Juan Ortiz holding two of his keepers from todays trip. Juan won todays pool with a 5 pound fish.
Great fishing again today. We fished around Sandy Hook, and had perfect conditions, west wind with outgoing tide. Caught a mix of shorts and blues, with a few keepers mixed in. Made a shift to set up for the change of tide, and it payed off. Super fishing for the last hour and a half of the trip, and the keeper ratio was much better. High hook was 6 fish, and Juan Ortiz won the pool with a 5 pound fish. Juan and Harvey Weyouche teamed up to bag 11 keepers. This is some start to a year alot of us thought would be a rough one!!
Once again I apologize for the delays with the reports this weekend. I'll figure out another way of making posts when I am on the boat all day and night. (Hint to John, Wireless Internet. haha)
