Night Striped Bass Capt Ant reports a slow night of bassing. We marked everywhere we went, only 1 bass on the ebb, then we had to sit through the slack and the start  of the flood we found beautiful blues biting baits. We picked away and in the blues we picked a few more bass. Once the tide started cranking, all stopped not a touch.

The edible pool winner today was Alvin Joseph who caught himself a nice 12lb Bluefish. 2 Day Tuna Capt Carl reports a decent tuna bite during the day, but a slow night.

3 Day Full Moon Tuna and Sword Ultra LTD Capt. Carl reports a pretty tough trip for our 3 Day Tuna/Sword trip. We started off trolling on Day 1 with whales, dolphins, and bait all around the boat but we only stopped for a couple of mahi mahi. Finally, late in the afternoon, we ran into some albacore and got 4 out of five on one pass. We made a couple more passed in the area but that’s all we got, so we anchored up and almost immediately landed a nice yellowfin on the chunk. For the rest of the night, however, we did not land anymore tunas. We did land and release 2 small swordfish, and had a couple other bites but nothing else boated. We started trolling again early the next morning and hooked up with some more…

Night Striped Bass Capt. Ant reports another excellent night of Bassing with 53  Stripers caught as well as a mess of Beautiful Blues.  It wasn’t the mayhem of Thursday’s trip, just consistent action every drift until the tide died out on us.  We also had to deal with the weekend Googans doing 20 knots through the biomass and about 75 boats fishing the same zone so obviously it scattered the linesiders.  All in all, we still put the meat in the box!! Returnees from Thursday, George Jehn and Chris Luke one again had their limit.  Chris’ better half Michelle made her first trip and landed her first Starship keeper, then told Chris he needed to buy her a rod of her own…ah what could be more romantic:):)….Doug Seay, who has had at least one bass his last 5 trips didn’t…

Full Moon Night Striped Bass Capt Ant has just one thing to say, GET IT WHILE THE GETTIN IS GREAT!!! 41 fares, 77 Striped beauties. It was an unbelievable night. The moon lit up the sky, the moo cow linesiders lit up the bottom machine and at the end if the night the anglers lit up victory cigars!  Every drift produced 5-10 bass with only a few blues in the mix. It wasn’t easy, you really had to let them eat and that’s tough in a 4 knot tide, but those who got it down were rewarded. George Jehn, author of Flying to close to the Sun, available on amazon, was high hook with 7. Chris Luke a close second with 6, Danny Wes with 5. Frank the Greaser Stoutenberg nailed 3 in the last hour alone. All retaining their…

3 Day Tuna And Tile Ultra Ltd  Trip Capt. Carl reports a decent trip considering the weather conditions. We picked up one albacore on the troll as we headed to the bottom fishing area. Bottom fishing was OK… We had some tiles, quite a few barrelfish, some northern groupers, and some hake. We were picking away just fine until the wind started coming on too strong, so, we got back on the troll and got another albacore before dark. The first night was slow and rough! We had one mako jump the hook off, and another pup mako released. The next day we battles some strong winds and heavy seas until the afternoon when we picked up some mahi mahi and had a good shot of nice albacore before dark. Once again we anchored up for the night and had…
