Fish Monger Sat 12/12 Greg V. Birthday Blackfish Limit
« on: December 12, 2009, 09:17:36 PM »
Greg Vongas had the boat chartered for a Birthday Trip, Reel Ron, Joe Jig, Tony Triggs, Bob Bates and Stellios.

Headed out for a day Blackfishing...little windy and brisk in the am... Got setup and had a few keepers right away... then we waited a few minutes and picked a few more nice size fish and no shorts.

Had a pick and pluck bite pretty much all day... Few here few there but the were all nice quality fish from 3-7lbs so we stuck it out.

Fished 3 different rockpiles inshore... all about the same... They would bite a little then back off... Bite Greens , then whites then back to greens.
Had a nice flurry little after lunch time and again at the end of the day... Picked away until we had a boat limit+

Congrats to Greg Vongas who was the first to his birthday Limit... Reel Ron banged the first few ealry to show the boys they were there... Tony started out hot until the keep his head up incident... Joe was da closer... Bob Bates was under the weather but still managed to make the trip and a limit... Stelly redeemed himself late with his secret spray

By days end we boated around 55 Keeper Blackfish most being nice roasters in the 3- 7lb range ...everyone got to take home a legal limit... and we threw back a few keepers for another day.

Ps got to play with my new toy today... making life easier for Wayno and myself Pic attahed

Fun Day, Great Crew. Happy Birthday Greg!!!

Thanks Again fellas!!!

Thanks to Capts Jerry and Wayno and my fishing buddies for making today one of my best birthdays ever. Nice of the guys to let me limit first and get the $2 first fish over 20".  They must have been holding back early to give an old man a head start. Good thing Stelly didn't break out the secret spray until the afternoon

Nice catch guys. Belated happy birthday to you GregV.

That is a nice system you have Jerry. Looks like you can work it from the cockpit. Sweet.  t^

Looks like it worker real well for ya!  t^

Jerry,
Great catch like always, So is the double anchoring system hands free ???  Pretty spiffy  I have been kicking the idea around

Rich Pretty much hands free mate just unties the rope from 2 cleats in the cock pit... both ropes for each anchor run through sets of rollers so the rope has no chance to go in the water while letting it out.... Pot hauler mounted on the side of the house retrieves the rope (anchors) Back in... Popular setup in NY lobster style boats.

Nice catch guys. Belated happy birthday to you GregV.

Yes Capt Joe all from the cock pit.

Thanks for the words fellas!!!
