Wilson Gama Charter for Sea Bass

Today I had my cousin Wilson and his boys from the docks out for the day. Started out on some snags close to home and it was pretty good action with nice size seabass. In two drops we had close to 80 keepers plus some ling and cod. After that we headed south aways to check out some pieces in 60 feet, We got into a decent tog bite but unfortunately they were all short except one but fun nonetheless. We added some more seabass to the box with one being a real inshore monster at 6.05 lbs and 25 inches. Total for the day was 93 seabass plus a handful of ling and the one tog. Fun day with my peeps.

Open Boat Mud Hole Wreck Saturday

Ran an open boat trip yesterday which consisted of both regulars and new customers. The ladies came out in force today and held their own fishing a long day in the deep. First drop was in 85 foot to see if we could grab a few seabass before hitting the ling drops. Got a few nice seabass there plus some cod and a big ole male blackfish (released). Took off and hit a wreck in 130 foot and we plucked a few fish off there. Next stop in 150 produced the same but the pickins were a bit better. After that drop, anchoring conditions fell apart but we continued to pluck away. On the way home hit another drop in 70 foot and with the seas building we managed a full pail of seabass pretty quick and headed to the barn at 6:30. Our total for the day was 46 ling, 25 seabass and 4 keeper cod plus some released huge winter flounder. OK trip fishing-wise but great nonetheless. I want to thank everyone for coming down and making the trip. ~Capt Carlos

Wilson Gama Charter - Mud Hole Wreck Cod/Ling

Sunday I had my cousin Wilson and all his boys from the docks out for a Mud Hole wreck trip. Started out in 150 foot of water and the ling started coming in at a nice pace. The newbies were catching on pretty quick. We also had a bunch of cod, some keepers but alot of shorts. It's just nice to see cod so close to home. We made two more drops with the last one serving up a nice mix of ling, seabass and some really nice cod. Our total for the day was 75 ling, 8 keeper cod and 10 seabass. Nice day on the wrecks and great just chillin with my cuz and the boys.

Point Pleasant NJ Fishing Report - Mixed Bag with the Brian Reed Charter

Today I had Brian, his lovely wife and a bunch of his buddies out for some striped bass with some bottom fishing thrown in. Left the dock at 5am and found bait right outside the inlet. Checked that school of bunker out for a few but no takers. Headed north to Spring Lake and came into a pod that was getting smashed by striped bass and a huge whale which came completely out of the water with a mouthful of bunker. Amazing sight!!

We snagged and dropped and caught them pretty good for a while until the mother load of boats showed up. By 7 it was over but we had 8 big stripers in the box so off we went to the sea bass grounds. Ran north and hit a drop in 49 foot and we got into a nice pick of decent sized sea bass plus some ling and big blackfish which sucked throwing those over. Another drop in 50 foot produced a few more keepers plus a couple of short cod. The guys ended up with 43 sea bass and 6 ling. Overall a pretty good day with a great bunch! ~Capt Carlos

Sunday Striped Bass with the John Liptock Charter

On Sunday I had John back with his son and friends for a striper trip. Left the dock at 10am and found the bait right outside our inlet. Stayed with those schools for a bit but no bass with them. Decided to go bottom fish for a little while so we headed east to the same area where Capt Fred had a very good pick of fish a couple days before but the fish were not chewin there so we headed south and found a pick of fish on some rubble in 60 foot. Got 2 dozen keepers there plus one 24 inch fluke and 2 cod before heading inshore for another crack at the stripers. Same scenario.. Alot of bait with no bass on them. Buddy stayed with the bunkers till 9pm and only sharks. Another tough day with the bass for us. ~Capt. Carlos

Dave Zeigler Charter Sunday Striped Bass

Sunday I had my good friend Dave, his wife Steph and friends for some stripers. Made bait quick outside the inlet and headed north. Anchored up in 25 foot and started chunking and swimming livies. We got bites right away but they weren't sticking. The livies were getting attacked on the surface. They would grab the bait, run with it for a while and then spit it out. Very frustrating day with at least 15 bites and only one fish landed. Came in a little early due to the strong winds that came on. Besides the one bass we also got a nice 25 inch fluke. Tough day for one of my favorite customers. ~Capt Carlos

Wilson Gama Charter Striper Limit

Felt good to be out today after a long hiatus. Had a four man charter that wanted some bass and then we were going to get some local cod. Headed up north to where the fleets been catching and we got into the stripers right away. The guys landed 8 bass in three drifts throwing back two of the keepers that were a little over 28 inches. That might of been the kiss of death cause after releasing the second keeper the fish dispersed and it was over.

Around 9:30, we headed south and by the time we hit the first wreck the south wind was starting to come on. Two drops in 70 ft resulted in a few bites and that's it so we hightailed outta there getting to the dock in time for lunch. Some cod would of been nice but the guys still had a great time! ~Capt Carlos
