I never kept a log and don't plan to start. I'm not trying to be a dick but what you guys are doing is keeping a "tally".
A log is a record of things like:
1. Date
2. Moon phase
3. wind direction and speed
4. time of day
5. depth where fishing
6. Water temp
7. tide condition etc. etc.
I had some good days and I had some bad days, same as everyone else. I'm getting to old to remember many details but this I know, Shrimpman Steve is bad luck for me. I fished with him once this season so far and got the big stinkeroo.

I think date, depth/location fished,and which boat would mean the most for when I look back.

I am not scared by moon phase or tide, because in a full day trip - you will definitely go thru at least one tide change

one thing I don't recommend is fishing within 2 or 3 days after a snow meltdown like we saw this past weekend...

Both good points Mick and Scotty....but we all NO what's really important. Which way is the sun coming up and what side of the boat is going to be in the shade?!? :rolleyes:

Looks like that Fat Lady has sung. With current conditions and cold spell looks like our NJ blackfishing is done for the winter.

Fishing was much slower for keepers this winter vs. past years. Many trip of scratchy and limited bites. Mixed things up during slow bite days to put catches together to end up with some decent numbers considering conditions.

Was able to get in 15 trips from Nov 17 to Jan 17, Best trip was 13 keepers worst trip 1 keeper. No double digits this winter with biggest going 8.10 lbs.

Total count 88 keepers
Trip Ave: 5.8666 keepers.
