I knew there was No way we would catch in the area we found them 2 days ago.
Conditions would be crap so I opted to take a ride. Naturally conditions were horrible there also, No breeze & No current, had to power drift all day working a bunch of pieces.
We had short action, a bunch of decent sized keepers but it was not easy at all. Lost a lot of rigs. Catskill John landed 3 beauties including a new Monthly pool leader at 4 pounds 15 ounces. Raymond and several others had two nice fish and so on.
Just a quick story to show the kind of customers I carry and why I love them and what I do....
Last Monday, Henry a customer for 22 years lost his very expensive set up over the side. The Man was so upset as it was his favorite bass rod in the fall.....on Thursday, Mustachio Richie another long time customer caught the Rod, attached to it were two nice Lobsters.
After making sure the Rod was the correct one, I asked Richie this morning if he would be willing to return the Rod to another Fishermen Brother. There was No question, no but what, the Man handed me the rod like a gentleman and smiled. Made my heart feel good, gave Richie a couple trips on me to say Thank you for doing the right thing without even thinking about it. That my friends is a true Sportsman and an awesome American!
Love ya Rich, good Karma coming your way.....

Morning bite started right away today....
Had to work a piece of bottom landing some quality Fluke. Several fish in the 3-4 pound range with Arnaldo landing the pool fish at 4 pounds 5 onces.
Got about an hour out of it then like someone turned off the lights, the bite died. Searched several area's only to find a few shorts and an odd keeper. Pretty good swell out there all day I'm sure didn't help.
Sailing 7:30am-2:30pm everyday. Open Boat, No Reservations just come on down. Fare is $90, Rod Rentals $10.
See you in the AM,

Very good fishing day for our Western Specialty Charter today...
With just a handful of the crew showing up we checked out a couple area's that haven't been hit in a while. Found some beauties from 3 to 7 pounds with a nice catch of Sea Bass in the mix.
Pat (the Superintendent) of the company lead the way and put on a clinic for the group landing 7 keeper fluke along with a load of shorts. His son also had two very nice fish and good short action all day. Everyone went home with dinner. Bait, gulp & Bucktails all worked. Back at it in the AM.

Today, with the exception of the heat was a pleasure to be in the Ocean without getting a Butt kicking!
Arrived at the area where I wanted to start fishing to find No Current, No Drift....Ended up working the throttles all day to put a catch together. We'd find a little knuckle of fish, hit it a couple times then move on to the next spot.
Several customers did well, Catskill John, Anthony Barker, Dave B. couple others had their three and then some. Many guys with two nice fish around the boat. Couple fish over 4 pounds including this months new pool leader at 4 pound 7 ounces.
Steve Kerri had last months winner at 5 pounds 7 ounces. August & Sept. should be good fishing as everything starts to move out of the inland waters. Been a tough couple months but I think there is light at the end of the tunnel, finally!!
WE ARE NOT AVAILABLE THIS SATURDAY.....other than that, we are,
