Daily Fishing Report From Captain Bobby Quinn
Reports are usually generated daily unless there is a computer issue or the owner takes it off the boat on me, so if you don't see a report for that day and need one just call me on the number above for an up to date report or weather update. Thanks Capt. Bobby 3-10-10 Another nice day out,flat calm and only had a small crowd show up.Saw a higher number of Cod than Ling today.Most were shorts but maybe 4 were keepers.Total of 15 probably on the boat.Fished some shallower stuff so we had less ling today.High hook on those was three.High hook with Cod was actually Five.But again some guys got the skunk.Tomorrow is probably going to be decent,we shall see in the morning. 3-9-10 Another summer like day,flat calm and nice.Headed out made some deep water stops again and had a little better conditions for anchoring than yesterday.Not much better,but better.Ended up with four keeper Codfish ,maybe 4-5 short Cods,and maybe 15-20 Ling.Lots of perch life on the last stop,and the usual Congo eel or two.High hook had a nice Cod and three Ling and some went home only with some Bergalls.Still slow overall but a spectacular day out on the ocean,the water was amazingly clear with fish being seen coming up from 50ft.below the boat.Quite a few dolphin around too,cool to sea the ocean this calm and clear with these mammals swimming around.Water still very chilly at about 38 degrees on top and I would guess about 35 on the bottom.Tomorrow looks super again,see ya in the morning. 3-8-10 Did not think it could get nicer than yesterday but it did today.Flat calm and warmer.Fishing was still slow,maybe twenty Ling and one nice keeper Codfish.Wind completely died out and most of the time I was trying to keep the boat anchored over the spot.It did not work out so well,constantly changing conditions kept me pulling my hair out.Thanks to a great group of customers today for having a good sense of humor.Tomorrow is looking good,see ya in the morning. 3-7-10 Finally a very nice day,flat calm and warm.Nice crowd came out to enjoy the day.Fishing was spectacular today,catching was what we had the problem with.Each spot yielded some Ling,maybe a short cod and some perch.High hook had three ling,alot of guys had none,maybe 35 ling total on the boat.Couple of short Blackfish.Water still very cold with all this snow run off.Nice day out though. 3-6-10 Almost identical to yesterday,rough in the morning and few fish biting.Bigger crowd came out to enjoy the warm weather.Maybe 20-25 ling and a few short cod on the boat.Still a big swell out there.Tomorrow looks maybe better.I hope.See ya in the morning. 3-5-10 Ocean a bit cranky this morning.Made it out with 4ft.seas early and a big ground swell.Fishing was slow to say the best.Only a handful of Ling and a few eels caught on the boat.Herbie did end up winning the pool with his Ling.Congrats.High hook had two ling,but it was no good bite today.The ocean was flat calm when we came in so hopefully it will be better tomorrow.Either way it looks like a very nice weekend to get out of the house,so hopefully I will see you then. 3-4-10 Tomorrow is looking good!!!See ya tomorrow morning.Ocean is laying down nicely and already have some guys coming down,give me a call if you are coming or just show up in the morning.The weekend and mon-tues look good also. 3-3-10 Still no fishing today with the winds so hard out of the Northeast.Friday and the weekend look good so we will see you then. 3-1-10 No fishing today due to high winds.Tomorrow we will not be sailing due to our annual coast guard inspection.I will post next day we will go,probably late in the week because of another storm on wed-thurs. 2-28-10 Very nice day out just not alot of bites.Maybe 15-18 ling and a keeper codfish on the whole boat.Last storm had an affect on the area we have been doing well in.Some of the Ling were jumbos though.Up to four pounds. 2-25-10 Still no good weather to fish.Maybe Saturday,not sure yet.Probably more like Sunday.I will post it here when we are going to sail again. 2-22-09 Perfect day on the water,made a few stops and caught fish on both,cod and ling.Then the winds died out completely,and our anchor hauler broke at the pump so our day became difficult to say the least.No good the rest of the day due to mechanical failure that I could not fix out at sea.Fix it tomorrow,weather is no good anyway. 2-21-10 Another nice day,bit more wind but seas only 2-3 ft.Ling made up most of the catch,high hook had a dozen ling and a keeper codfish.Low hook was up in the bow,maybe only a ling or two.Some big ling though,one ling almost beat out the codfish for the pool.Good to see a big crowd show up to fish.Tomorrow looks very nice.Check out some pics from today.
