Wednesday brought Charlie and Sarah back for another go in the briny. The winds were down a little from yesterday but the waves were bigger. We started with bass and then moved on to more bass and then we found a lot of bass. More doubles than singles and no bluefish which I thought was […]

Yesterday Bill brought Jack and Adam out for their first chance at albies. Unfortunately the albies had other plans. We put on over 50 miles and the boys managed a bonito and a fluke. Both their firsts but not what we wanted. These guys cast all day and these were the only fish that we […]

Today I was able to spend the morning with longtime friend and client Dr. Jeff. We left the dock in less than favorable conditions. Our first stop and Jeff’s first cast produced a feisty bass. Unfortunately The tide was against a stiff breeze so we couldn’t stay there comfortably. A short time later the bonito […]

Todays plan was to get Paul and Mike their first boat caught bonito. We started out with a bunch of bluefish in the boat so the guys could at least have some fish before the search began. Today the bonito found us and we had four in the boat by the end of our first […]

We have been concentrating on bonito for the past few days when we could get out. One day they are around in decent numbers and the next day they are being difficult. We were out this morning and just before the tide changed we had a half dozen pods running around. I hooked one on […]
