[Hotrod]

Nice Job Guys.  Nice to see Uncle Luna  holding a fish he caught.

I browsed through some of the Numbers.  Not sure if everyone is in yet.  it's late.   just got home..  but it looks like everyone had a great time.  we'll wrap this baby up in the AM.

I have a great Saturday, but even a better Friday evening.. 

Team LS3 had a pretty good day.  The team of Luna Sea, Uncle Luna, Capt. Anthony, Skolman and his son Jason.

Early start had a real nice drift over the Reach Channel 9 and 10.  When the drift stopped dead, we headed for the Sandy Hook Channels to pick up a better drift.  As the day went on, the drift became unfishable.

Our total tally for today was 11 Keepers.
1 @24 1/2"
2 @24"
2 @22"
4 @20"
2 @18"

Our score for today was a total of 16.60 lbs.
1. 5.00 lbs
2. 3.96 lbs
3. 3.88 lbs
4. 3.76 lbs
What hurt us was a 24" fish that went 3.96, that I thought would have went over the 5 lbs mark.

I have the form to fax, if there is a place to fax it to.

Great day, ton, and tons of laughs, like always.


If you want, use my format.  Report, weight, and pictures.  No weights will be accepted unless posted here first, using a similar format with pictures.

Nice job guys 
Looks like you had a great time

The Fluka Brasi crew Of Dave, Ross, My bro Rob, and myself had a great time today. Spent the day in the Reach, mostly from the 10 (where we had the pleasure of seeing Nick and the LS3 crew) to the 14. Steady pick thru the morning, and when the drift died, decided to stay put and switch to jigging..continuing to pick away. Ended up with 8 keepers for the boat.. with no help from me at all.. My juju was bad all day, after my lucky "Jersey Fresh"  hat got sucked out of the boat on our first move.. and I just couldn't get it going today..Good thing the Jersey Boys bailed us out. Our potential anchor fish, was a nice lookin 5-6 lber.,  came un-buttoned on Rob just as Rossie was sliding the net under!    
As for our weigh-in, I will leave this up to the discretion on the judges.. Lack of advance recon left me unable to find digital to weigh on..I first weighed in on at the Tackle Box in Hazlet on their beam scale. As I could not get a pic that showed the #'s on that scale, I went into Keyport and tried Crabbys..They had a dial scale that  could be read, but neither scale had increments less than a half pound.. Also, a few of my scale pics taken on my new little camera have one of my sausage fingers  in the frame. So I will gladly accept any ruling on our weight or entry.

Our top 4 fish:

1. 19 1/4"  3.0 lbs
2. 19 1/2"  3.5 lbs
3. 19 3/4"  3.5 lbs
4. 20 1/2"  4.0 lbs  

Total Weight: 14lbs.
This is the first tourney I've fished in about 20 years and we had a blast!. Congrats to all, and thanks NJSWF for a great time !

Feel the same here 

[Capt. Mike]

Great job guys, nice reports, nice job catching, wish we could have reported the same.
One of the toughest days on the water for us ever, at one point it about an hour to drift 300 feet, the only thing that pushed us was the wakes from passing boats. Most of the guys in our area were fishing the sunshine tournament, had to be about 200+ boats out there with us crying on the radio of the same conditions. The bay guys seem to have a little more action, the bay also seem to have had a better drift. Well congrads to the winners, glad we all did this event was still a great time with lots of laughs and maybe even a few confessions or 2.

Thanks to the NJSWF site and especially the organizers.....As a new member Our team had fun (Sea Dog II)even though we had too many through backs and just two nice keepers.look forward to the next one.

[Luna Sea 5]

i think I am going to try to create another even for Late August.  I will give it some thought this week at work and post some opinions on the Mod board and once its organized, we will post it up on the open forum. Hopefully all who had a good time will try to bring more people to the event to make it better..

Irish Ayes catch weigh in pics. I hope they can be seen. Sorry for the poor alignment of the pics but the B&T scale is hard to read in the camera. I tried to get the fish and scale in the pic but was more concerned with the scale than the fish.

Sorry about the peeps in the back ground too.

The official results are posted here.

Man, I forgot just how slow this computer is. Here are the other two fish.

[stelios]

Thank You for having us in your tournament, had a great time. Nice to see guy from the site on the water.

No wind , little wind, too to much wind from the south east made for the slow day.

To set the record straight(as much as I hate too).

The nice Ride is my Buddy Dave's

Uncle Paulie had the Big One
Dave had the 2 Middle Fish
Mr. Deo picked up the rear
I drove the boat

Not bad for A 1/2 Day'er ( Capt. Jerry )

P.S. Jerry, Big Fish caught during the Big Nap !

Looks like you & the boys had a good day of fish-in. Can I ask, what bait was the best and did you use any artificial baits.  Thanks.