The kids caught some nice ones today!
Rosco had a good day with the ling. 2-20-10 Another nice day on the water,much nicer than yesterday.Seas only about 2-3ft.Warm,no gloves even needed unless you were on the shady side.Ling made another good showing,big ones at that,up to three pounds.Also had quite a few cods,most throwbacks but three keepers.Some small blackfish,no one really tried for them.High hook had around 12 ling,low hook had one.Pretty decent all around though,most everyone had some nice fish to go home with.Current was much easier to deal with today also.Tomorrow looks very nice,see ya in the morning.Some pics from today.
Did not have to measure this Codfish!!!
Jumbo Ling.
Ronni had a nice batch of Ling today.
Hunter also had some nice Ling and throw back Cod.
2-19-10 Nice day to be out,especially for Feb.Seas stayed about 2-4ft most of the day and it was very comforatable on the anchor.The waves were short and steep so we did roll a bit in between anchoring but it was still pretty decent.The current was cranking most of the morning but the fishing was fair for the ling.High hook had 12.Low hook had two.Maybe a dozen Codfish two of these were keeper size.The one drop I thought would have some Togs on it in about 140ft.of water did and one customer fishing crabs caught three chuckers pretty quick,one other caught a keeper tog.The others fished clams and had some throwback Cods but we didnt hang long there because it got late and I had to check something else out.But all in all a nice day to be out.Pretty mild too even on the shady side of the boat.Winds and seas will be about the same tomorrow,see ya in the morning. 2-18-10 Today is another day on the dock like the past few days due to the winds but tomorrow we are going to be fishing.Winds might still be a bit breezy but looks like the seas should only be 3-4 ft.So we will be going tomorrow (friday).Give me a call if you think you are going.Including you Mr.Kojac,Bob and Herb,Lenny and the rest of you guys.The bouys today only say about 3-4 ft.so we should be ok for tomorrow. 2-15-10 Nice ocean conditions today,anchored up and started out on the deeper side in 230ft.of water.Screaming current out of the south made fishing a bit difficult but we did manage a handful of ling.16oz.of lead and you still had a tough time holding bottom.Stayed like that most of the day so our catch was way down.Only a handful of Ling,some throw back Cods and some small Blackfish.Stopped in a shallow spot at the end of the day and never had a bite besides a lone ocean pout.Water is getting chilly but we still had bites most spots we went as long as it was deeper.The next few days have winds gusting up to 30kts.so we are going to stay at the dock and get some maintenance done cause I dont think it will be to nice out in the deep.Should be nicer by Friday.If something changes I will post it here.Give me a shout if you have any questions.Thanks Capt.Bobby. 2-13-10 Ended up being a nice day out,cold but nice ocean conditions.Had life everywhere we stopped,not alot to keep but we had bites.Maybe 4 keeper Togs,a dozen or so chuckers,lots of bergall life.Maybe twenty or so Ling,and a dozen Codfish that didnt make the size cut.Some sea ravens and some ocean pouts.But after snow life the other day I will take it.Tomorrow looks like a maybe,we shall see in the morning but probably fishable. 2-12-10 Tomorrow,Saturday is looking good,snow is off the boat and we are ready to fish again.So I will see ya in the morning.Still crabs and clams provided. 2-9-10 Nice day out with lots of bites on the deeper wrecks,didnt see any big Blackfish today but we had plenty of bites with the small ones.You did have to throw most back but they were chewing.Codfish also made a strong showing with the boat probably catching over 40 cods.But again most of those had to go back to.End of the day we made a stop a little deeper and had maybe a dozen ling.Only had a handful of guys but it was a very nice day out.The weekend looks good as of now,and their is talk of a Super Blackfish only super pool on Sunday. 2-8-10 Back from Florida for now,looking to go tomorrow Tues.Weather looks good,might be only day of the week,or at least until the end of the week.Gonna look for some more of those Jumbo Blackfish.Give me a call and let me know if you are coming. 1-31-10
Biggest of the day.
