Once again our catch for the day consisted mostly of seabass with a couple of blackfish and blowfish to spice the catch and once again most of the seabass were legal sized. Joe Stefanelli, Maplewood, NJ, took the pool with a nice 4 pound knucklehead seabass.
10 22 15 We had a nice group of regulars with us for the seabass opener today. Almost all of the seabass were nice keepers with very few shorts in the mix.
10 21 15 With the opening of the seabass season starting tomorrow we will be returning to our regular sailing schedule of 7 00 AM DAILY FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE YEAR!!We will now be concentrating on seabass and blackfish!!
The guys had a lot of nice sized porgies on most spots along with most getting into fine blackfish action and keeping their legal limit up to 6 or 7 pounds using green crabs. Plenty of nice seabass still getting a free pass but that will change this coming THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22, when the season for them re-opens!!
Porgies have been steady with the size varying from day to day. Lots of seabass being thrown back each day and some nice blackfish up to 6 pounds for the guys using green or asian crabs.
We would like to give a big THANK YOU to all of our fluke regulars for your hard work in putting your share of fish on ice and for sticking with it every week in spite of the sub-par fishing this season. The number of BIG fish, keepers and also shorts were down for ALL of the area boats, regardless of what any might say.
The guys worked hard and managed to put some nice fish in their coolers by the end of the day. Weather is GOOD for tomorrow and MIGHT be the last day to fish for the next several so take advantage of it.
