A few things:
#1 - Steve went fishing and it DIDN"T RAIN!!!!!! (curse of the "trowpical storms" is hereby broken)
#2 - My skunk is hereby broken - well - sortof ....still didn't get a striper, but I had some decent pullage by something other than a skate,, dogfish, or dead bird! So that counts for me! (now...time to search through the bluefish recipes in the "cookin them up" section.)
Report - started fishing IBSP around 4pm - zip nada nothing going on until 8:30 ish - right at dusk bam bam bam - the blues started hitting - we were down to one rod a person at the peak...if you tried to bait a second rod, you'd have a hit while casting it out.
Oh yeah - the usual skates were there too after dark.
Here's a picture of the largest - 26 inches
This one jumped completely out of the water as I was fighting it..pretty cool to watch.
