Them albies though!

We had some epic Albie fishing today.  They were busting bait everywhere you looked.  What a blast casting sting silvers on light tackle.   We got spooled on one rod.  So much fun.  Oh yeah, we got the big drum too! Epic fall fishing!!!!!!IMG_8247

Jumbos!

Couldn’t resist going out in the ocean since the sound fishing has been so tough.   We swung for the fences and managed to get each person a citation drum up to 50″ . . . Oh yea, we caught a few dink trout early too.

Strugglin’

Been having some tough tough fishing since the big blow.  Scraping out small trout and a handful of misc other fish.  I think it’s time to start targeting stripers.  The class of drum that we’ve enjoyed for the past 3 years seem to have disappeared….?  Maybe they will show back up somewhere – hope so.  Thanks for fishing with me everyone! Here’s to better fishing reports! CHEERS!

No bueno

Every update the comes out from www.nhc.noaa.gov looks worse and worse. Really hoping this thing decides to take a turn for the better.  Maybe give us a good run of some swell!   Fished a few trips with small trout to show.  Lots of em – but no size.  Throw in some bluefish , skates, and other misc.  randomness and ya got yourself  a fishing report.  The drum went full Houdini on everyone today.  They’re gonna bite before this blow, guess its tomorrow. Thanks for checking!

Miracle

 

Pulled through in the 4th quarter after I hopped in the tower and miraculously found a school of these beauties in some windy / overcast conditions. Rather be lucky then good! 

Morning trip wasn’t so lucky.  We tried bait fishing for the drum with nothing but rays and a shark. Did catch some misc. bottom fish while we were soaking drum baits.  Still a fun time with a great crew – thanks guys!
