Captain Tom Depersia - "A Family of Fishermen"
Thank you for tuning into the SeaBros Fishing Podcast! On this episode, we had the pleasure of sitting down with a long time friend and charter fishing legend, Captain Tom Depersia.
Tom has been an avid fisherman, hunter, and outdoorsman his entire life. Our family has had the pleasure of knowing and fishing with Tom and the rest of the Depersias for several decades. Almost all of Tom's children and grandchildren are mates or captains on charter boats and commercial boats in our area. Tom has owned and operated Big Fish Charters in Green Harbor, Massachusetts for over 50 years, and in his career has landed thousands of bluefin tuna. Tom has served on the board of the Stellwagen Charter Boat Association and has represented charter boats in various regulatory initiatives for bluefin tuna and other species in our waters.
In this conversation we catch up on life with Tom. We discuss charter fishing, fishing together as families, his winters in Florida and tell a bunch of fish stories. Tom tells tales from the early days of hand-lining giant tuna, the development of trolling squid bars, and talks about what we are seeing now in our fishery. Tom also shares his opinion on a few recent restrictions put on fish throughout our area.
Tom has been in the game a long time is always a pleasure to talk to. He's a wealth of knowledge and he and his family have taught us a lot over the years.
We hope you enjoy this podcast as much as we did!
Stay Tight,
The Sears Brothers
