Title: 11/11/07 SeaHawk bottomfishing report
Post by: gottog on November 12, 2007, 12:09:53 PM
Headed out on the SeaHawk with a fairly light crowd, about 20 fares.

Took the ride out near the mud buoy and had a pick of fish with some good spurts of heavy action. Captain and crew worked very hard and getting it together nicely TT^

Fishing was decent. Everyone had their 1 fish tog limit and quite a few could have filled or came close to the upcoming 8 fish limit increase.

Nice sized porgies in the 2-lb class and some nice knucklehead seabass as well. Even a lone bluefish found it's way into someone's cooler.

Pool fish was a 5.5lb tog.  Some internet guy caught it t^

I busted off a real nice fish. Time to stop using the 3/0 hooks and go up a size or two. That and change frayed rigs bngh

Seemed everyone onboard had a good time and everyone left with a nice sack of fillets.

A few kids onboard did pretty well with one catching some nice seabass and tog, all on rental rods. Other pics are parts of individual catches.
