Reel Class Friday 7/23 Half-Day Mixed Bag
« on: July 23, 2010, 08:10:28 PM »
Had George Bossow charter the boat along with his son Brad and his nephew Mark. The plan was to mix it up with fluke and also do some bottom fishing.

Broke the inlet just after 7 and found slick calm seas as we shot to the south to make the first drop targeting fluke initially. When we got to the piece we had no drift, so we power drifted over the piece only catching a few seabass.

We then made a move to the north to target seabass. First piece was picked over pretty good, but the second yielded a bunch of keepers and a load of shorts as well as a couple of nice ling, as well as a nice keeper fluke taken by George on a clam bait intended for seabass. The third piece was only OK as we picked a couple more nice keepers.

After roughly 2 hours of seabassing, we went back to fluking and found the bite to be extremely slow -- we were able to catch a few more keeper seabass but no more keeper fluke.

Called it a day at 12 with ~30 keeper seabass, 2 ling, and 1 19" fluke in the box. George was high hook, Mark had the hot hand with the bigger biscuits which was topped by a nice fish ~ 4#!! A productive morning trip to say the least!!   t^

No reports for us the next 8 or so days as we're headed down to the caribbean on a cruise to celebrate our anniversary  chrz
