1/16 Offshore Report - Big Jamaica
 

The Beat Goes On!
The Sea Bass Beating That Is
1-16 Offshore Report

Another very good trip today, making it 9 boat limit catches of sea bass in a row. There were also a number of jumbo porgies and small blues caught.
Offshore fishing is still running strong, and looks good for upcoming trips. The water temperature is holding steady from 52 to 54 degrees which is well above the temperature necessary for the continued migration of giant sea bass and jumbo porgies to the offshore wrecks.

The pool winners were:
Dave Martell from Bronx NY with a 6.5LB sea bass, and his limit of sea bass,
Joe DeSilva from S. Amboy NJ with a 5.75LB Sea Bass and his limit of sea bass.

The big Jamaica is scheduled to sail offshore every Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday leaving 11PM the night before. We have also added a trip for Monday 1/21 leaving 11PM the night before.

The Jamaica Star will sail at 9PM Friday night to the offshore wrecks. There is still space available on that trip. The Jamaica Star sailed last Saturday and had limit catches of giant sea bass and some jumbo porgies.

This venting tool should be mandatory for offshore sea bass fisherman on any boat , this tool can save thousands of fish over the course of a season . Look good to the powers to be that we contuine to do our part as responsible anglers that deserve longer seasons !
