All Morning... 3 hrs each side of HT. Tides were good on those days.

Was out there last night good topwater action, other than that slow and lots of small fish. Did catch a black seabass though, and I spied Niko out there, but he didn't see me.

which boat were you in? should have said hi

Scuttlebutt 08-08-2010 02:59 PM

Did not get out today...kinda breezy but curious if the bite is still on....anyone? When fish were not on top just drop a swimmer...find bait ball find blues...that simple.

silverardo 08-08-2010 04:54 PM

awesome fishing fri nonstop bite

ProfessorM 08-08-2010 05:02 PM

i am sure the comm guys will be out this week to vacuum them up, hopefully some the guys in my neck of the woods

niko 08-08-2010 05:11 PM

there aren't many comm fish in the mix. just a nice topwater bite. i've seen alot of topwater the last week on the southshore. water is cold and the fish are fiesty

mackenzie 08-08-2010 06:32 PM

I was there just before 7AM and the fish were on top just inside the gut along with about 20 or so boats. Also birds and boats working south of the L.I. bridge. Leaving about 8:30 saw more boats off the beach near the bath house-fairly close. Had a momentary thrill when I got cut off by a boat flying through the gut. I thought I was deep enough to be clear-wrong.

The bite was on again today if you were in the right place at the right time. RR and I (separate boats) had fun for about 90 min in the action. We boated 3 keepers in the mix of constant action.

Looked like they were feeding on baby macs 4-5" by the regurgitated fish.

Was on the blue catamaran, on a charter with some friends, it was nice to fish and not have to work the boat for once. You guys were like 70-80 yards from us before you shot back out of the gut.

A baby mac was snagged on a popper last night, like 6" long.

I'm STILL in search of my first blue this year.

I had luck Friday, Saturday, and Sunday off the top-water action, all bass. Most just short, but a few legals, as well as my best fly bass to date, 37+".

if anyone is going this evening and needs a deckhand I'm available.....

Scuttlebutt 08-09-2010 04:18 PM

I'm glad this thread got some replies. This board has been void of legit reports for a while. Hey, there are tons of fish out in this area right now...I have no problem sharing the "love." Even when it get's a little crowded. Part of the fun is hearing people on nearby boats screaming and yelling. Everyone loves a good blitz now and then.

I just hope it sticks around...I'm all out of vaca time so will have to wait for the weekends. With this much bait around things are looking great for a stellar fall run. The fish are really big right now...just think what they will be a month from now...share the Love!:love:

Monty 08-09-2010 06:58 PM

I couldn't tell what the bait fish were, I was just casting a top water plug, but my fish finder was lighting up and beeping like crazy. I've heard there was peanut bunker and others saying butter fish.

Raider Ronnie 08-09-2010 07:57 PM

Not for nothing but if this were a surf tread naming spots and areas LOTS of the guys on this board would be in an uproar and yelling spot burning !

niko 08-09-2010 08:45 PM

i'll be out there tomorow if anyone's around. niko on 69

Could not agree more. It's tough to spot-burn when the area is from Minot' s to the inner harbor. HAHA... pretty big spot!

Joe 08-10-2010 08:42 AM

Maybe the popularity of a fishing message board is waning as a social vehicle. I'm not sure message boards have an infinite life span.

Fish off the Race when there are 300 boats out there and at least a couple of boats with people fly fishing right in the thick of it... then you'll see how much fun a crowd of nitwits can be.

niko 08-10-2010 01:42 PM

it's crazy how many little macks are out there. i jigged up around 60 of them today and put them to good use. the bite has slowed in that area. let's hope these macks stick around i want to grab some and bridle them up as tuna bait - don't know if they will work but i'm gonna find out

Well said !
This guy with only 20 something starts a tread "come on people" & "share the love"
Another guy with only 6 post wants to yap about pogies and where they are in the harbor !
The harbor is loaded with enough nitwits now, only going to get worse !

I hear you Ronnie, I know you make your money out there, and we're just giving it away. I apologize for my 2 cents and have deleted my info.

Regards.

niko 08-10-2010 05:49 PM

ronnie - stop scaring off all the new guys :rotf2:. but seriously, reports are good and fun to read just don't be too specific. i'll be back out there tomorrow after work. where are all these blues everyone is talking about. i haven't caught one around the harbor

I have not seen the large blue schools (inside or outside) either in several trips but have picked off singletons.
