Tog fishing in ocean city maryland. New personal best #15
 

Had the pleasure or fishing with fish bound charters this weekend. Saturday was very nautical with a big easterly swell. Kane took us out knowing we wanted to fish. We had to stay close due to the conditions but we still had a great trip. Finished day 1 with an easy boat limit and threw back plenty of nice fish for the last few hours. Alex had a nice 9.5lb fish to top off day 1. Day 2 was supposed to be much nicer weather and the plan was to run further. The weatherman was wrong but we went out anyway. Another great day of fishing as Sal had a nice 11.5 lber. I also caught my personal best at 15lbs which was released. Alex had another pig on that eventually found its way back to the wreck. Eric had a bunch of nice fish as well. Lots of fish in the 4-8lb range and an easy boat limit. Back to the dock early after fishing in the snow. Great weekend with a great group of anglers and crew. Thank you Kane and Kevin.

John,

Try to post a picture of your fish. She was a beaut. I was very happy to see her swim away so strongly. Good fishing with the whole crew and congrats on a great fish. You were hot all weekend. Alex had a real heartbreaker on. He got the fish up from the bottom and the fish just stopped. It was BIG. As Alex tried to crank it up his reel handle broke. He grabbed the line to try to hand line it, but the fish made it back to the wreck. Alex took it better than I would have.

WOW - I've seen stripped gears, straightened hooks, broken hearts - but that's the first time I've heard of a wily Tog breaking a handle :eek: Keep at it Alex, she'll soon be yours !

Alex imagine if that happened to me how many F bombs you and the others would have heard! It has happen to me and another fellow while Golden fishing. The screw within the handle just broke never the actual handle. I used a screw driver to finish the job, someone gave my bud a Dewalt drill that adapted to his reel and completed the job and landed the fish. No BS! It was a Manual trip too. lol Dennis
