weekend report, seabass/fluke
two separate trips, first one didn't find enough seabass to make a limit (only had about 6 keepers) and headed in to fluke finding a slow pick of keeper sized fish and had my limit on the flatties despite the strange new regs haha. all on schoolbus 3/4oz spros/white gulp
Next time out (this saturday) our first spot was littered with short seabass, with just a few keepers we moved out to another deeper spot and found a much better keeper ratio but were immediately met with terrible winds... we retreated back to where we started but couldn't drift it anymore so we anchored up and put a short but sweet hurting on some keeper seabass to finish off my limit and a just barely short cod fish bycatch. Had to grind all morning, but got it done. all on gold jigs. didn't have much time to fluke on the way back in but we tried for a little and it seemed to have turned into a barren wasteland...idk, we called it a day since the drift was pretty crappy. https://s3.amazonaws.com/photos.fish...0ba0c46392_800 https://s3.amazonaws.com/photos.fish...0b949bf2bf_800 https://s3.amazonaws.com/photos.fish...0ba0c982d4_800 |

Thanks for the report and nice work!! I was starting to think I was the only one inundated with a horrible short to keeper ratio on cbass.

Re: weekend report, seabass/fluke
sea bass fishing off NJ is brutal--no easy way around it. Pinner city. Gotta get you out East on a trip, Chris. Cod from market to 25 lbs and sea bass over 20" lol... CHONKS man, chonks!
I hit the back bay from shore on Sunday and had 10 fluke to 20.5". Not a bad few hours... |
