Well finally, the bass are here. Very, very close to home. Broke the inlet and was headed north when we saw a CLOUD of birds southeast about a mile. Turned around and when we pulled up .... Readings out the ass. Bass all up top for about a mile. Instantly 2-3 fish on. Turning the handles worked best. Fish ranged from just under 28" to 25#. Limit of bass by 7:15am. Ran to the north a couple miles and there they were again. Couple on immediately. Broke up and went togging around 8-8:30am. Ughhhh, tough blackfish bite today. Only some shorts and 5 nice keepers on 2 local drops. Picked up and looked for bass on the ride home and BAM, 2 on the second the boat stopped. Caught some more nice fish keeping our boat limit and releasing the rest. Had a short or 2 and only 2 blues all day. VERY VERY GOOD FISHING! Bass breaking water almost all day. Every fish we caught today were on jigs, needles, plastics, etc. finally some nice fishing in our area after countless miles and hours of searching or seeing bass that don't eat! Finished our day with 16 Stripers to 25# and 5 quality blackfish. Cancelled tomorrow. OPEN BOAT WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY STRIPERS AND BLACKFISH. See you soon!
Nice job guys.
