Fishing Reports 2008

May 6, 2008

Today's night striped bass trip was for Duo Plumbing and Star Mechanical. First annual 2008 striped bass trip. First stop netting the bunker, once the live well was filled we headed over to our spot. In about 20 minutes after chunking, the bass started to come with a vengeance, we could not get the lines in the water fast enough. All the fish was laying right in the stern of the boat in our chum slick for every casts of the line we had fish on. All the guys had no problem making their limit. And then playing catch and release with those fish. There was many missed fish that night also. For some of those guys it was their first time bass fishing they did an awesome job.

Today's striped bass trip was for Rob, Rob and Joe. Started out netting bunker in the morning once we loaded up we headed out. It was a real crappy morning with a hard East wind and outgoing current made laying conditions pretty horrible. Once the live bait hit the water it didn't seem to matter, once again fresh-baits was the meal ticket. Despite those conditions the fish was having a field day. With all anglers limiting out within the first hour. Then we played catch and release for awhile. We moved around in search a bigger fish and all we found after that was bluefish which also was a lot of fun.

Today's striped bass trip was for Lou and Ken. The morning started out good with netting fresh bunker. We started fishing around 6:30 a.m. as soon as the bunker hit the water the bluefish started, after an hour we hooked up with our first striped bass. She weighed about 20 pounds. Now the bluefish is getting more intense we hung around for a little while longer and the same results more bluefish. We took a little move that also produce bluefish, after a half-hour or so we had another striped bass which weighed in about 18 pounds. This trip wasn't like the Thursday night trip which was completely opposite of this trip which only produced a few bluefish and all bass.

Today's night trip for striped bass was for Rob rob Jonathan and Ann. We netted some fresh bunker and we headed out to our spot. Once the bait hit the water we had a few bluefish, once the tide switched around 5:30 p.m. all hell broke loose. We had the striped bass in our chum slick for a solid hour. With everybody limiting out. My son also was on the trip and was able to cash in on the action, with landing two fish around 18 pounds. All fish ranged from keepers to 20 pounds.

Today's flounder trip was for John and his son and his crew. With a easterly winds blowing around 20 kn and outgoing water it made conditions real crappy. John son who is four years old, broke his cherry for the first time with his flounder. That day the the customers only landed nine flounders. The only good part that came out of it that day was John son got the experience of fishing with the guys. And breaking his cherry with his father.

Today's trip was for my brother Jeff and my two nephews. It was perfect conditions but the fishing wasn't so perfect. With my two nephews catching a total of 15 flounders between them. We did have a great time and for them that was enough fish; they couldn't wait to get home and fry up the fish.

Today's open boat trip was for George Jimmy and John. With George and Jimmy catching their limit, and John just shy of his limit. Today's trip fishing was definitely slower than the previous trips.
