Memorial Day Mixed Bag Trip with DJ Palathinkal Charter

Had DJ out with Father in Law Mat, and brother in Law Terhan with buddies Lamar, Don and Walt. Made bait in no time and where off to the striper grounds, marked some fish but fish would not chew. Bounced around deep and shallow no luv, tried chunking just big brusier blues. Changed gears and went bottom fishing, got some ling and seabass. Went back on the hunt for Stripers for the rest of the afternoon and could not get a bite.

Stripers-Seabass Trip with the Adam Conley Charter

Had Adam back for an ocean run with buddies Pat, Mat, Steve and JB. Made bait and was going to head north, but decided to take a drift, went 1-2 to start the day. Looked around and made a drift in pea soup fog and landed another one. Decided to head deeper, found a nice herd of cows willing to play. Went 3-6 with fish blowing up the baits next to the boat. once the dust settled with everyone in the crew landing a bass up to 38lbs we changed gears and went seabassing. Had a decent back landing 2 dozen keepers with over 50 shorts. Glad to be back in the ocean at Point Pleasant!

Andreas Toy+Yamaha Outboard Marine Motors

Good news for the Andreas Toy organization, we were officially notified that Andreas Toy has achieved Yamaha's National Fishing Team status. The hard work and reputation by my team has garnered us support from one of the top if not #'1 Outboard company.This designation falls in line with my philosophy of partnering with the top Manufacturer's in their market segment. With Shimano and Contender, now adding Yamaha to the Mix makes us complete. Thanks for all of the supporters and well wishers and hope to continue to provide quality service and insight to our fishing community!

2 Days of Striper Fishing with Hodges-Tyas Charter

Had Mike and buddies Mat, Wayne, Steve, and Brad fly in from Tenessee. Made our bait on day one and went to work, fought through 50 Blues to land two fish to 20lbs. Next day made bait and made to the decision to fish the bay and work our way south. Same as day before made bait and slugged through 50 blues to land 1 striper, went to rocks dead, worked one of my favortie lumps and had to nice fish on losing both. Made a run way south to seaside and worked the bunker pods with no luv. Tough long day but cool guys made the trip easier. On a bright note we made the move back to our home base of Clarks Landing in time for the fluke-seabass opener this weekend. Now our trips will focus on multi-species fishing which my customers enjoy.

Striper Trip for the Rob Wilson Charter

Had Rob back with his client Art and Buddies Bonz, Tom, and Ron "Bananas". Made bait in great kills and went searching, found some marks and put 2 in the box on the first drift with one of them being Bonz first Striper of his life, kept looking no luck. Once the tide started moving we set the hook and threw the meat. Had a slow pick but managed another 3 Bass and half a dozen blues. Ended the day, using some light tackle on some blues. Nice day on the weather with some cool guys.

Striper 5-8 Bunker-Chunking with the Woelkers-Priest Charter

Had long time customer Brian Priest call me wanting to get his friends out. Told conditions might be rough, but since we were in the bay we could make it happen. Made bait in a few throws and were on our way. Had the kids up first and Luke and Jesse popped their Striper Cherries. Then Eric and Dennis got into the action and we had a nice flurry, landing another 4 fish. Told Harry who is 90 years young,that we will not leave till he lands a fish, so he landed the last fish which a nice 30lb'r biggest in the bay for us this year. Cool to see 3 generations of Woelkers getting in some bassing!
