Yes, the whole show is scripted & designed to create "drama" for the TV audience. (See Your Saltwater Guide interview of Paul Herbert of Wicked Pissah).
Prices "announced" are way too high for reality in the actual tuna sale market for other fisherman. $12/lbs was a pretty fair price.
So everyone got 2250÷ 4? Bout 550 each for 3 days

@@saltwaterfishinguniversity cool, wish you the best luck ..will be following your journey and dreaming of my 1st bluefin.

Very good video though and tbh anyone can use the same logic for any business
Bluefin tuna are endangered and vulnerable
What are you suggesting Kevin?

Kevin voted for Biden 🤣
