Weekend report 10/5 & 6 Still good fishing - not sailing tomorrow Monday 10/7

     We continue to have good fishing, lots of action, although not as many keepers as we would like. Literally, hundreds of short sea bass, some porgies, few Short black fish, blues (big snappers), blow fish,and sometimes a trigger fish, as Krissy took the pool today with one, that just beat out some big sea bass and a couple of big porgies.  Thanks for looking in ,will post pics later. 

Friday 10/4 Good fishing & what's this

     The morning did not start out like I expected as we went to where we had good porgy fishing yesterday, but it was no good even after a few drops. Went to where we used to catch them this time of year but no good as the dog fish, spiny and smooth took over. However Dalton  did catch a nice 23" fluke, probably his biggest of the year, oh well, sorry Dalt. Finally found an area where we had good action catching sea bass and some porgies, unfortunately mostly shorts and some keepers, but everyone had lots of fun catching double headers at times. Thanks for looking in and hope to see you on the boat. Here are some pics. 

Thurs 10 /3 Finally out - beginners luck

     We finally made it out after a week plus more of bad winds out of the east making it rough, but there was still a swell left over but not rough. Went to where the porgies have been caught and got a good shot at them but most were small, only a few keepers. Shifted around and got a shot of sea bass but again mostly shorts with a few keepers mixed in. Ventured out to another area and found one drop with a decent shot of sea bass that we could keep and of course shorts in the mix. Young Peter, first time on a party boat, took the pool honors with one of his sea bass. Everyone caught fish and most went home with a dinner or two. Back at it tomorrow and every day the weather is nice, so hope to see you on the boat. Now sailing one trip only from 8 AM to 2 PM. Thanks for looking  in and here are some pics.

 

Tues 10/1 Not going out until Thurs 10/3

     We shaped up this morning but only a few showed up, which was probably a good thing as the winds kicked up again and it would not have been nice. Therefore we are NOT going out tomorrow, Wed,  but will try again on Thurs.  We are now on a one trip schedule from 8 AM till 2 PM. Thanks for looking in.

Not sailing until at least Tues 10/1

    Here we  go again with the easterly winds and rough seas, and the rain does not help. Not going to be nice on the ocean the next few days so we will not be going out until Tues or Weds. Not much in the bay so we can't get away with fishing there. Sorry and thanks for looking in.

Sat 9/28 Update and not sailing this afternoon

   Tues and Weds were not good as we only caught short fluke and other fish, blues, dogfish small sea bass and robins. Weds was the last day to keep fluke and we did not sail Thurs or Fri. We shaped up this morning but not enough showed up but it would have not been nice anyway with the rain and east winds to 25 mph. Therefore we are cancelling this afternoon trip an see what tomorrow brings. Thanks for looking in.

Sun/Mon 9/22& 23 Ed the man and change of plan

     Sunday was a repeat of Saturday with only a pick of shorts and other fish in the morning but we did manage a couple of nice keeper fluke in the afternoon with Dave getting the first keeper fluke and  Joe getting one to take him out of the pool by a few ounces. Today we had a couple of drifts with nothing, because of the swell but finally found a few shorts, sea robins, and sea bass that we can not keep yet. Tried a few other areas and landed on some beauties. Teacher Ed Christensen, as we call him, knocked off a 6 3/4 lber, our biggest of the season, and we picked a few more nice keeper fluke. On the afternoon trip, Ed did it again with a 5.2 lb beauty to take the pool again, he better play the lottery tonight. We will ONLY sail the morning trip tomorrow with the Easterly winds against the tide in the afternoon and will do a special 6 hour trip on Weds 9/25 for the last day of fluke from 8 AM to 2 PM, $75 pp. Not sailing Thurs or Friday but half day, last half day trips, on this weekend for porgies. Here are some pics, today first, and thanks for looking in.

Sat 9/21 Still a few here and pic of the sub

       We did not sail the last two days with the forecast that was wrong but got out this morning and will sail the next few. Picked at short fluke and black sea bass that we can not keep, couple of small blues, but the weather was nice. On the afternoon trip we got a couple of nice keeper fluke with Dave taking the pool with a 5.2 lber beating out  4.1 lber. Picked at  shorts and the usual other fish. Back at it tomorrow and the rest of the week with Weds being the last day for fluke. Not sailing Thurs and Fri and will sail again on Sat and Sun for our last half day trips for porgies, before switching to one morning trip only. Thanks for looking in and here are couple of pics. 

Weds 9/18 The best part of today - not sailing until Sat 9/21

     We barely made it out this morning with just enough and the fishing was not good, picked at some shorts here and there. Not terrible weather but the ocean was still riled up. Best part of this morning was we got to see the USS New Jersey Submarine leave the port of Earl ammunition pier. Therefore we WILL NOT be sailing until Sat 9/21 and hope conditions change. Thanks for looking in and see you soon on the dock. Any reservation on coming down just give me a  call.

Mon Tues 915 & 16 Getting tougher but ... Sailing Weds AM only

     With the E and NE winds there is still a  big roll on the ocean and there is not much left in the calmer waters. However, today in the roll Rick boated a beauty @ 6 lbs. Few other keepers along with some short fluke,  but not good. Same thing yesterday only a couple of keeper fluke and some shorts along with the other fish. We will try to go out tomorrow morning but not the afternoon. Probably the same on Thursday and will see what Friday brings if the weatherman can get it right. Maybe its me but seems they are wrong more than right so I cant figure a schedule. Call me if you are not sure. Thanks for looking in and here are a few pics.
