Solid first few days of charters since my teaching duties concluded!! Got articles in both On The Water and The Fisherman mags for this month.
Fishing report (lengthy):
The middle of the week had return clients Tim Murphy, Kevin Murphy and his wife Jennifer. We hit the ocean for fluke and had decent action right away with 7 shorts, 3 short sea bass and a solid 17 inch sea bass. Unfortunately the Atlantic flu struck after 2 drifts and we had to work the bay the rest of the trip. Ended with close to 20 short fluke in total.
Next, new client Glenn M and family worked very hard in the bay on a 3hr charter that was moved due to forecast, but could only muster 22 shorts with a couple approaching 18 inches.
Later in the week, I had return client Sean Schivera of Barnegat cashing in one of his gift cards. He had great conditions and we released 52 short fluke while boxing 4 keepers to 22 inches and a lone bluefish.
Afternoon trip had winds gusting to close to 25knts, but grinded through with return clients Paul P and family. The guys had close to 24 shorts boxing 2 keepers (19, 22).
Ended the week with return client Bob Dodds and crew - we changed to a bay trip the morning of due to the winds. Good decision as the fluke were on the feed again - ended the trip with 45 shorts and 5 keepers to 21 inches.
Took the boys and mom crabbing after the morning charter - 2hrs on the hand-lines and boxed 23 good sized keeps.
**Added some ink (2 sessions - 7hr in the chair), but well worth it. Shout out to owner Brody at Slinging Ink in Point Pleasant.
