FISHERMEN/Monday & Update Report

[1captainron]

Amazing all the changes I have seen in my career over the years....

Here we are in September, the Fluke should be in Ambrose Channel biting like Porgies as they make their way offshore, yet to this day I have not caught a keeper in the channel, the small fish that were prevalent and provided action are non-excitant. If you are not fishing some Rocks, a wreck, mussels or small snags, you don't stand a chance at catching anything.

Yesterday, I fished every area I have covered this season in ONE DAY!!! When I didn't see the short bite, I left to hit the next spot only to move on and on. Lack of current and drift didn't help but that's just another excuse.
Today we fished the current in the AM and it didn't make a dam difference. Ended up fishing offshore slugging away at the shorts, the Sea Bass and finally by days end a handful of keeper fluke.

Gonna give it Hell the next couple of days then we are Booked on Friday (not available)....Saturday we will begin Porgy fishing and continue bottom fishing until (Pray to God), some Striped Bass show up!

I hope the folks at NMFS are proud of themselves for totally destroying what was once an awesome business, an awesome life and a future for anyone who ever thought of doing this......God Bless America.