Next down from there.It was a nice weigh off when we got in. Had two Togs about 13lbs.One about 12lbs,Maybe a dozen keeper Togs on the boat.Not many Ling today,only about 10 chucker size Cod.Slow but nasty conditions all morning.Ocean did lay down nicely though as the afternoon came to a close.Yuginn below was high hook with 5 keeper Togs.Looks as though I will be fishing in Key West the rest of the week but the boat will be sailing.
1-29-10 No sail today due to high winds,tomorrow is actually looking good,the bouy reports only have the seas about three ft.now.So tomorrow should be about the same.Just dress warm.Sea ya in the morning. 1-28-10 The wind held off long enough for us to get the day in.Actually nice until the afternoon then it got cranky out there.No giant Togs today,but one gentlemen did catch his limit of blackfish,biggest about 5-6 lbs.Few other scattered around the boat along with a dozen ling and three keeper codfish.Tomorrow is no good with high winds and low temps.Probably Saturday is the next day to go. 1-27-10
Mr.Pat Farley and his 14lb.2oz.Giant Male Tog..Fishing was a bit slower than we had the past week with the Togs but Pat managed to get this one to the boat.We had a handful of other keepers,maybe a dozen to fifteen short togs,about twenty or so Ling,maybe two keeper Cods along with 8-10 throwback Cods and the usual mess of ocean pouts and eels.This Alpha Male was in good shape when we boated him so Pat decided to let him go,what a beautiful fish to see in person.I was happy to see him swim away.Tomorrow looks good so sea ya in the morning. 1-24-10 The Giant Blackfishing continued today.Ocean cooperated nicely,calm seas, light current.Too deep and we had some ling,too shallow and we didnt have that many bites.In the middle though we caught some quality fish.Pictures are worth a thousand words they say so what would you say to these fish below.Biggest of the day just shy of 16 lbs.Next up just at 14lbs.A few 12 lbs.like yesterday.One small one at only Ten,maybe a dozen other keeper Togs on the boat with some small Cods.Maybe 20 ling.Congrats to those who landed some of these Logs and the ones that busted some off well there is always next time.Tomorrow is a wash,maybe Tues.Thanks Capt.Quinn
Giant Male.
Giant Female.
Another pig around 12lbs.Maybe 13.
This fish at 12lbs,Patrick has had 6 fish over 10 lbs.the past couple of weeks.Check out the head on this big male.
1-23-10 Ocean gave us a big swell to deal with early today,not rough just a giant heave.Made fishing a little challenging but we caught some fish today.Nothing spectacular number wise,maybe a dozen keeper blackfish,just as many shorts,couple dozen ling,and two keeper cods.Bergalls and Congos rounded off the catch.But check out our pool winning Blackfish below.Two fish just at 12 lbs.hung on the pool scale at the end of the day.Busted off some other big fish.Nice going guys with some Jumbo deep water Togs.Sea ya tomorrow.
This big male just beat out the female below for the pool.Check out the skin of these fish,notice something different?Dead give out this fish came out of deep water,check out the bubbling in the skin.
This female just got beat by an ounce.
1-21-10 What a nice day,only had seven people show up to go,it was a shame but we had a nice day out anyway.Blackfish,Cod,Ling,we had bites from every species today.Even had a small pollack.But the best part of the day was some of the giant blackfish bites we had.We busted off some Slobs.But check out this Togzilla we did land.How about !7 lbs.!!!!!!!!!Biggest I have seen caught on hook and line in our area.Fishing the deeper wrecks is paying off.Fish ate a green crab cut in half with no legs.Now is the time of year to come out and catch one of these beasts.Also had some other nice ones and quite a number of throwback Togs.Nice day all around though with a nice mixed bag of fish.They dropped the forecast for tomorrow and the weekend so it looks good.See ya tomorrow morning.
TOGZILLA!!!!!!!This big female was like lifting a Log in the Boat.Measured 29"long and 9"High.
