IBSP Fishing Report - Oct. 11 09

[ChrisL]

Got out to the park for a couple hours with the wife and dog yesterday afternoon.  Nice sunny beach day.
Got the end of the incoming tide into outgoing.  Water was a little cloudy.  Wind light and variable out of the west. 
We stopped for clams and the best we could do after multiple stops was a pint of fresh shucked clams and bag of mullet.  The lack of bait at the shops was a good indicator of what was to come.....the beach looked like the mall parking lot in December.
Soaked the clams and mullet on FF rigs and Hi-Los.   
Tally for the day was 1 strong willed skate and 1 feisty 9in fluke, both on clam.
Also threw an AVA 007 / teaser combo.  Had a few lite hits on that with no hookups.
Didn't see anyone else doing anything, although the report from the shops this morning says otherwise.

Nice effort Chris. Ya gotta love them B&T reports. 

[ChrisL]

I wouldn't necessarily believe the B&T reports, except B&Ns actually shows videos of the weigh-ins. It was maybe 4 or 5 fish in a whole day over 30 miles of sand, but it's something.

Good try!  The beaches were packed this weekend...thanks to Mr Christopher Columbus.

I kind a thought they would be.  I will be going on Wednesday with my Uncle once again.  I think I got him hooked, now its my turn to teach the old dog some new tricks...

[ChrisL]

I just might see you guys out there Wednesday

[ped579]

That would be great Chris.  He will be at the house by 5:30 even though sunrise is 7:06.  That's okay, I will have plenty of coffee ready.  It should be a nive long incoming tide this time.  Hope we have some white water this time, the stripers should be more active.

[ChrisL]

I'll do my best, but you know my track record with early mornings. 

[SurfJockey]

Good luck to you guys! 

[ped579]

That's fine Chris, I am sure if you go you will find us.  I just hope its not to cold out there.  I guess the pocket warmers will be in order.  Gloves defiantly...   To cold too soon, need a couple of these.
