Does anyone know the dates of the MICA and Red Mans striper tournaments?

No, and I haven't seen any postings on either of their web sites.

The Redmen had a Triple Crown in August and MICA had a fluke tourny this year, but nothing scheduled for stripers that I have found 5hrug?

Fished GSS Sunday, what a great day on the water. Non stop catching. we must have had over 300 short sea bass but it was a lot of fun. 15 keeper sea bass, 4 keeper porgies...

Did an unoffical test run of my Regulator Sat..54 mph with 250 gallons of fuel and two on board. It is going to be surveyed this friday and then I need a new home for it. Anyone have any suggestion in the Tuckerton / Little Egg area?

There are some nice marinas on the island the problem for me would be the traffic on the island during the summer months. I am sure it would add another 45 minutes to my trip.

Got down Sunday afternoon to catch the last of the incoming..anchored along the sod banks for some tog fishing..we got a bunch of short and one that was 14 inches. It wasn't all that productive but it was fun being out on the water.

Sea trialed the Regulator Friday...I was very impressed. The Capt got it up to about 50 mph and just cut the wheel as hard as he could. I just held on and thought "Oh crap". the boat just turned as nice as could be, no stern slide at all. Everytime I get on it I am more impressed. They just need to replace the washdown pump and we are good to go.

Looks like is new home will be Great Bay Marina.

Got down around 2PM (Wed) and tried to get some Tog fishing in along the sod banks. We played around and played around but the combination of the wind, fast running tide and all the weed made for a impossible day. No fish, not even a bite. We gave up and hit the Tuckerton Grille for burgers and beers.

Got a text message from Wreckfish while out there asking me to do a seabass run today. I assumed he was just taking advantage of the 1 foot seas predicted for today but then he told me that sea bass was shutting down on Monday. That really sucks. Took delivery of my Regulator on wed also and I am thinking I might as well just put it right to bed and forget about paying for a slip, etc. Oh well, we really need to do something about OUR fisheries. They are ramming this stuff down our throats.

Wreckfish, sorry I could not join you today. Let us know how you made out.

Well, my boss has been in a foul mood all week, seabass is shutting down on Monday and the wife is, let just say status quo 5hrug.......... couldn't think of a better time to go fishing.  Couldn't find anyone to go with me on short notice so I shot out to LE reef by myself this morning.  It was a little more choppy then I thought it would be but not to bad.  After a little poking around found a nice spot that lit up my fish finder.  The fishing we drop and reel.  Double headers on most reel ups. OK most were shorts but it is alway fun to catch lots of fish. Ended up with 14 keeper Cbass, 2 triggers and I picked 5 crocker on the way in. Fresh clam and hi-low rig - keep it simple.  Wind stared to pick up in the afternoon. Back to work tomorrow.

I wish I could have went with you but I played hookie from Coaching Wed and could not do it two days in a row.

Nice catch, shame you didn't have someone to keep you company   ;D

I am hoping to get some perch fishing in Sat and get out wreck fishing on Sunday if the seas cooperate.

Got down to Tuckerton just as the heavy rain ended. Tried 5 different locations along sod banks for Tog....Water was VERY dirty and we did not have one bite....at the Tuckerton Grille by 1pm.  ;D
