Weds 8/13 Good action in the AM but more keepers in the PM

    We ran our half day trips today and stayed more local, and had decent action but not as many keeper fluke as we like. Had a fair amount of customers as the probably were worried about the weather that did not come until well after we got in on the second trip. On the afternoon trip we had half as many customers and despite the south winds that kicked up we put a nice catch of keeper fluke together with Artie getting his limit of keeper and another guy took his limit our of the four keepers he caught. A few other keeper fluke around the boat but not as much action as the morning trip. Doing our 6 hr trip tomorrow leaving @ 8 to 2. Thanks for looking in and here are some pics. 

 

Tues 8/12 Very good action

     We went down to where we ended up yesterday and caught fish right away but also  had quite quite a  few hang ups in the rocks the first drift. Stiffer rods help in getting out of the rocks, and keeping the sinker a little off the bottom also helps. Very good action all day but mostly short fluke and sea bass along with skates until the drift picked up. We ended up with a decent amount of keeper fluke and sea bass with Rick taking the pool, with one of his two keepers, and now leading the monthly pool with his 5.72 lb beauty. Back at it tomorrow but on the half day schedule and will probably work the more local grounds,  that also produce fish when conditions are right. Thanks for looking in and here are some pics.

 

 

Sun/ Mon 8/10 & 11 Get down early on weekends

     We had a great turnout on Sunday morning but had to leave a few at the dock as we could not get them together. That being said, if you are coming with a few friends or family, get down early, especially on weekend mornings. Despite the big group we had a decent morning on Sunday, picking at short fluke and other fish, and as many keepers fluke as the all day boats caught that day, including one limit. It can be tough to catch fish with the boat traffic and lack of drift. On the afternoon trip the wind kicked up, but we pick some fish but not enough keeper fluke. Today we did not have a drift most of the day, but when we did and caught a few,  the boats came around. Bob W took the pool today with one just shy of 5 lbs. Hope we have better conditions tomorrow and have a decent drift. Thanks for looking in and here are some pics. 

 

 

Fri/ Sat 8/8 & 9 Local had to work

   Between the roll in the ocean and shorter trip schedule we had to stay a little more local but still caught fish but not as many as we would like. A lot of rod rentals also help made the decision of not fishing the sticky bottom, where people get stuck and lose rigs. With that being said we did have short fluke  action along with the croakers, skates, dogfish sharks and also did put a few keeper fluke in the boat on all the trips. Back at it this morning running our 2 half day trips @ 8 AM and again @ 1:30 PM. Please give yourself enough time to come down and park  and don't call and say can I wait 10 minutes as the trip is short enough. And if you are coming with a small group, come early so we can get you together. Thanks for looking in and here are pics of some of the keepers.
