We went out with a decent group of mostly regulars but had to battle not the greatest of conditions. Did a lot of power drifting to hold an edge, not to give it a drift. A handful of keepers and and nice batch of shorts on the first drift t start the day off. Travis had his limit by 10:15 and went on to boat another keeper. His buddy John took the pool honors, as Tim and another got 2k with a other single keepers around the boat along with the shorts, not a lot of action, but overall a great first early season trip. Back at it tomorrow, which by the way looks very nice, and every day, but check out our schedule. 8 AM - 2 on M, T, Thurs and Fri. 2 half day trips on Weds and weekends (Sat & Sun), 8 AM - 12:30 and again 1:30 - 6 PM. Thanks for looking in, here are some pics of some of the keepers, and hope to see you on the boat.

Mon/Tues 4/27 & 28 From 0 to semi Hero
On Monday, a beautiful day on the water, we went from Sea Bright to round shoals Staten Island, river to back bay, and all for nothing with only a handful of fishermen. Today we started in the river and than took a long ride but it paid off as Jamie led the pack with 2 overs, two keepers and the pool. A couple other keepers, overs and a short, but it was action. Thanks for looking in and here are some pics. Don't forget our half day special on Friday, 7:30 to 12 and switching to Fluke on Monday, 5/4 leaving @ 8 AM to 2.

Thurs 4/23 Nice day but had to work at it
Went out on a nice day and did a lot of running around with barely any readings on the fish finder as did the other boats. The guys fished hard and we finally put a few fish in the boat as we tried to get away from the pack. Back at it tomorrow and hope for the best. Russ took the pool with a 39" slob. Thanks for looking in and here are some pics.
