With all the bait in the water anglers are trying everything from trolling, cut baits, clams, eels and jigs, whatever it takes for one last shot at a fall trophy before wrapping it up for 2010. Boats can be seen all along the shore line as boaters give it one more run and a few more casts. Bass should continue to hang around with the bait and as long as the weather holds up, we should see fish well into December. There is plenty of spearing and rain fish the bass are feeding on, this should support some really big fish to be caught.

Captain Mike aboard the Sea Hawk from Perth Amboy made a few inshore drops and found blackfish up to 8lbs. Captain Mike will sail daily for Black fish 7:30 am. The crew is on a mission to find big fish both on the in-shore and off shore wrecks. If you?re looking for a good wreck trip for big black fish then give Captain Mike a call and pick a date.
Hopefully the big ocean swells will lie down this week and anglers will get another shot to get back on the fish before pulling the boats for the winter..........
Did You
Know?
The present 54-foot Romer Shoal Lighthouse was established on the
shoal in 1898. It is believed that the tower was used on the grounds of the
Staten Island Lighthouse Depot as an experimental lighthouse for testing fuels,
wicks, bulbs, and other lighthouse equipment before it was disassembled and
relocated just a few miles offshore.
The Romer Shoal Lighthouse was
automated in 1966, but it continued to help mark the entrance to the New York
harbor with a pair of white flashes every fifteen seconds. After a storm in
December of 1992 damaged the lighthouse, the Coast Guard considered scrapping
the lighthouse and replacing it with a steel skeleton tower. Joe Esposito, who
served as caretaker of the Staten Island Lighthouse at the time, refused to let
the tower be destroyed, and through his efforts it remains in place today.
