Thank you
Im starting with Thank you on multiple levels. Thank you God for some sunnier weather. Thank you State of NJ for allowing us to fish for Sea Bass and Fluke. Thank You Customers for going fishing.
After a very rainy Memorial Day weekend, the winds subsided for a bit, the sun came out and we got to do some good fishing.
Captain Mike and Jim got out in the Ocean and found signs of Sea Bass, some of which were keepers. We saw our first throwback fluke also out in the ocean. We also tried Delaware Bay for better Fluke fishing, and while many were throwbacks mixed with junk fish like Spiny Dogfish, we found our first Kingfish of the Season, a welcome sight. We then tried Cape May Point which did not yeild great results, but this usually develops as the season progresses. So our options are plentiful around the Cape. Captain Mike is sailing daily at 8:00 AM and 1:00 PM.
In addition to great day fishing, our nightly bay fishing trips are also showing success when we make it out. At this time we are fishing at 6:00 PM Wednesday, Friday and Saturday for Drum Fish. Captain Dave and Jim have had some success with a good bite still going in Delaware Bay. Fish range from 25 pounds up to 70 pounds. Fresh Clams is still the bait of choice.
