Damn, I think I need to go on a diet!:D


Here is one of Mike!
Have others but they ended up in video form for some strange reason( like my fingers I guess?):smash: :smash: :smash:

I think we should start calling Mike........" Captain Freak" from now on! He sure can put you on fish! From codfish to sharks to the many bass we caught on Monday night( and the 3 bluefish........:smash:)
He definitely has his _hit together! '

Oh did I mention he paints a mean plug too!! Well you all knew that already!

huge rollers comming in, outside was not nice.
we lucked out gettin' the bait quick outside. so the 1/2 hour or so we were out there wasn't too bad.
tons of bass though,couldn't keep the bait down for more than 5 seconds:)two at a time almost every drift:)
lots of peanuts, tinker macks and tinker herring arround the boat slips too.

good job... I feel like I haven't fished local much lately... a trip to westport, a weekend on nantucket... no boat fishing over labor day...

oh well, I'll be out alot over the next couple weeks... taking two weeks off to do nothing but fish.

starts right about now.

09-24-2004, 03:24 PM
there out there for sure!

i took iwannanotherkeeper out last night. we got about 8 or 9 keepers in the dark.
fishing was slow on dead high slack tide, but once the water started moving we were into pretty decent action.

Nice seeing you guys last night. Thanks for the bait. I put 6 fish in the boat after you moved out - all shorts - oh well better than riding the couch. I was dragging them up and down the shoreline. Be careful Mike all the shore guys might be buying boats!:D

You've heard of penis envy, well it's boat envy and if my boat sells before this fall run is over I'll have a big case of it for sure. I'm hoping to get in a couple of days over this weekend.

Boat fish ?
Do they count or dont they??

Well the way I fished with Freak I think they count!

7' St Croix freshwater pitchin' stick with a 6500 abu.

Now if we were using heavy action live bait sticks and big Penn conventionals I would agree they wouldnt count!


Mike they will count on Monday too wont they!!:D

Iwannakeeper
09-25-2004, 10:21 AM
Russ - I was using a 7ft Cortland fresh bait conventional stick with an abu 6500 as well. Even the little guy I caught stripped line and put up a good fight.

we were out today (my dad and I) and got a few... not good numbers but I managed a 20lber and my dad got a decent keeper.

We were out last night too and got a dozen fish, but no size... just one keeper.

I'm finding things slow south of the harbor... need to try some new water.

thefishingfreak
09-27-2004, 08:44 PM
same here schoolie monster.
things were slowwwwww.
tides are honkin' with the full moon.
but we waited it out and got some nice fish.
lost more than i care to mention though:smash:

I did notice the tides were strong... usually the wind determines the drift, but the tide was movin' us pretty good today. We had some half hearted runs today on herring. They were peckin' 'em, but not really staying with it.

We also found small blues inside to do some light tackle topwater stuff for some fun, but that wasn't sustained like I like to see in the fall... and no schoolies up top either day. Granted we didn't do alot of searching.

Lots of bait though... tons.

I hope Wed isn't as bad as they are predicting.

Here's our best from today.
