Saturday 6/7: Had Warren n crew on for a seabass/ling trip. Stayed local all day. Picked away. Loads of short seabass but enough keepers to keep it interesting along with some ling and about a dozen tog that had to go back. Wound up with a box full of seabass to 2# and around 2 dozen ling. About 70-75 total for the day. Sunday 6/8: Had Dick's charter on for another bottom trip, and if bassin' was good we'd do that. We stuck with the bottom critters all day. Locally life was slow so we went looking offshore. Tried 80' - NG, tried 100' NG, had some life at 120' but it was mostly bergalls, a few big seabass and a nice 25" cod, but in 230' we had a nice pick of mixed size ling, with the biggest being the biggest ling I've ever seen at an even 5#! We then ran back inshore and tried a few more drops around 130' but it was NG, so the we went back to our local spot where we started and, yup, you guessed it, the fishing turned on and we had a wild seabass bite the last 45 minutes boxing up about 2 dozen more seabass. Finished with an even mix of seabass and ling in the box, plus one keeper cod. In total we had about 75 fish total in the box for the day - definitely less seabass Sunday than Saturday. Overall a great day with another awesome crew! |
