Steve - he never ate the fish but he did giver her a good kiss before releasing [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] ...

We hit a spot off Jamestown with some live buckeys where we had a lot of fun live-linning, BS'n, and talking shop. It was a great time, great company, and a few decent fish to boot. Early Large Bass...

We both had a few runs where the circles didn't circle (their great for drifting baits but not always as effective with live baits) and Jason ended up with a 22+, I had a 24+ and a "rat" 15 pounder.... The bite faded off (as did our live herring supply) but it was a lot of good talk - methods, structure, conditions - real meat & potatoes fishing talk...

Jason - again, thanks for a great trip. I was happy to be part of an adventure which burned the least anount of fuel you have ever used [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]
... Please bare with the colors - I think both our Digi Cameras had wrong color settings going (and we both were taking the pics into the sun - DOH [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] )

Nice fish guys !!

Now your making me wish I was still living up in Mass..... [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

Re: trayder
 

Scott - but yer in Jersey, why do you need an excuse to live in Mass? [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] We're just starting to get bigger fish now (still very early) but you guys should be knee deep in them down your way.

Re: trayder
 

Yeah Island beach is starting to warm up [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] ...lots of shorts ....and a fair amount of limit fish....once the word gets out its tough to find a spot on the beach....gets real crowded...weekends its not even worth it to go

Raritan bay I'm sure is all fired up but I fish mainly south of Manasquan Inlet and dont go up to the Hook

Thanks Miles - for this time of year just a few days into May, they're FANTASTIC fish!

Trayder - the funny thing is that those pictures don't show how close to land we really were - I have a few more on the home box that I can put up... Let's see what else is here, hmmmm - a little fuzzy but... :
