Sea Dog - Update

I received a call from the marina an it appears that they have the boat in the shop to replace the deck.'ll have to stop by on Monday to check. I was at the marina on Thursday and they were still working on replacing the docks that were damaged during Sandy.

10/26/12 Marina

Delivered the trailer to the marina, so they can haul the boat before the storm "Hurricane Sandy". That means no more trips this year. After the storm and everything slows down. The marina will winterize the present motor, repair the soft spot in the deck and install a new Yamaha 200hp outboard. I guess that I'll either be hunting, fishing from shore or freshwater fishing.

Arthur Kill 10/18/12

Started out in the bay, but it turned nasty with strong wind, white caps and a very fast drift. Looked to find a sheltered area in the Kill and only caught one small blue. At least we didn't catch the skunk

Raritan Bay 10/06/12

Fished the lighthouse and rock piles. Had no hits the drift was to fast and the wind was kicking up some white caps. Before going back to the marina I tied off on a pile in a sheltered area and chummed the water with some old homemade chum. Wayne had a real hard strike from either a blue or striper, but was unable to set the hook. He was using live spot for bait. I in the mean time caught one spot after another until I ran out of bait. Ended up with (45) spot, which will be used for stripe bait. It's been nice to go out and finally catch something.

I went to check my crab pots on Sunday with Wayne, Jetty, Andrew and Rob.   Went to pull up the first crab pot and found that some low life, dirt bag stole the crab pot. I even had a short dark colored line and a small dark float on it, so it won't be easy to find. Anyway only (2) legal size crabs.  We fished for awhile after checking the pots and not even one bite. The only good thing about this trip was getting out on the water, the cooler air temperature and calm, smooth water. Andrew did actually catch something on this trip, but it was just a piece of drift wood. He threw it back, because it was short. Lol

The boat is back! The official test ride proved to have no problems!

I fished with Wayne at Great Beds for a short time, before going back to the slip to complete the testing of the boat a low speeds and backing into the slip. The boat passed with NO problems!

Caught (1) Bluefish using a Killie & Gulp combo. This will make prime crab bait.

Had a real good hit on a Peanut bunker and gulp combo, but it only stole the bunker and got away.

All in all the evening on the water was great, the boat ran great and we caught fish. It can't get any better than that.
