Hoochie-Coochie Tuna Fire Tail! - Paperback

by Judy Helmey (Author)

Short stories about sunken ships, mermaids, Al Capone, both parent's funerals, Ours and their submarines, fishing, my father's 8 wives, my 6 stepmothers, murder, lies told, mayhem, cold cases, my father's crazy life before me, life on Wilmington Island with me, and ours together! My father's very interesting life offered me plenty of things to write about! It's best described as a daughter's greatest tale!

What has happened since I published My Father the Sea and Me in 1992. We officially came up with "Kicking Fish Tails Since 1956!" And then I had it trademarked! Everyone always asks, "Why 1956?" That is the year that I officially started fishing with my father on his big wooden boat. After my mother died in a car accident in 1957 my father's wooden boat became officially Captain Helmey's Day Care on the sea for me! My father's wooden boat was 41 feet Long, it had a big stateroom, two heads with showers, a dining room, big galley, a big dash at the helm where I could fit just nicely, and basically lots of places to roam. I was a happy camper!