One of the keeper Cod from today,also had quite a few throwbacks too. 1-20-10 Another very small crowd today,shame cause it was very nice on the water.Made some stops a little further than usual and some of the guys had some decent bites with the togs,while some just couldnt get it going.High hook had four keeper blackfish and a couple of ling.One other person had two,I had one keeper,and two shorts.Maybe two dozen short togs all together.Four keeper Codfish also came over the rail,along with 6-7 other Cods that were just shy of the legal limit.Not as many ling as yesterday but the cod made up for it.Probably going to be targeting both Cod and Blackfish along with the Ling from now on since the water got so cold.We will carry crabs as long as we can get them from the dealer along with fresh clams.Nice day though,tomorrow looks very nice,Friday not so nice so if you can come tomorrow,it will probably be better.Sea ya in the morning. 1-19-10 Very nice warm day on the ocean,compared to what we have been going out in lately.Water was cold though,fish were picky at best.Early out we had terrible anchoring conditions so it made it hard to stay on a wreck,so finally I moved to a bigger area where we could swing around and pick at some fish.Ling made up most of the catch.High hook had six or seven of those and high hook on the Togs was Capt.Barry Goldman with three.I personally fished for an hour or two and had one keeper tog,two ling and three short togs.Oh and some very nice Ocean Pouts.Some guys didnt fare out so well,maybe the ground swell out of the east messed up the bottom a little so I think it should get even better as the heave dissapates.Tomorrow looks even nicer than today,see ya in the morning. 1-18-10 Back from down south,tomorrow is looking good to go out and do some fishing with light winds out of the west.See ya in the morning.Capt.Bobby
1-8-10 Another good bite on the Tog grounds.We had a small crowd come out in the snow to fish today,and it was good.Lots of bites,we had the boat limited out with tog,and had some nice fat ling to go with it.No cod,lots of congos,and lots of small togs with it.Pool fish about eight pounds.Nice day though.See ya tomorrow. 1-7-10 Much better bite today,and alot more keepers.Had Togs up to Ten Pounds.Actually pretty good fishing with some guys catching their limit easily.They were chewing both white leggers and greenies.And we had quite a few Togs on clams.Also had a good showing of nice size ling mixed in.Plus a couple of Cods.But a good day all around.Check out some quick pics I took below.Tomorrow looks like today,breezy but fishable.Just bring your snow boots.See ya in the morning.
These guys had a cooler of nice fish.
Think winter is coming????
Nice barrel of Togs and Lings. 1-6-10 Cold and a bit breezy today,but we managed a small gang of anglers looking to go.Stayed within 80ft.of water and had some life.Shorts out numbered keepers,but we did have a pool fish about 9 lbs.Hans had three others to go with it,so he had his limit.One other had three keeps some one and some none.Difficult fishing though with the wind,but it beat staying at home.Tomorrow looks the same so dress warm. 1-4-09 No fishing again today,winds will start dropping tonite though.The boat will be shaping up in the morning to go fishing.I personally will not be there tomorrow,have to go to Manhattan to get a passport but the boat will be shaping up if you want to go.Be back Wed.morning. 1-2-09 Started out ok in the morning but the wind came on,it got very cold and nasty.Only had a handful of keepers and maybe 20 shorts.Came in early due to the conditions.Tomorrow is on good.Not even sure about Monday.Winds tonite and tomorrow are supposed to be up to 45-50 kts.so sleep in. 1-1-09 How about this for a New Years Day present.Ori Lim caught this Jumbo female just shy of 14 lbs.
The rest of today was picky,little ones were pecking at the bait quite often,had to weed through them to get some keepers.High hooks were on the low side with a few catching 3-4 keepers and alot of people only catching shorts.A few others 5-6 lbs but for the most part the bigger ones had lock jaw.A very pretty day out though.Tomorrow looks breezy but out of the west so the ocean conditions should be good.Just dress warm.Fish of a life time Ori,nice Job.Make sure you show James and the boys this picture. 12-31-09 A little snow this morning but besides that a nice day out,flat calm on the ocean and the fish were chewing.Not a bow bite but it was good up there especially for Blackfish Bobby and his Tog team.R.J.Brazicki was high hook on the boat today with seven and his Dad and younger brother were close behind.Blackfish Bobby actually caught a slob that took home a sizeable pool as you can see in his picture below.I guess it at over 11 lbs.Else where around the boat some guys caught five,some three and down to some having no keepers.But overall for the nice size crowd it was a good day.The short life was decent also.We are fishing tomorrow,New Years Day.Normal times.They ate both the white and green crabs today.
