Hi Flier Running Open Boat or Charter For the Big Stripers

Finally! The big bass have finally come our way. We had a 42 pounder today that crushed a big white Mojo. We were trolling off of Island Beach State Park in 63 feet of water this afternoon. Here is the YouTube clip of the end game: youtu.be/1nJMnukli-8 Lots of bunker pods around. Something was giving them a push at the surface. I almost reeled in the trolling gear and switched to snagging but I wanted to see if I could put another one in the cooler first and sometimes you should stay with what just worked instead of switching gears but I’m still not sure if I made the right call. After a while the bunker went down and we never got another bite. We still read big balls of bunker on the machine and a nice steady stream of big single marks right in the “kill zone” but they eat when they are ready not when we are.

Sailing every day Open Boat or Charter. Thurs (tomorrow) and Friday, May 24 and 25, Noon to 7 PM and Sat, Sun, and Mon, May 26, 27, and 28, 6 AM to 1PM. $175 person, 4 people max.
Weather looks pretty good. There are also blues in the bay if we feeling like casting for an hour or two after the bass effort.
