10/9 and 10/11 Bottom Fishing (More Pics Added)

Saltwater Offshore Reports
1

Two great days on the water. Tore up the B-liners, Triggers, BSB, Red Porgies, Red Hinds, and caught a nice rudderfish and yellowtail. Misidentified the red hinds as speckled hinds and ended up tossing back at least a dozen on Saturday.

Got caught in some nasty fog Sat morning that made a 10 mile run to the jetties take almost 1 1/2 hrs. Forecast was calling for 3-5 offshore, but it was flat calm… coulda made it in my old 2020.

Left a little later Monday to avoid the fog. The ride out was fantastic, but the ride in was sloppy and painful on the back for me. I was pretty jealous of the crew all cozy in the back on the bean bags…

Had a great crew both days. Thanks to all of you for coming out. Can’t wait to do it again!!

Here’s a pic of some of the fish we caught Monday.

Caught most of those about 60 miles east of the jetties. You’re welcome to come join us and see for yourself. Always looking for help in paying the gas bill.

Thats a nice mess for day two!! Looks like the flash on that camera is better than the one we had on Saturday! Just wondering if they did in fact weight the aj… i guessed it at 75# and the pic says 65#???

Caught one that topped that one yesterday. My buddy Marvin caught a beast on an old rod that looked like it was on its last legs. The old Penn 750SS broke its will and pulled him in for a few pics.

Is that Emily Pond in your picture by any chance?

Do not tell fish stories where the people know you; but particularly, don’t tell them where they know the fish.

Yes. That’s Emily. It was her first trip offshore fishing. She was slaying every toothy critter in the ocean.
