Paramount Monday Marathon

[tautog]

Made it out today at the last minute with a small crowd. Didn't make the boat any money, but it made some people's day. Only had a few showers at sea but the drive home from the boat was more interesting than I like with floods and traffic lights out. Sea basing was tough but ling fishing was excellent with quite a few 3-4lbers in a mix. Also quite a few jumbo flounder came up. Strange catch of the day was a big sea turtle hooked in the mouth on a clam strip. Luckily he used his flipper to get free at the surface.

I would up with a sea bass, a jumbo flounder and 55 ling. Don from Toms River had 2 flounder with a 4 1/2lb pool winner, 3 sea bass, a sea turtle and 42 ling. Yoosuk Lee (real name) had a sea bass, a flounder and 39 ling. Everyone else I spoke to was in the 30s except for Captain Dennis who's catch was doubled by a guy fishing with a upside down rental rod. Thank God, he makes his living finding fish rather than catching them.

I'd also like to tip my hat to the fine folks who own and run the Paramount. From what Tautog said there were not a lot of customers today. But you went anyway. Again, a terrific job by all. A class act.
