Giant Seabass on the Atlantic Star

[ckonkol]

Atlantic Star 1/31

My friend Eben and went down to Wild Wood to fish on the Atlantic Star. I started jigging using a 6oz diamond jig and got 3 keepers and switched to bait and started to do a number on the bigger seabass. Eben got 1 on the jig and went to bait. He got one that was 22inches. After letting some line out on the anchor I hooked up to a 24inch seabass that went 7 pounds. This reset put a lot of fish into the boat in the bigger size range. We made a short move and I went back to jigs and got 9 more fish on jigs then one on bait. Eben hooked up toward the end of the day to a hefty 25inch seabass that weighed 7pounds 11oz back at the dock. The biggest seabass that I have ever seen. Eben and I both had our limits. A lot of nice fish were landed and a great time was had for all. Defiantly some monster seabass out there.

By far the best BSB fishing of this season Chris. Congrats on a great catch and enjoy at the dinner table.
You are wise beyond your years in targeting these "less sexy" fish. Meatfishing rules!
