--Submitted by Jeff Haley. Jeff Haley and his Haley cousins Jim Haley and his 3 boys - Matt, Paul and Patrick all 4 of Maryland - descendents of Jesse Haley - once Mayor of Sheridan MO - were on a recent "fishing trip" - thought it would be nice to share with residents of Sheridan.
Started up north thinking marlin & tuna, but after a few days of limited tuna action, the damm things were biting south of me about 20 miles, and after an hour of no bites and little sign of life I couldn't take it any more, so we started running....marked 2 places of tuna on the way and stopped but could not get a bite so we picked up and started running again.... in my mind I knew I was going to be late for the party.... this time of year usually the tuna bite is short and sweet, if at all .....got down to the pack of boats and set out and in 10 minutes hooked a single 40 lb yellowfin....happy days.....at least we weren't skunked....got going again and hooked a double header, than an single 50 lb fish, and then hooked a bigeye which Jeffrey Haley, from Missouri, boated after a half hour.....101 lbs to earn a citation on the first offshore fishing trip he has ever been on... then we boated several more tunas and a wahoo to end one of the Obsessions best late inning comebacks!
