Sunday on the prowler.
I know, I know..... I said I was heading to cape may, however as I was pulling out of the drive way, the capt sent an email canceling the charter with no explanation or phone call, poor business sense as far as I am concerned. So we moved to plan B, a day on the prowler.
Got to the boat early to take up the stern for the nine of us who were supposed to be down south. The boat ended up with a nice crowd and off we went. After a quick ride it was lines in. A lot of life and some quick shorts. I thought we were gonna be blessed with a good day, but for me it was down hill. Capt Glenn kept us on good bottom all day but I could only catch shorts. After a long day of dehooking last years models I finally found a 15 inch fish. Others were able to scratch together a catch, but I shot my load on that one fish. Lots of laughs with Gerry z, Joey da fish and their crew. We made the best of a disappointing situation. Can't say enough about how we were treated by the crew of the prowler! Rob, as always, thanks for everything!

Re: Sunday on the prowler.
Cudos to Capt and crew of the prowler they managed to keep us on the fish pretty much all day. I only caught shorts and the bottom. But the boat managed a good bite all day. The mates were helpful and professional as was the Captain. Thanks for a great day

Re: Sunday on the prowler.
Was actually anticipating a report from that trip, good thing you got the email in time.

Re: Sunday on the prowler.
Fun day although a party boat with a good size crowd was not what we were expecting, I can't think of a logical reason a charter would cancel on us at the 11th hour offering no explanation. Maybe there is a good reason??? I am glad I found out about them now before booking our group trips for next fall.
The prowler is a fast boat and the filets were expertly cleaned. Nice job by them, I am adding them as a boat on my list. Looked like the whole boat had one to three keepers, times that by the number of guys on the boat and their was a lot of meat hitting the deck............. Oh yeah, Drum roll please...................... I COULD'VE BEEN ON THE MIMI By the way, the family enjoyed having the extra filets Gerry

Re: Sunday on the prowler.
Not taking away from the prowler, great boat. If that ever happened again, cape may has a GREAT party boat as soon as you pull in on the left, with a great capt Paul. I have had my Best tog days out with him, as well as fluke, he really knows how to take care of his fares. Also it's a nice big boat, fishing wrecks that are hardly fished. Check it out next time your down there.

Re: Sunday on the prowler.
I had a great time yesterday. Lots of laugh and good fishing. Thanks for the invite again, Gerry. The crew of the Prowler are top notch.
As anyone seen a report from Down Deep yesterday? Just curious to see how they did |