The Tog Master.
This big male was a close second.
The Tog Team!!!!! 12-30-09 Finally got a nice day,flat calm ocean conditions.Cold though,,bitter cold but that did not deter fisherman from coming down.We actually had a nice crowd,anchored up and started shallow and was surprised two see a couple of keepers come up pretty quick.Then just picked away every stop we made,fair amount of shorts and some keeps mixed in.Problem was most of the action on every place I would go would be limited to the bow area for some reason.Tide was coming down the beach so it had something to do with it.Some of the guys up front had 4-5 keepers,and 15 shorts.Some guys in the back said they did not even get a bite.Few in between.At least we had the life starting to come back after that giant ground swell over the weekend.West winds next couple of days should get even better.
The ten dollar pool winner worth 300 bucks! 12-28-09 Decided to send the few we had today to the boat next door so I could get some maintenance done,we lost an anchor yesterday so we had to get the new rope and everything back in line,so see you tomorrow.Its gonna be windy and cold so dress warm,hopefully they started to chew again today. 12-27-09 The people came out today to fish,but someone forgot to tell the fish to come out.We had a giant ground swell that killed the fishing.Only had a few ling,one cod and some dogs and eels.No blackfish bites at all. 12-26-09 No fishing today,we will be going tomorrow.See ya in the morning. 12-24-09 Xms Eve gave us a nice crowd to go fishing.They were chewing too.Bites everwhere we stopped.Alot of shorts were chewing with some fish up to 9lbs mixed in.High hook had double their limit and low hook did not get a keeper.They were chewing both the green crabs and the white crabs today.Beautiful day though,Friday and Saturday are no good,looks like sunday will be west winds again.See ya Sunday morning. 12-23-09 Wow,was it cold today.Much colder for some reason than yesterday.Fish were biting again though,problem was alot of small fish were chewing.Pool fish went about six pounds.High hook had seven,few had six,some had five and down from there.But you definately had to work at it today.We managed to get a catch onboard.Tomorrow looks alot warmer and nice.See ya tomorrow. 12-22-09 Well if you were wondering,yes we made it out and yes they were chewing.It actually was not as cold as last week,windy yes,but not as cold.The white legged crab was the ticket today to catching some very nice fish as you can see in the pictures below.High hook had eleven big Togs,some had six,some five,some three and all the way down to none.But the white leggers caught almost all of the fish.Here are some pics hopefully to lure you out of the house and come due some xmas toggin.Tomorrow looks good.
This man is no stranger to Big Tog!!Nice one.
How about a close up?Tommy crushed some big ones today.
Personal Day?
Another Big Male.
Got White Leggers???
12-21-09 Finally got the boat uncovered from the snow today,parking lot is being plowed so we are ready to fish tomorrow.Looking good with west winds the rest of the week.Those that are wondering,yes we are fishing tomorrow(tuesday).Sea ya in the morning. 12-18-09 Another flat calm day but very cold.Did not stop the crowd from showing up though,big turnout today probably due to the weekend wash out we are going to have.First stop this morning we had plenty of life just alot of small fish,Made some more drops and found it slow for the big crowd so we moved deeper and found alot more life,problem was no matter how I angled the boat the port side and forward had most of the life today.The other side struggled.Blackfish Bobby had seven keepers and high hook,Yujinn had six,Russ had five or so,few had three but it was a tough day for alot of guys on the boat.Like I said if you were not in the right area today you did not catch em,even when I would shift the boat the port side still held em.Good day for some but would have been better for a smaller crowd.The weekend looks like a total wash out. 12-17-09 Another nice day,just cold and windy.Had a good bite almost all day long,lots of shorts and some nice fish mixed in.Quite a few guys had their limit and some had 15-20 fish just under the legal size.California Mike took both pools today with a fish about 8 lbs.The camera froze so we couldnt take any pics.LOL>Tomorrow looks like a nice day,come get in on the action. 12-16-09 This big one did not get away today,but we did shave quite a few off like this one the past couple of days.Had a good morning bite and afternoon chew with this one eating just past lunchtime..Nice day out just a little chilly.Looks good next couple of days with winds out of the west.Dress warm and come take a shot at a Jumbo like this one below.Weighed in at about 12 lbs.on the boat.
TOGZILLLLLLLAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!
12-15-09 Well today was the last warm day we will have all week and the crowd came out to enjoy a nice day on the water.I cant say everyone caught em today,it was actually a good chew in the front part of the boat most everywhere we went but the back and most of the sides struggled.Some guys did catch em though as you can see some pics below.High hook had eight keepers,some had five,some had four and down from there.But like I said it was not good for alot.Probably would have been good for a crowd half the size we had today.But the bow did produce most of the fish.Check out some pics,tomorrow and the rest of the week is good.Just windy and cooler but with it out of the west the ocean will be calm and I think these nice fish will continue to keep biting.Pool fish took home 450 dollars today,big crowd was good to him,he had eight keepers to boot.
Nice one from the Bow.
Nice one from the stern
Jack had five keepers like this today,he told me you would not believe him Frank so I had to post it.
Another nice bow fish,see ya tomorrow. 12-14-09 Beautiful ocean this morning,fishing started out slow,then we picked and plucked the rest of the day,some guys did well,other not so well but check out the size of the fish coming over the rail.These are just some of the pics I took today.Mr.Kojac didnt make the pics because he let another big one shave him off.High hooks had 5-6,some four,some two,and down from there.But alot of quality.
Monster Male!
Big Female!
Another Giant Male!!!
You can see both nice Male and Female fish today.
Ronni with another Giant Tog,Look at the head on this fish!Its gonna be a good weigh in for the Pool.
This female had girth enough to take the Pool it looks like.Gonna be close.
Another nice male,the rest of the week looks good.These bigger fish have been biting,should continue as the water has dropped 5 degrees.Even had some fish chewing the white leggers,and hermits,but green crabs caught most.See ya tomorrow. 12-13-09 Fishing was fair from what I heard today,the problem was the wind came up and they got their butts kicked.I had to take a personal day today.See ya tomorrow. 12-12-09 Another super chew today,along with the keepers we had plenty of small fish keeping you busy.Quite a few had their limit,some had five and down from there but all together for a good size crowd they chewed all day long.Check out our pool winner below.Nice Job Son!!!!!
Ronnie with a big male tog! 12-11-09 Those who did not decide to come down today because of the cold and the wind might not want to look at the pics from today,the big ones decided to put on the feedbag!Check out some of the these fish so far from this morning.
No these are not the same fish.
And the fish kept coming all day,check out more.
And they are still chewing!!!!
12-9-10th,No fishing,ocean is calming down nicely though today,Winds will be strong tomorrow out of the west but we are only fishing a mile off the beach so it will be calm.So we will be fishing tomorrow(friday).See ya tomorrow morning,dress warm it will be chilly. 12-8-09 Another perfect day out,weather was beautiful and the ocean very calm.We also had a nice steady pick at the fish almost all day.Guys did well,some had over their limit,some had six,five and down from there.With a big crowd onboard I was surprised at how many fish were chewing.Stayed in one area all day.Check out our pool winner below,Congrats,Herb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The weather tomorrow is no good and we will not be sailing.High winds are gonna give us rough conditions the next few days.
12-7-09 Nice day to be on the water,flat calm but a little chilly for me.Fish were chewing but alot of small ones again.Had to weed through em to catch some keepers.But we did manage some nice ones like these below.
