Njf Gambler Njfishing Sea Bass 2/2

Leif,

Awesome trip! Good to see the fish were still in the mood after the storm this week. Pretty amazing how stacked the off shore wrecks are with jumbo sea bass. Good to see. Thought it would be a little cold out there today but after reeling up a few fish from 200 foot depths you warm up pretty quickly. Anybody jigging them today. Any cod or pollack hit the deck and were there still bluefish out there? From the third picture it looks like the answer regarding bluefish at least is yes. I would think the water is getting a bit cold for their liking but then again when you see reports of weakfish, bonita, bluefish etc. you just never know!?

Way to go guys. Gambler runs a great operation!

I caught most of mine on a hammered diamond jig.

Did the sea gull hit a jig or take bait? Hope you vented it before the release! I've heard many people say that sea bass will not hit jigs on wrecks but will do so on open bottom. I assume that most of these offshore trips are fishing wrecks and if so there seems to be a lot of sea bass taken on jigs. For all the jig experts out there, was wondering what your opinions are. I've heard this from a few very knowledgeable jig guys but was curious what everyone's opinions were.
