WHIPPERSNAPPER REPORT

[Fishin Fool]

Boat: Fishin Fool

Crew:
Louis Glaser & I (Lucian)

Target: Hog Stripers
Water Temp - 53.3 F

Left Taylors a little after 8:30 am.... Headed to Plantation Light, nice ride at 35 mph... Just cruising along... Saw birds here and there, but wanted the HOGS, so we pushed on...

Arrived at our destination, put out our spread, started trolling North and Bam, FISH ON... BIG HEAD SHAKE, TAKING LINE... Really Excited... Louis is fighting the slob and he comes off... That's Fishing....

Lines back out... Winds are picking up from the South East, not supposed to do that until later in the day.... We continue to work our way farther North and the seas continue to GROW.... Hmmmm, maybe we should head back to the southside before it gets any rougher.... Pulled the lines in and started running south in 4'+ NASTY BREAKING SLOP, making 9 - 11 mph, #@$#...

See some birds off the 4th, so we make a turn, one bite, bluefish bite off... We are now on a search and destroy mission, heading South, fishing here and there all the way to the beach where we find a nice bite on SCHOOLIES, Louis casts up a few and releases quite a few, we trolled up a few and releases more... RIPPING CURRENT....

Called it at 3

Final Talley
Limit of BABIES.....

Not So Nice Conditions to the North, lots of current everywhere from the Full Moon, but still an enjoyable day with friends...

NEXT TIME HOGS... I HOPE....

Big fat eels = big fat rock!
Catchin' is better than fishing!
I was checking out that fishweather website yesterday, winds were kicking down there. Are you still swaying

Nice report. Even in a big comfy sporty, the 6th was a snot knocker out there. The tugs were the best ride yesterday. Big and slow. I think the full moon had a mess of the large rock eating through the night. Get them big time the next time out....flat

thanx for the report lucian- it really can get nasty quick over there with that 3/4' and 2 second interval !!!!! i have seen people duck in behind the ships and call for someone to brings their trailers over from the southside so they didnt have to run back across the bay.

Craig:
Believe me I thought about it, but my oversized trailer and boat would have probably cost me a bundle on the CBBT. I guess I could have headed up a creek looking for a slip to rent and left it for another day.... Still better than a BUTT WHOOPIN...
