8/28 Not a Wasted Day
« on: August 29, 2013, 11:55:04 AM »
In spite of the threat of afternoon rain and storms I decided to take a run out with Thom, his son Dan, and Helmut. The plan was to put Danny on action of any kind before school starts. Watching the bluefish reports I decided that might be the best bet for the young one. We headed out to Augie's/Klondike area where I had them last trip.... Nada. Pushed forward to the Mud Buoy area and marked fish. Tried jiggin with no luck. One Danny pulls up a nice short fluke on an Ava jig and we move over the fluke. We caught a bunch of shorts and really nice sea bass there (back to swim) and things dies out.

Made a jog over to the rattlesnake area and had a really good pick of shorts and sea bass again. Looking at the radar around noon I decided it would be safer to be close to our home port and made the run to the SGR. We finished of the day there with more of the same action. On the way there we did notice some bunker being harasses and I saw a big splash. Played out a mackeral on a shark rig and drifted with the bunker for a while but, no taker.

We ended the day with only one keep fluke but, many shorts and some quality sea bass (IF only they were in season  rgmn).

I was in the SGR area yesterday as well. It was a slow bite drift was almost nonexistent. I heard later that under those pods of bunker where mahi mixed in.

Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.
