Friday- April and I headed out late just to give the boat a run decided to hit the deep water. Had a good west wind pushing us right where I wqas hoping fished the NY side and it didn't take long before we had 4 fish between 22-25 inches nice thic fish. Headed in and called it a nice day.

Sat- We had out Doug & Laura headed back to the same spot as Friday but with a much stiffer wind. Drift was FAST it took 12 oz and you were only bouncing it on the bottom. Had 3 fish there between 22-25 inches again Headed to the NJ side and added another 6 keepers to the days catch all fish kept were over 19"s. Needless to say they went home with a nice bag of fresh fish and enjoyed a great day on the water.
