Captain's Focus

8/4/14: Monday, the weather finally cleared up, the seas are calm once more, the water is clear, the temps are back up (59 degrees on the bottom Friday) into the 60's on the bottom, the drift isn't great but there is some, so, what is it? We had fish earlier in the week until Thursday, the southwest wind came and the fishing went downhill. Hey, don't get me wrong, we have a few that will tell you otherwise, like Carl Hart of Whiting, NJ, who turned some heads with a 7.5-lb fluke (his granddaughter got a nice one, too!). Also Geno Kosky of Secacus, NJ, caught a nice 5.8-lber, way to go, Geno, you're back! One of our favorites, Arty Hoyt of Manahawkin, NJ won with a 5-lber, and Kenny "D" is on the board again with a 4-lb winner fluke! Cole Gibney of Glen Rock, NJ won with a 2.8-lb fluke and also Roger Jacobs of Doylestown, PA won with a nice 4.5-lber. My apologies if we missed anyone. The Carolyn Ann will be sailing two 4-hour trips every day until August 29. That date is the Friday before Labor Day, and that's when we switch back to one 6-hour trip daily. Remember, Labor Day is early this year. Also, on August 14, on the afternoon trip only, we will be chartered. My, the summer is flying, and I just want to thank the Bordentown Elks for a fun trip. It was a fundraiser for the Veterans, and we had a good time even though the seas were a little rough and the fishing was slow, the girls and guys were great! Hope to see you again, and thank you Heather for the arrangement. We are ready! Let's be patient. We can't make them bite, we can only take you there. But when they decide to feed, the boat will be there to harvest, and I hope you're on it! Sea you there. Gina
