Captains Phil Dulanie and Mark DeBlasio gave sea bass fishing a shot on Tuesday with the Sean Mawory charter from Holmdel, NJ. Knowing that the water temperature was still a little colder than we prefer the charter had their hearts set on eating fresh sea bass. We first hit a couple wrecks in 90 feet of water and picked only a couple sea bass, blackfish and 2 small cod on those pieces. However, a move to a wreck in 75 feet of water saved the day. It was by no means a bailing of sea bass but the charter ended up with about 40 sea bass and blackfish in the box and released another 40 shorts. The largest sea bass weighed 4.5 pounds and the largest blackfish weighed 8.12 pounds.
