Paul ran to the south looking to find the bait and warm water. After a long ride back to the north they finally found 57 Degree water with some bait reads at the Rocks.
05 03 2015 Capt. Paul ran the Bounty Hunter back up north with an Open Boat crew. On board we had Bounty Hunter supporters Bill, Chris, Joe, Ed Doug along with newcomer 13 year old Trevor who was in search of his first Bass.

Paul headed south and after an hour search finally got on the Bass reads. With Don having a business commitment in the afternoon we only fished for 4 hours then called it a day.
You could troll all the 26 27 Bass you wanted but the keeper size were scarce. After a long day we finished with 2 Keeper Bass and released over 2 dozen shorts.
There was no love for us today as we worked 3 or 4 schools and all we got was a couple of run offs and that was it for the Snag Drop portion of the trip. It was a nice calm day on the ocean but not enough Bass to go around.
We landed our first 2 Bass livelining and as the area got crowded we moved and made stops on 2 more Bunker schools but came up empty. The fishing was not great but over the course of the day we managed another 3 Bass on the troll along with 8 large Bluefish.
