Seabass Slam Big J 01.06.13

[ParkerBoys]

Went out on the Big J for Sundays offshore seabass trip. It was drop and reel fishing at the start . We had our 5 man limit almost before the sun cam up and by 8:30 AM we were done. Small blues were around in the beginning and faded off after the first couple hours of fishing. No dogfish for us however there were some coming up but not many. The entire boat limited out by 9AM. All quality fish. Our smallest keeper was 16.5 inches. Our largest were at 22-23 inches. The boat limited out on the 1st drop. They made another stop for porgys and it was a little slow. We had a dozen large porgys and a ling to round out our catch. Then a 3rd drop at the end of the day produced a pool winner 25 pound pollack another large pollack and a good size cod to end the day. The pollacks took the pools. Excellent fishing!
