Capt. Phil Dulaine took our first striper trip of 2010 out on Saturday with the Ernie Manasale charter out on our 48’ Canyon Runner and the boys had the time of their lives. Getting on the ground early proved helpful as the bite slowed up later in the morning but as soon as they had lines in they had fish on. Trolling Mann Stretch plugs in 30-50 feet of water from Shrewsbury Rocks on south but mostly staying of Long Branch they picked away at 15 bass from 30-35 inches with a solid bite until mid-morning and then a slow pick. In addition another eight bluefish were caught.

Here is a great post the guys on the charter put up on another site – it’s not a fishing site so hopefully we can leave this link up – check out the post it has pictures and video:

And we’ve got plenty of room for that plus for just a few more dollars we’ll make sure to have dinner catered for you right to boat and ready for you upon your arrival.

While the Canyon Runner Team is known primarily for offshore fishing, one of our main Captains has always had his heart and head firmly planted inshore. Capt. Phil Dulanie has always and will always call striped bass fishing is true love. And why not? He's caught and weighed-in a dozen stripers over 50 pounds and three over 60 pounds and well over 50,000 stripers in his career.