Billy and 8lb8oz.pool winning Male ,
Good to see some nice ones chewing today,Tomorrow looks like a good day but after that it looks pretty nasty on Wed.Sea ya tomorrow. 12-6-09 Yesterday was a wash,we came in early.Only a few fish,today was slow inshore,had to move deeper then we found some life.Couple of guys had five keeps,some three but it was tough to get around the shorts.If you didnt work at it you got skunked or just caught shorts.Tomorrow looks good. 12-4-09 Had a nice day on the water,flat calm,little bit of a swell left over but very nice.Looking at the water clarity I did not expect much in the way of life after that blow we had yesterday but as soon as we started fishing I watched a couple of guys swinging.We actually caught some fish pretty quick,then it was just a pick everywhere we went,you really had to work at it today to get bites.Blackfish Bobby caught his limit,a few other came close and some got skunked.Alot of guys with 1-2 today,like I said with the giant waves we had yesterday I did not think we were going to catch much at all,but overall I was happy with what we did catch.Tomorrow look fair,we will be fishing.North winds about 15,should be ok. 12-2-09 Had a decent crowd show ;up to hit the rocks today,made four stops and had lilfe on most.Alot of small fish to weed through again but the keeper counts were higher than yesterday.Ronnie Krieger put on a show today for guys that were new to blackfishing,he caught ten keeper togs and about two dozen throwbacks.Some others had five,some had three and some only caught shorts.Tomorrow is no good,we will not be sailing. 12-1-09 Had a nice crowd show up to go today,and we had cool but decent conditions.If the shorts we caught today were keepers we would have been in good shape but that was not the case.They dominated most of the catch,high hook had five keeps,some three,some one,and some only shorts but a nice day out if you didnt mind the chilly air.Tomorrow looks good but Thurday is a wash sounds like. 11-30-09 Made four stops today and had life on all of em.Only about fourteen fishing today so there were plenty of bites to go around,even had a rental rod with five nice keepers.High hook had eight fish,,and a couple struggled only catching one keeper.See ya tomorrow, 11-29-09 Beautiful day on the water today and the boat had a sold out crowd come down to enjoy it.Fish were finicky as they usually are with a crowd of this size,you really had to work around people to catch some fish,most didnt have a good day,some did.High hook had eight keepers,a few had five,but most of the crowd had a tough day.As much as I like fishing with six people we need days like this to keep in business,thanks to all who came out and had a tough day,those that caught em,good for you and especially the pool winners,the ten dollar pool went almost four hundred,and the five had two hundred and twenty five.Nice Job see ya in the morning. 11-28-09 Yes we did make it out today,actually had a couple dozen people come down,even some kids.Ocean was nice with a 30kt.breeze all day coming off the beach.Only had a light chop at most with a little swell out of the north.Those that fished tog before had no problem getting bites today but it was not that easy with the wind and all.High hook had eight keeper blackfish,a few had five,and down from there.Lots of small togs today were jumping on the baits.Dogfish also gave us some trouble at some points in the day,but for such a windy day it was good.As usual if you were new or just not on your game today at toggin you had it tough with some guys not getting a keeper.Tomorrow looks very nice. 11-27-09 For those of you who were going to go fishing today but had to much turkey,or did not like the rain this morning,or thought it would be to windy or rough,or whatever,you might not want to read this report.We only had about a dozen people show up to fish,and those dozen had some superb Tog fishing.These are the days that might not be a great pay day but trying to catch a dozen people fish is alot easier than what we usually have,thats why I try to get people out on days like this.It blew about 30mph,but never got rough.We basically had the whole boat limited out,even the rental rods were catching some nice fish.Got some of the pics from today below.Tomorrow looks the same, windy and chilly just like today but at least the sun will be out.Sea ya in the morning.
Even the first timers were catching them.
The kids too!Those that stayed home today,does this make you feel bad about not going?
Blackfish Bobby and one of his many!!
Hunter needed three hands to count how many he landed today,almost four.The best was the harder the wind blew the better the bite got.
Mr.Pringle a.k.a.No Excuses,above here caught them good.No lack of bites today huh?His buddy Jimmy below also had em.Better have with those rental rods next to you catching them.
11-26-09 We enjoyed a very pretty day out on the water today,fishing was a bit slow to start but as the morning came to an end the fish were biting.Most of the decent crowd caught some keepers today,some caught their limit,some had four,some had two,most had one.But good all around considering we only fished until a little bit past noon.Some big male fish again like in the pictures from yesterday.But the biggest of the day was a big female about 9-10 lbs.Three of the fish yesterday by the way were over 9lbs,which I found out when we got in.The next few days look good with the winds coming out of the west.Will be breezy but west winds will keep the ocean calm.Good blackfish weather though.Dress warm.Have a good holiday. 11-25-09 Ocean was nice today,a little drizzly and cloudy but nice out.Fish were slow to chew today,probably from the Ne wind we had the past two days but as the heave died down they chewed a little,some nice fish too as you can see from the pics below.High hook had five keepers and down from there,but it was not easy today to catch five believe me,it was work.See ya in the morning.
