Re: Fishing reports for May 1 - May 15
David, I know how painful it can be to sit there and read all of this. When you get out there next, hopefully, the striper run will be in full swing.
I had a great night was Scott and the fox. He would walk right up to me and then back around our site. He was munchin on bunker scraps and disappeared when we got some more company.
It was nice to meet you, Bunker! You had a rough time with the skates. Heads work well with rockfish too and the skate has a harder time getting hooked. Hopefully, you can bring you Alex out soon and he'll show you how to catch fish! :-)
Scott made some most excellent omelets just after sunrise which kept me in the fishing (seriously) I was famished!
It was nice seeing and fishing with Steve again. Great dogs for lunch and thanks for the umbrella. I really needed some shade later on in the afternoon because I had forgotten my hat. :P I hope ya did better after I left, although you looked pretty sleepy. :mrgreen:
The black drum kept us alive. It is a good thing Scott brought the clams or we would have been skunked. I did manage two smooth dogfish, one of which fought like a big striper. It was around 30lbs and I had it hooked in it's side. :? I was pretty upset to see that dorsal fin, but what can I say, I love sharks.
It was a great time. Thanks for the company and I look forward to it again soon.
