View Full Version : Chatham fish
saltyric 09-19-2013, 06:49 AM Fished off chatham yesterday amongst the crowds. Managed to jig up two fish. The first was 67" the second was a bit smaller. While negotiating the second fishes release, it went crazy, busted the line, and my jigging rod.....Need to work on that!!!!

Mr. Sandman 09-22-2013, 07:08 PM Well done...How was the bite out there that day with the trollers? I was going to go but the day before it sounded pretty slow...so I stuck close to home. I hope yours is a sign of the bigger fish starting to move in.
I have a trip planned for wed. (if all goes as planned)
PRBuzz 09-22-2013, 07:25 PM Trying to find that PERFECT weather day where I can get out to the Sword in my 215CC since that is the only place the BFT seem to be hanging out this year.
Mr. Sandman 09-22-2013, 07:32 PM You got big-ones buzz.

You can make that run for sure on a nice day.

When we got out there (after a 90plus mile run) there was some chatter on the radio of a few fish trolled up. A buddy of ours was trolling. Only thing he got a a bluedog on a ballyhoo! After we got our first fish, he stopped and started to jig. They apparently went 5 for 6 with fish between 50 and 70 inches. Our second fish was a bit smaller than the first, but didnt get a good measure on it due to the "rough release" . I heard thursday and friday was pretty dead out there, and then saturday it picked up again.
Mr. Sandman 09-23-2013, 07:16 AM thanks for that report...
90+ miles...jezz I might have gone south. Nice going anyway, that is a very nice fish you have there. I will bring my jigging stuff.
saltyric 09-23-2013, 07:49 AM Thx.... Yeah, it was a long as run. 220 round trip miles by the time the day was done. Still worth it!!!!!!!!!!! Good luck. The 310 Pt Jude Deep Force in Silver worked for us.......
