11/16...  Well we finally closed on the NEW Reel Class - a classic 35' Henriques Maine Coaster.  This boat is TRULY a beast, and is a PERFECT 6 pack charter boat with all the amenities you could possibly want for doing the type of fishing that we do here in NJ.  Myself and webmaster Rod will be posting more pics of the new boat as well as specs for everyone to see - there are some posted right now in our photo gallery but there are many more coming :)

Fishing Report.  We've been out 3 times in the last 7 days. 

Last Saturday (11/10) we ran our charter on Capt Dan's Megan Beth (because we were still working on the sale of the albermarle and the acquisition of the Henriques) -- fishing was HORRIBLE.  Not one bite nor a knockdown on the troll all day long.  Worst day we've had in quite a while!!

Yesterday, (11/15) Kenny and I ran the Henriques up from Barnegat Inlet - found loads of boats and plenty of bunker but few fish.

Today, 11/16, was our first REAL trip with the new boat and we did a half-morning trip with Larry, Fred, BIll and Ryan.  Left early, got back early.  LOADS of bunkers, LOADS of boats.  Ryan got our first bass on the new boat, a 24" that inhaled a whole bunker, and Fred got a nice 19#er and Bill got one around 17#.  Very nice morning, fishing was a bit slow but it was great shaking down the new boat!!!! 

**We will be running a trip next Saturday, 11/22!***
