Mike,

I was out this past weekend off od the hook. You can never tell when the bass fishing will shut down (my guess is when the water falls below 45 degrees, and it is at arounf 53 degrees right now). If the water stays above 45 degrees we can chase birds and catch fish into January. Last year it shut down around mid-December in the Sandy hook area.

Blackfishing is another story. I think that we can just about guarantee good blackfishing into January.

If you want to get out at all, let me know.

Peter
