New Day Fisheries

New Day Fisheries - Line caught tuna in Port Townsend WA

A Family Tradition.....

Denny Kimmel as an 11 yr old deckhand became enthralled with trolling for Albacore Tuna with his father in 1947. They trolled for Albacore from Tasu Harbor, Canada to Guadalupe Island, Mexico. He loved the fact that troll fishing was done all by hook and line with no nets involved.

His dream of owning an albacore vessel was reached in 1977 when he built the 47' trolling vessel "New Day". His wife Gail, sons Steve and Scott, and daughter Wendy all helped out as deck hands in the ensuing years until they started their own families.

At age 19, Scott Kimmel took over the New Day Fisheries Corporation and began the purchasing and processing of seafood. His dream was to turn out the same home-canned albacore tuna product that his grandma Dee and mother Gail had been doing in jars for the last 57 years and he has succeeded.

Recently he has added dockside seafood sales of fresh fish, live crab and prawns.

By not using any nets we can guarantee that this method of catching is 100% dolphin safe.
