Headed Out with a Bunch Of the Usual Suspects... Bob Bates, U.P Paulie, Stellios, Coolhand Fluke Al, Pat and Big Don had the boat Chartered for the big opener!
Headed Up north were the bite was great before the blow... Water was filthy dirty and the was a slight swell left over from the blow...
Got anchored and had absolutely no life... Made A few moves around the Elberon and L.b. with no better results... Not even scratches we only snagged a couple of shorts and had acouple bites... Talked with others most with similar results...
Retreated with an empty box and took a Big steam back to the south and in deeper water...
Anchored up in 75 ft in much cleaner water.... Instant life... The bite began... and it seemed the afternoon was going to treat us better!
Picked away lots of shorts and nice size keepers... It wasnt the best bite but it was steady and the Blackfish started to add Up in the cooler until the Guys had the 6 man Limit
Congrats to Al breaking in his brand new Kevin Bogan rod with a Limit of tog...
Bob had some nice flurries of Tog... Way to go Don on the first double header of the season (pic attached)... Stelly has been spoiled by RI but recoverd to prevent hack status ... Up finished strong and Pat Dont Like pictures
Was pulling my hair out in the morning but in the end it turned out to be a great day!!! Tough bite but the guys fished hard all day to put a catch together!
Around 45 Keeper size fish for the day with everyone taking home their limit of blackfish!!! Had at least that many short as well!!!
Lots Of laughs, oh and food... Fun day
Thanks again guys!!!
