Trolling 5/22 Sandy Hook Channel.

[Still Running]

Got a late start today. Hit the water around 9:30 and get a call from Luna Sea 4. He told he had his limit and playing catch and release.   We didn’t have that kind of luck. Put out a 9er rig, a bunker spoon and a stretch 30. pulled it up and down with only one hit on the stretch. A 42”er in the box. Headed in around 3:30 called it a day.

Hi Rick, Too bad about the small 42" in the box. I feel bad for you.
 Just kidding,  Im surprised the trolling did not produce more. Get them next time.

Dennis, 20 was just a guess. The fish was kind of skinny.
