Written by Dan Sandorff   
Tuesday, 30 June 2009

 

The Potential New Jersey State Record Thresher Shark came to the dock at Arnolds Brielle Yacht club for official weigh in Saturday 6-27-2009.  The mammoth 683 lb Thrasher was caught on the charter boat Kristin Marie with Captain Jeff Maritz of Point Pleasant at the helm.  This was a Dan Sandorff Charter with friends all residents of Warren County. The fish was boated by angler Benn Fogelberg of Washington N.J. After a wonderful day with many large blue sharks and one Mako, although not large enough to qualify for the tournament which they had entered it was 5:00 time to go. Then a run off Benn geared up with Gimble and harness, not knowing what awaited him. An hour and 45 min. later when the battle was over, everyone on board was overwhelmed with the sheer size of this Thresher.  Next to get it aboard, difficult even with a transom door, much howling yelling, ropes gaffs etc. Trimming the dorsal finally allowed it to fit...

NJ Fishing - Week of June 20th - 27th

The right place at the right time. Captain Jerry aboard Fish Monger charters from Brielle continues to find trophy bass at twighlight. The last week has proven to be “unforgettable top water action” for the crew and its patrons. Captain Jerry has been putting his charters on some of the best bass action New Jersey has to offer. The crew has been nailing 20 to 40lb class stripers on bunker and the occasional top water assaults with plugs, poppers and metals. The Fish Monger hit limits this week and released fish up to 38lbs.Captain Jerry continues to spoil his charters making 40lb trophies look easy.

 Capt. Carl aboard Wet Dreams charters from Coves Marina, Highlands had the pleasure of having the Boiardi Family on board  to celebrate Robert Boiardi Jr's 7th birthday. The girls out fished the boys right away with Wendy (mom) and daughter Alexandra with fish on, putting dad Robert and birthday boy Robert Jr. in the rear view mirror,  Robert Jr. came alive fighting fish after fish and the brother and sister went head to head in a fierce competition.  In the end, Robert Jr counted over 20 fish and Alexandra kept it close with around 19 fluke. Mom and Dad took a back seat and enjoyed every minute watching the two siblings experience what fishing is all about... Captain Carl even had a birthday cake waiting at the dock in a cooler for seven-year-old Rob Jr. Captain Carl runs a private charter and has some great summer rates for the whole family, check him out on the web at www.wetdreamssportfishing.com

Barnegat Light Captain Catches 50# Striper
Written by Bob Maehrlein

photo.jpg When Captain Mike Platti of Little Egg Harbor arrived at the dock on the morning of June 10th he had one thing on his mind - fluke. Because of his reputation as an excellent captain on his own boat “Reel Time”, and also as a mate on some of the more popular fishing boats in the area, Mike had just been hired to pilot the newest party boat in Barnegat Light on Long Beach Island. Aptly named “Islander” , Capt. Mike was anxious to take her out on the scheduled 8:00 am open boat trip and put his fares on some fat summer flounder. Unfortunately, the boat is so new to the area they didn’t even have a sign yet to announce that they were available to sail for fluke that morning. Hence, they didn’t get a large enough turnout to leave the dock.

Somewhat dejectedly, Mike and "Islander" first mate, Dennis, decided to get some breakfast. Not wanting the day to be a total loss, the crew chose to spend the day scouting some fluke holding spots. Captain Mike told me, “We decided to take the boat and go north for some fluke, and see how strong life was tight to the beach.”

40 lb Striper  The time of year when we can expect anything from a record bass to an 8ft Thresher shark in the Raritan Bay. Schools of bunker, herring, spearing and smaller baitfish are attracting just that. Ocean temperatures are just about right for any species to make an appearance.

Captain Ron’s Fisherman had more shorts than keepers this weekend, but most anglers went home with a few filets for the dinner table and happy to play catch and release with plenty of flounder action. You can still catch Captain Ron in search of monster bass during the week so get out there.
