Ok.. yesterday i got a phone call from a member here asking me if i knew of anything going on in my area. I said no i didnt and he told me he was going to go to a certian spot. I told him he was nutz to go there durring the day but he had a hunch. Sooo... about 2 hours later i get another phone call from him tellling me i had better get down there quick. I blast down on my lunch break and find him with a school of adult bunker being pushed up onto the beach by big bass. I tied on my trusty snagging hook which i have been carrying in my plugbag all season in anticipation and instantly snagged one. After hooking it, she sped off away from the school into the mouth of a giant bass. She swallowed it and i gave it about 5 or 6 seconds as she swam off, then i set the hook, or at least tried to set the hook. I couldnt seem to set it so i eneded up dropping the fish. I snagged another and gave it a 2nd whirl.... same thing i couldnt set up on the fish. 3rd time a bloofish bit off my snagging hook so i tied on a NIB yellow swimmer and on the first cast a 20 lber slammed it and did a full flip in the air. I beached it, said good bye and went home with a nice keeper for dinner.
It wasnt the best fishing of the year for me, but it was the most fun by far. When you do so much night fishing, you dont see see that kind of action. It might be happening in front of you, but you never see it like you would at high noon.
thanks for the phone call Chris

Well I did no fishing to speak of this year  I did go after some Macks in the spring and then 1 Fluke trip.
But my season was cut short cause of my wifes health.
I only had the boat in the water 5 times all year and the last time was the first of June.
I am hoping for a better year next year, and I think I am going to try a little more beach fishing?
The only person I have fished with on this site this year is Bigbo.

Best night I had for quantity was with my partner RI Rockhound in early Sept. We caught and released well over 50 Bass with more than half being legal keepers.
Best night for quality in the surf was with the #^^^^^^& back in July when we "tonged 'em" with about 20 fish in the 20 lb range in 3 hours.

No boat, back in the suds.
