Captain and Owner of Fishing Vessel Posts TikToks of Crazy Monster Tunas She and Her All-Female Crew Catches

Fishing tuna isn't for the faint of heart. And for too long it's been a male dominated field. But FV No Limits has been changing that. The female captain Michelle Cicale loves fishing so much that she eventually ended up buying her own fishing boat. She decided to make it a point to have an all female crew. She told the radio that it's not easy to find women as passionate about fishing as she is, but she is going to and then they will start to inspire other women to join the business. 

Fishing tuna isn't like going fish down the creek with gramps. You're not catching little guppies here. FV No Limits catches 600+Lbs bluefin and yellowfin tuna. Sometimes the captain is alone and she still is somehow miraculously able to pull a fish that heavy onto her boat all by herself. Most people don't even see men doing that alone. Cicale posts her adventures—solo and with her all-female crew—catching these monster-sized fish. I mean, some of these fish truly look like dinosaurs.

They're still relatively new to the Gen-Z clock app TikTok, but already get thousands of views on their videos. One video of the two fisher(wo)men catching a gnarly tuna with the waves throwing them about has almost reached 100k views. They're based in Seabrook, NH and get many of their catches off of Hampton Beach. 

Viewers are amazed by their capabilities, especially women, proving the team is already reaching their goal of inspiring more women to fish. “Ummmmm. That’s badass!!!! Truly! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️,” one female commenter said. Another woman said, “Omg can I come with!! I got muscles!! No idea what I’m doing but this looks so awesome!!” Many are asking why they aren't on the popular fishing show Wicked Tuna, to which the respond agreeing.
