Gambler Sunday catchin in the rain

[Ol Pedro]

Woke up @ 5:00 to Rain . Grandson descided to not go at 5:01 . Went ahead and loaded up and drove on down the hill to the dock . I was suprised to see the lot 1/4 full ! Went to put my stuff on the boat and discovered that I had left my jig bucket at home . We headed out to wet conditions and a bumpy sea . About 2/3rd's up the line we saw life close in . Bunker with fish under them . in the first few drifts we had a couple of large Bass and some Bluefish on jigs . We started to snag a few Bunker and I swithed to live lining . After missing one fish I changed to a treble hook and 1 oz egg . I ran an almost dead bunker out and was greeted by a freight train runoff . I counted to five and locked up my Jigmaster Jr and almost got spooled on the first run . A few minutes later Todd gaffed a 20-25 lb fish for me . I hooked and handed off the rest of the trip . It's funny how you forget the rain and wind when you are catching . We picked at them the rest of the day . We tried to help people fish Bunker but way too many fish were missed due to reels being locked up/not realizing they were bit . We finished with between 13 and 16 big bass and at least 10 Bluefish .We caught them as well on Crocs as Bunker . Capt. Mike , Todd, Al , Chris , and Tommy did their best in less than ideal conditions to put a catch together . All the kids on the trip got one Big Bass .

I'll take a freight train run off in crappy conditions with a nice bass at the end versus sunny and warm with no fish to be found! Nice report, Gambler definitely will do their best to put you into good fishing!

Thanks Pete for the report---you've got me envious 'cause I can't get down there to partake of the festivities----is it tuna time yet???

[Ol Pedro]

Chuck , it will be here soon . That first Striper bit like a Tuna ! You should have seen the Roostertail of water coming off the spool ! There is 60-62 degree water touching No Mans Land now and some mid 60's off in the deep . We talked about that nice water that was there a couple of weeks ago but the weather shut down the Tilefish trips .
