GALE FORCE CHARTERS FISHING REPORT 12-05-09

[Capt. Terry]

HOPE YOUR GIANT BFT SEASON GETS STARTED SOON DOWN THERE GUYS...... HERES WHAT WE GOT UP THE BEACH.

WELL IT HAS BEEN AN INTERESTING FALL SO FAR......
WE HAVE HAD A MAD BLITZ OF BLUEFISH IN THE OCEAN AND INTO THE INDIAN RIVER INLET AREA.....SOME GOOD ROCKFISHING SO FAR BUT A LOT OF SMALL ONES TO BE HAD I MUST SAY.
THE DREDGING OF THE INDIAN RIVER INLET, I HAVE TO TELL YOU HAS JUST REALLY CAUSED ME TO LOOSE CERTAINTY OF HAVING GREAT CATCHES OF KEEPER ROCKFISH THIS FALL,......WHICH HAS LED ME OUT TO THE OCEAN IN SEARCH OF FISH FOR OUR PARTIES.....
I HAVE CAUGHT 95% OF OUR CATCHES TROLLING STRUCTURE AND LUMP, HILLS, SLUOUGHS, AND VALLEYS IN THE OCEAN OUT FRONT....I HAVE NOT MADE A TURN TO THE NORTH YET......BEEN CATCHING ALL OUR FISH BETWEEN THE INDIAN RIVER INLET OUT FRONT TO THE SOUTHERN END OF FENWICK ISLAND.

ALL THE BLUEFISH YOU REALLY WANT NOW,....JUST FIND THE DIVING BIRDS AND THE BLUES ARE NORMALLY RIGHT ABOVE THE ROCKFISH....

ALTHOUGH I HAVE TO ADMIT THAT YESTERDAY'S TRIP WAS THE FIRST ON THAT WE DID NOT CATCH A ROCKFISH THIS YEAR....THE WATER WAS BROWN ALL THE WAY DOWN TO OC, MD LINE. I HAD LIFE SIGNS AND BLUEFISH,.....JUST NO ROCKFISH. I HAVE HAD A FEW TAUG TRIPS, BUT MOST OF THE PEOPLE CALLING THAT ARE BOOKING TRIPS SEEM TO JUST WANT THE ROCKFISH, WHICH IS FINE WITH ME,......I KINDA LIKE TO CATCH 'EM TOO MYSELF.

GONNA THROW A COUPLE TRIP PICS IN HERE FOR VIEWING ON A RAINY DAY LIKE THIS.......

I HAVE AN INLET TRIP AT 12:30 PM TODAY....IT NORTH WIND RIGHT NOW ABOUT 10-15 MPH, WHICH ISN'T AT ALL THAT BAD....TEMP IS FALLING AND ITS RAINING AND THEY ARE CALLING FOR SNOW THIS AFTERNOON....WHO KNOWS THEY MAY JUST CHEW AND WE MAY BE THE ONLY ONES OUT THERE WHEN THEY DO.....
ENJOY THE PICS....

AFTERNOON REPORT.......WELL IT WASN'T MUCH TO WRITE HOME ABOUT OF COURSE......

CHARTER CALLED ME WHEN I PULLED INTO THE PARKING LOT AT NORTH SIDE INDIAN RIVER INLET AFTER I TRIED TO CALL THEM THREE TIMES THAT MORNING.....

THEY SAID THEY DID NOT WANT TO FISH TODAY THEY TOLD ME.....

WELL BEING THE STUBORN CAT THAT I AM.....I JUST COULDN'T TURN AROUND AND GO HOME - KNOWING DARN WELL THAT NO ONE WAS GOING TO BE FISHING THAT AFTERNOON WITH 15 - 20 MPH NE WINDS......SO I GRABBED TO 15-40 LB CLASS RODS OUT OF THE BACK OF MY TRUCK AND A COUPLE EXTRA LEADERS AND TWO EXTRA TROLLING LURES IN CASE I GOT BIT OFF BY A MAD BLUEFISH!

I WENT OUT OF THE MARINA - I TURNED WEST AND I TROLLED THE HOLE SOUTH SIDE OF BURTONS ISLAND.....

FOURTH PASS - POW!!!!!!!!! STARBOARD ROD GOES OFF.....ROCKFISH

SEVENTH PASS,......POW STARBOARD ROD GOES OFF AGAIN ROCKFISH.......

BY NOW I WAS SOAKING WET....EVEN WITH MY GRUNDENS ON.....DIDN'T MATTER - THE SLEET AND RAIN WAS HITTING THE DECK AND BOUNCING UP MY PANY LEG....BUT I GOTTA TELL YA - I WAS HAVING A BALL!!!!!!!!

ABOUT TWO MORE PASSES I MADE UP MY MIND THAT I HAD HAD ENOUGH.........I WENT TO THE MOUTH OF THE SOUTH SIDE MARINA AND MADE A TROLL THROUGH THERE.......PORT ROD GOES OFF LIGHTLY ON A STRETCH 20 SILVER......FOR ABOUT 3 SECONDS AND NOTHING WHEN I GOT TO IT.....

I CRANKED IT IN TO CHECK IT AND NOTHING ON THE HOOK......I REALLY THINK I HAD A FLOUNDER BITE THERE TROLLING THE STRETCH 20 SLOWLY AGAINST THE TIDE......BUT WHAT DO I KNOW.....

WOULD LOVE TO GO TOMORROW OR THI WEEKEND,...WEATHER DON'T SOUND TOO HOT AND I DON'T HAVE ANY CHARTERS BOOKED AGAIN RIGHT NOW UNTIL MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. FISH ARE HERE - JUST THE WEATHER IS NOT COOPERATING.....
