As we start our forty-fourth season with Bunny Clark Deep Sea Fishing, I look back at last season. It was such an exciting season in so many ways. I had the wind taken out of me when one of our best fishermen, David Burton (MA), had an accident that took him out of the fishing with only half the season gone. Pictured right, Dave can be seen holding his 20.5 pound halibut which he caught with me on an offshore trip last season. Since this fish was under the federal size limit to keep, a quick weight and a picture was taken before the fish was released back to the ocean alive. Dave has caught three halibut with me, four in his life. This is his smallest. He was our Fisherman of the Year in 2024. He only started fishing with me two years before that. In 2023, Dave caught a 77 pound halibut with me that we had to release because we already had a 149 pound halibut on the boat. You are only allowed one legal halibut per boat per trip, even if the trip is ten days long. The next year, he boated a 95.5 pound halibut, that he was able to keep as it was the first halibut in the boat that day. We caught another legal halibut later in the day on that trip In 2024, Dave caught sixteen trophy white hake, his top five weighing 31 pounds, 31 pounds, 34.5 pounds, 35 pounds and 36 pounds. The 36 pounder was the sixth largest hake caught that season and the largest hake that he has ever caught. Last season, it was almost as if the fish gods new that Dave couldn't fish. We did poorly on the big hake in the second half of the season last year. Last year he caught the largest haddock he has ever caught, a Maine state trophy of 7.1 pounds. He was high hook with the most legal fish that day. So much so, that I think if I had just counted his best hour of fishing that day, he still would have been high hook! The year that he was Fisherman of the Year he was high hook most frequently. He was on a roll that year. The only thing that held him back was one day when a compatriot of his talked him into using 150 pound test monofilament to catch more big pollock while also insuring that he wouldn't break any off that he hooked. It seemed like a great idea except that the heavy monofilment wasn't shy enough to attract pollock to his hooks in the first place. You can't land pollock if you can't bring them to your gear. He also caught his first Maine state trophy redfish with me. It weighed 2.25 pounds. At the time he caught it he thought I was joking when I told him his fish was a trophy. Most other boats, ones he frequented before starting with me, don't recognize big redfish as I do. This is probably because other states may not recognize big redfish. I recognize all special fish on my boats. And I have always recognized them. This because I feel it's an achievement where anglers should be highlighted as such. He also caught his largest cusk with me in 2024, his first Maine state trophy cusk weighing in at 12.5 pounds. I guess I'm assuming that it was his biggest cusk. I do know it was his first trophy. But, again, other boats don't recognize big cusk Iike I do. Dave has caught a lot of big haddock with me, many good sized pollock and just a lot of fish. I have a few top anglers who, when I have them on the boat, I feel that something good is going to happen. Dave is one of them. And I so appreciate it, having them fishing with me on the Bunny Clark. Special fish like Dave's are the kind of fish we like to see on caught on the Bunny Clark.
