Ed's crew was not disappointed as the Spoons produced a Limit catch of nice Bass along with 6 Bluefish. As usual it was nice to fish with Ed and his crew.
Paul ran a few miles north and although he did not find any Bunker or Bass he got in on a good Bluefish bite. Putting out the Spoons the Bass fishing was slow until a rod took a good bend and started to peel lie.
A final effort with the Spoons in deeper water saved the day for us as we went 2 for 3 on a couple of nice Bass. It was a calm day on the ocean with just an occasional shower and it was fun fishing with Dan's crew.
Pulling Spoons Katy had her first shot at a Bass and landed a nice size under. We finished with 1 Bass landed over 15 Blues while keeping 8 and releasing the rest.
05 07 2016 Capt. Paul ran another Open Boat Striped Bass trip today. The early boats were getting a few Bass bites on MoJo's But the Blues were relentless.
The fishing was not great but between the Bass and the big Blues it kept the boys busy. We finished the day with 3 keeper bass and released 2 along with 8 big blues which went into the box.
