Had charlie and the eagles fishing club aboard today. The guys usually do the sebassing but they wanted to try and get in on the trophy liveline trip this year.
Broke the inlet and the bunker was back on the beach and gettiing worked. The drop n snag fishing was new to the guys so it took a little getting used to but after a few drifts we joined the insane fleet on the beach.
To be honest it was like warfare... fish were spraying but boats were throwing bunker snags and being tangled with other boats isn't so much fun. Did one drift caught one lost one and got the heck out of there.
Headed south and found a load of bunker getting worked with a more reasonable fleet working it right.
Had alot of bites runoffs etc. Boxed 5 more and lost broke off to many.
Bite slowed up...Was bummed out thought maybe we missed our good crack at them.
Got a call from Rayman Bnr (thanks again bro) who said they had some fish further south earlier... we weren't doing much so we went to take a look.
Got down there into loads of bunker... picked a couple more.. then looked to the south n all hell broke loose!!! Fish spraying all over us and only one boat. 3-5 on at a time... got 3 great cracks at them and the guys were whooped. Big fish was 41lbs and all the guys got their personal bests!!!
Boxed the rest of a limit and some bonus fish then played a little c&r.
Made a stop on some bottom on the way back... seabassing was still slow lots of little guys but the guys put 14 seabass in the box before the wind picked up and we headed for the dock!!!
So the guys got to experience a great day of livelining some trophy stripers! Another one to remember!
By days end the guys caught over 20+ stripers to 41lbs including everyone pb... keep alimit and 4 bonus fish c&r some more! The guys also boxed 14 seabass!!!
Thanks again guys!
