Couple of days fishing
 
Spent the other day targeting Sea Bass on the Sandy Hook Reef, then went out solo with the V out in the Ambrose Channel chasing the moving out fluke, found them in 75' of water at the #11 Can

One fluke 24.5 inches the others were 19-21" the one big sea bass was just under 25", which is a big knucklehead around here

flatfish..................the other white meat

good report, i wish our flounder ran that big.

Saw a 9 pounder today in the cooler, fellow at my marina got it. medium sized cooler, head went up one side, across the whole bottom, could not see the bottom, and the tail went up the other end.
I felt quite inadequate posting that little 24 incher today. But dinner tommorow will be sweet thats for sure.
Phat the limit is 18 inches here in Jersey and 21 inches on the NY side of the bay. I had over twenty fluke around 16-17 inches today:cry:

nice job Willy, I was out Tuesday afternoon. Headed first to the Shrewsbury Rocks but the wind was blowin pretty good and making it difficult to have a good time. caught 2 small sea bass....fished our way up the hook stopping here and there, couple dog fish and couple blue fish....of course as it may be obvious by now I still am somewhat of a novice at saltwater fishing.

oh...and a guy a know through work got an 11.5 pounder this weekend out in the channel...about 70 of water....sounds like you both know what you are doing.

Good catches willy!!
Like phat said, too around here it's rare to catch Blackfish or Flounder those sizes.

willy, i know ambrose channel can get snotty at times (most times). looks like you had a good day. i can taste those seabass from here. enjoy.
for those of you who have never eaten black seabass, i guess the closest thing you have down south would be like a sweet little grouper.
they are delicious. white a flaky.

we get them here in the northern gulf in the winter on the inshore wrecks,
excellent eating

I bet that is fun hauling up a big flattie in deep water like that. Good report Willy.
