Went out today with a three man charter, Mike, Joe and Bert from Hoboken. After poor results in the bay yesterday we headed outside.
Fished Sandy Hook Reef, a few other choice lumps and bumps and the Shrewsbury Rocks.
Most of the fishing was in 38-56' of water using Peanut Bumkers or Jumbo Kellie/Squid Combo.
Days total was 24 keepers to 23" (most of the fish were in the 18-19" range) 39 throw backs (a ton of Fat, Fat, Fat 16 1/2 to 16 3/4" fish) and 11 Sea Bass to 17"
A good bunch of guys who were very skilled
We will be hitting it hard until the bitter end
