Fishing Report June, 19, 2003

Took out a couple of guys from Pennsylvania on Thursday. The pressure was on as one of the guys Bob did a lot of surf fishing off the Jersey shore and he talked one of his buddies Peter to come out with me to catch some stripers.

Things started out slow but pretty soon we started to get into fish and right at the tide change from high to low we started to get into some big ones.

We finished out our 6 hour trip with 7 keeper size fish two over 33” and one huge 40” fish caught by Bob. That is a lot of fish on 15lb tackle. Of course the big one went back to fight another day.

Other days this week were productive as well. On Friday Caroline caught a 36” striper which was quite an experience as she had never really gone fishing before.

Mackerel are around and small Blues were on the offshore humps. Not sure how much longer they will stay around.

Good Fishing.
