That’s a wrap

Gail and I made an early trip out this past Sunday morning. We beat the sun and wind for a change. There were very few bass around but we did find a bunch of hickory shad and a few good sized bonito. With this weeks weather forecast we decided to call it a year. The […]

This morning the wind finally took a break so we could go for a boat ride. There were scattered fish in most places with a fleet of boats on them. We decided to look around a bit and came upon some huge splashes. I was thinking big albies or maybe some school bluefin. Wrong on […]

Slow start-Big finish

This morning brought Dr. Jeff up the always dangerous Rte.95 to spend the day on the briney. Despite a lousy weather forecast we headed out in search of the elusive striped bass. The first stop was like fishing in the desert so we moved on. The next stop produced a nice sized bluefish and we […]

We found albies that were hungry one day and wouldn’t touch anything the next few days. The bonito would eat when we found them. Bass and blues are around. We even caught […]

Gail and I left the dock at sunrise hoping to find some hardtails to play with. For some reason we got some to eat but we couldn’t keep them connected on flies and lures. After an hour with no activity we decided to call it a day. On the way back we found some birds […]

Today things lined up and Gail and I made it out to the briney. After doing a bit of traveling we found some bonito that were in the eating mood. We had some doubles and they kept us amused for a while. Then when they quieted down a few bluefish joined the party. Had some […]

Girls day out

Today was girls day thanks to nine year old Minny who brought her older sister Lainey and Dad out for the morning. The bonito were elsewhere so we decided to hit the porgy grounds. The porgy’s were hungry and the girls did well with them. They added a couple of sea bass and Minny capped […]
