Some of the smaller rigs in the fleet, not all of them were the big guys who had the nets. These small seiners played a huge roll in the fleet . Thank you to Kevin Madruga for sharing these photos.

I’m sorry to inform you of the passing of another great fisherman . Jimmy Flud died a few days ago on August 18th when he was 71.  He loved tuna fishing and spent 20 plus years on the ocean. Born and raised in Point Loma . His family says his best years were spent aboard the Raffaello as Navigator. I’ve attached a memory of life invitation  from his family for any of his friends or ex shipmates. RIP
