Fished on Fins open boat trip last night (10/29) with Greg V and four other guys. 4:30 PM to 9:30PM. Not sure where the Small Craft Adv. came from? Beautiful night on the water. Yes, Ron & Frank left Gale at the dock! (Long Story)
Started out clamming, with Greg having the hot hand. I think he may have had 4 keepers before I put one in the boat. The clam bite died right around dark but we were called in to a semi hot bite at the Sandy Hook Rip. The traffic was horrible so Frank decided to move out a little. I believe we put four or five more (bigger) fish into the boat using eels. Nothing real big, largest fish maybe 34". Nothing for Ron on eels.
Finished the night with a boat limit & a couple new friends. Thanks Capt Frank & Jerry. Can't wait for our Thanksgiving AM Tog trip.
Just before we left the marina I ran into an old friend who told me the bay was full of bluefish all along the beach, from Leonardo light house to Atl Highlands. Didn't make a difference what you threw at them you could catch all you wanted. He said he caught & released about 25 then got tired & quite. Sure enough, as we were leaving the marina, I could see birds working all along the beach. I guess they are feeding heavy before they run south? I hope they stay in the bay because I haven't been bothered by b a bluefish on the last 3 Striper trips. Now that is a good thing!
