To all who have served….THANK YOU!!
It was a beautiful day to be on the water today with sunny skies, warm November temps and not too much wind to speak of inshore. I hit the bay with my buddy Jeremy Kohr for some tautog fishing and we caught 20 or so fish with 3 or 4 that would have been keepers.
Captain Chris Mizurak of the Angler reported a decent bite for sea bass today with some very nice fish in the mix.
Captain Monty Hawkins of the Morning Star saw some nice fish aboard today as well
Sea Bass 11/11/26
Veteran’s Day – And Thank You!!
Forecast nice as could be, found the ocean calm if with a bit of underlying ground swell.
Didn’t stay that way though. Time we were 8 miles off I was wondering just how far wrong the forecast was. Will & Michael made our block deployment today. Dropping blocks where there’s close to 10K may seem excessive, but I want that reef all stitched together. That’s what it will be too. One day a truly awesome reef – promise!
By and by I pulled throttles back on a piece I’ve fished since the 1980s. Saw a couple nice clouds of sea bass – and would not see them again.
At All.
Whaaaattt…
Did pick away though. Even the Pastry Prince was boxing a few cbass.
At last I located sea bass some 20 feet thick on another spot. Was a nice pull.
Greg was first into double digits. Michael, using his reef builder’s karma no doubt, won the pool by a whisker.
See what tomorrow brings!
Cheers,
Monty
