I would have to catch a 125lb fish just to make it look big when I hold them up!
Seriously though, Starting on Monday the 7th thru Saturday night I had 6 fish over 30 pounds and two over 35lbs. Umpteen 20 to 25 pounders plus smaller fish along a non descript chunk of beach that I rarely if ever see anyone else. The fish were picky, even the little ones. They wanted stubby needles in white. I went through all my Gags 5 inch needles, several of Stetzko's small needles and a couple Gibbs Stubbys, white was by far tyhe best color and if it had a flag on the ass end it was better. Best thing was you would just cast into the wind, close the bail and you were on.
I had not had fishing like that in twenty odd years, fish were bumping into my legs, swirling in the surf s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g bait. A sound I had not heard in that volume since the glory days of Monomoy. I was joined by Sauerkraut the last good night. He started with a couple ten to 15 pound fish then wham, a 36.5lber, his next was 25 even the it just went on from there.
I fished there the last couple nights and since the wind change all I could manage was two school bass about 20 incehs long, no more bait no more fish. Goods things never last I guess.
I was truly blessed last week. The one good thing is that my right arm is no longer sore.:uhuh: |