Two of the biggest males from today,also had some big Females.
11-22-09 We had a good turnout again today,not as big as yesterday but a nice size gang.Fish were picky again.Lots of short bites with the fish moving the bait around alot.High hook had five keepers,and the pool fish around six pounds.Not sure why they are acting so funny the past two days,but thats blackfishing.We did not get out Monday,and as for tomorrow well we will see what the ocean looks like in the morning.Hopefully it lays down a little bit. 11-21-09 Flat calm ocean conditions for us today but unfortunately the Togs were very picky with shorts making up most of the catch.We did have a few fish 7-8 lbs.but for the large crowd we had it was tough fishing.High hook had three keepers but most were having a tough time just getting a bite.Hopefully tomorrow with the wind coming out of the Ne they will put the feedbag back on.Sea ya in the morning. 11-20-09 Winds finally came out of the west today,ocean calmed down nicely and we enjoyed a nice pick at the blackfish all day.Some guys managed 7-8 keepers and some five and down from there,some nice fish mixed in as you can see from the pics below.Of course as it is with Toggin some guys just could not get the hang of it today,but thats the way it works,some days your on and some your not.Me personally, all I could catch today was shorts.The weekend looks great.
Al with a nice male.
Check out Pauly with another big male.
Matt Johnson and his big Female.Look closely at the top of this fish.That v notch is from a speargun would that healed over from years back.
Mikey and one of his nice ones. 11-19-09 Fish were chewing again today,not hot and heavy but we picked everywhere we went.Fished both shallow and deeper and had life in both depths.Seemed like the small fish really had the feedbag on today.Some guys had 15-20 shorts easily.Keeper wise we had guys with six,some with five,some only had shorts until the end of the day when we had a decent chew going,and some well you know a mixed bag around the boat.Ocean still a bit bouncy with a nice sized swell out of the east but I think it will drop over nite with the winds coming out of the west tomorrow.Should be good tomorrow,so sea ya in the morning.Pool fish today went about six pounds. 11-18-09 Had a nice crowd today show up to go catch some fish,ocean was a bit bumpy though this morning,so it made it a little challenging to hook em.Not rough,just a bit rolly.First drop had not much life with a hard current out of the north.So we moved down the bank a bit and out of it and had a decent chew going on.I personally had one almost ten pounds off the bat.Then we made a few drops the rest of the day and picked away the whole day.Plenty of shorts,lots of bites if you were paying attention and keeping your rod still.For the crowd total we had a good catch of keepers.Some guys had 5-6,some had four,some three some two,some only managed some shorts but as is usually the case.But like I said overall a good catch considering the crowd.Sea ya in the morning.I have some pics just gotta find the cord for the camera.Pool fish was probably about seven pounds,and I believe Herb caught it.We will see when I get in.
Herb and his Five dollar fish,Nice fish Herb!!!!
Mike with our ten dollar winner,both nice fish!!! 11-17-09 Much better chew today,actually had one person catch their limit of Togs by 9:45 in the morning.But overall for the decent size crowd we had today, it was good.Lots of life with plenty of short fish too.Some guys caught their limit,some had five,some four,some three and down from there but we had a good day overall.Of course with saying some just couldnt get the hang of it,but with practice I am sure they will.Tomorrow looks great sea ya in the am. 11-16-09 Nice day to be out,the fish were a little shy today,the storm must have hurt them a little bit.First part of the morning was very dull with not even a scratch taking place unless you count some dogfish.Then we made a couple of moves and picked a few fish.Some guys had three keeps,some had two,some only had one,and quite a few did not catch a keeper.You definately had to work at it today,some just luckier than others.Check two of our pool winners today.Tomorrow looks good,sea ya in the morning.
Blackfish Doug and one of his three he caught today,and the Ten dollar pool fish!
Andrew caught this Five dollar winner at the end of the day.
