I boat fished BI on Saturday, the largest was a 42" fish, I managed 4 bass in about 90mins most were in the mid-30" range. It was a slow day by BI standards. I was fishing eels deep on a downrigger, other boats dragging tubes and unmbrellas seemed to be getting alot of Blues. The water temp was still in the 57-59 degree mark which is good news... Sorry can't help you on the surf reports...

Pretty quiet from the beach for the last couple of days. Biggish surf and high tides have the south and west sides pretty churned up and murky. A few reasonable fish supposedly being caught around midnight. A few schoolies on the west side during the day. Someone said they had success drifting eels from a boat. Gotta believe that they're going to be hungry and move in when things settle a bit though...

Yep, somebody's gotta do it. Moved the family out two years ago and renovated the Old Town Inn. Innkeeping's really started to interfere with my fishing though...
