Friday 5/17 we had Dan English's Charter for the stripes. Left before 6am and went and got our bait. Headed to where we have been catching and had a fish instantly but the hooked turned into the bunker. Then no bites at all for a while! Capt Bobby gave me a heads up of some bait in the area. Threw the net and loaded back up around 2pm. Told the guys to get their sleeping bags and be ready for a long day. Finally some fish were around. Bite after bite and run off after run off, blow ups up top too. But the fish just would not eat the damn bunker. Had something BIG on at one point where we drove 10knots to chase it and almost had it, but ended up busting off. Video on Facebook. Heard of some big bfts in the area but my guess, thresher. Peeled 25lbs of drag like it was wide open. Fun though. Anyway, a couple of blues and bluefish bites along with a ton of bass bites and all. Managed 4 bass out of somewhere around 30-40 and a couple blues. Solid action in the afternoon. Could not take the guys home. Have em a 12 hour day. And it paid off after a VERY slow morning.
Thanks Guys
Capt Kris
