paul baldassano and friends 8/16/15

capt's kevin gerrity and dave bender took paul baldassano of farmingdale, ny and friends out for their annual overnighter. these guys have been fishing with us for years and we enjoy their company. the day started with a large net wrapped around our prop at the dock!! thank you lightning for jumping in on a sunday morning to cut it off. upon taking our spot in the bigeye armada we got a double header at about 530 pm. one pulled off right away and the other was on and the battle began. the guys were amazed at the fight these fish put up and they passed the rod like a spliff at a marley concert. 7 feet from the boat and an hour later the hook pulled ###%%%
put em back in and we get another one on and the hook pulls right away, its now dark and bang on again. this fish is big, and once again the passing of the rod. after well over an hour we get the fish to the boat and it makes a jog left and the angler can't quite get there as quickly and he's gone. long silence...

the night bite was non existant except for the ray that spooled a fifty wide.
back on the morning troll we get our last bite on a bar and the fish inhaled the hook bait and broke the line.
we sailed back to manasquan with a busted ass and a tear in our eye. we had five bigeye bites and two to the boat and nothing to show for it. the guys already booked for 2016.. they are going to the gym and i'm spending two weeks at charm school in january
