Title: LBI- Reel Time Sportfishing 6/21
Post by: hareball on June 21, 2008, 07:43:43 PM
Another early start meeting up at the boat at 3:30am. On board was Capt. Mike, Capt. John, Joe, and myself. It was this day last year Capt. Mike caught a nice striper in front of the red tower so with high hopes and seas as flat as glass we gave it a shot. Bunker were in low numbers and on the bottom, we snagged a few but no Bass to tempt so we headed out for some Fluke. Made a few drifts with a fleet of boats, still some decent size Sea Bass on structure but the Fluke in 80' of water were far and few between. Better luck next week!

On a side note Capt. John went out with a friend of his up around the Point Pleasant area last night and both brought in 4 striper all over 40 pounds. Capt. John caught his best yet a 50 pounder!!! TT^

Will do!

I saw the pics on his camera today. I'll post them up as soon as he sends them. Last time we waited on pics from him it took awhile but i'm sure these pics will motivate him TT^

I think the total weight of thier 4 fish was 180 pounds.

Awesome! t^  That second pic is great!  He's got that big (50 lb.) smile and he looks he's still fighting that fish in the boat! ;D

For some reason I thought he had taken those fish from the beach. 5hrug  Doesn't matter though.  A 50 lber is a 50 lber no matter where you catch it! ;)

Congrats! chrz

Your thoughts were in line for Capt. Johnny's norm...When it comes to Striper he does 99% of his fishing from the suds  TT^
