Capt. Bob Cook - "Tuna Pizza"

SeaBros Fishing Podcast - Fishing Stories, Tactics, and Interviews from Top Captains, Mates, and Outdoorsmen from Across the World

Thank you for tuning into the SeaBros Fishing Podcast!
On this episode we sit down and share fishing stories, some good laughs, and a ton of great knowledge with Captain Bob Cook of Fat Tuna Charters .
Bob has been fishing the Northeast waters for over 25 years and he has experience lobster fishing, gill netting, commercial sword fishing, and currently specializes in bluefin tuna fishing commercially and with charter clients. He is a very passionate and competitive fisherman which translates to him and his crew ranking amongst the top tuna fishermen in New England.
Over the past several years, Bob and his crew have been featured on National Geographic's Wicked Tuna, aboard their 40' Duffy Fat Tuna. Not only is Bob an established fisherman, he is also a successful entrepreneur. He currently owns a very popular pizza restaurant on the North Shore of Massachusetts (Little Italy in Beverly, MA) and he has several other "irons in the fire" in terms of business endeavors.
We really enjoyed this conversation with Bob. It was nice to talk tuna fishing on a cold winter's day. There is a lot of technical fishing info shared in this episode and we hope you enjoy listening as much as we did!
