Any MS tourney updates? - Striper Talk Striped Bass Fishing, Surfcasting, Boating

JFigliuolo · 10-21-2006, 01:29 PM

Anyone know if anything decent has been weighed in yet?

RIJIMMY · 10-22-2006, 10:23 AM

Fished from 7pm Saturday to 3am Sunday.
Ran into some big bunker in a channel of a b-way. Snagged and live lined 'em but only got a few chops in half from blues. Landed a 30" bass around 11pm on an eel. The rest of the night was dead, no hits on eels. I'm beat.

Took a ride to a breachway this morning, birds and boats all over, major feed going on out of casting range.
How did the rest of you guys do?

It was beautiful but cold night, alot of shooting stars. Did some live lining with no results. Changed location and did some chunking for a couple more hours, had one hit, probably a skate

seeing how some guys further up the beach were cornering the market on skates.

The cookout / gathering was a good time, really great to meet up and gab with some new and old friends. Katie and I will be looking forward to next year.

BEETLE · 10-22-2006, 04:08 PM

The breakfast at the Andrea was great also.

I'm sorry I did not make it to the cookout, got caught up chasing some fish.

I had a blast. I didn't realize how much fun this tournament is. All sorts of clubs fishing together and joining in for a great cause. I left around 4:30 sat. S-B had 31lbs for 3 blues I think. I had a decent bass from the beach during the big blitz on Sat but didn't want to weigh in a teen size fish, maybe I should have? Those 10 lb+ blues are some pretty impressive creatures and put ip a great fight from the beach. Wish I could have stayed longer at the cookout but hadn't slept and needed to get to work. I had a great time seeing everyone again.

Favorite part of the weekend was hooking a good blue and handing the rod to a 70 year old Belgian Man here on Vacation to fight. He was ruined for the little fish he said he catches back home.

Vic thanks for the lift and the mugging.
Stew, any paint scrapes?

Congrats to "RISSA" For winning, with the amount of guys crawling around it was a great acomplishement and for a good cause !Another member of our club kevin Johnson also caught the largest bass a fat 33lber! Congrats Kevin!

JohnR · 10-22-2006, 07:12 PM

We came in 6th, missed 5th by a couple pounds and were a couple fish aways from 4th and not more than a few away from 1st. If we were to put a full press effort into this next year and organize ourselves as many of the other clubs do (arrangements for lodging and such, marking the calendar earlier in the year) we could do some real effort.

Lots of the other clubs give this a good push and have a good time as it is for a great cause.

Thumbs up for all that showed for S-B. Big thumbs up for those that organize this event to support a charity that can use more support

This tourney raised in excess of $1100 for MS this weekend, good work by all

tattoobob · 10-22-2006, 07:33 PM

Congrats to the winners and S-B for putting in a great effort

shadow · 10-22-2006, 07:46 PM

Had a good time meeting a few of the guys at the cook out and the breakfast and it was good to help put some fish on the board for s-b all in all I think s-b did a good job for the size of some of the other clubs involved.

Finlander · 10-23-2006, 11:08 AM

Nice bass Kevin, the wind was tough on Friday night, Congrats. We hit a couple of fish early Sat. morning wind had drop a bit by than. Yes Jim McKeough is think about add another weight in off the east, he talked to me about it Friday afternoon. Was a fun weekend my club ended up second and MDA was the big winning

reelecstasy · 10-23-2006, 12:08 PM

It was great fishing with JohnR, Basic PP, BobBike, Hardcore from Shore, Beetle, and a few others who screen names ecscape me...
Tynan19, thanks for the call...
Great seeing everyone at the infused cheese soy burger shindig, The soup was killer as always!
It was a fun weekend, I didn't go large but it was certainly a good time for a great cause...
It's always a great time wetting a line with good people/friends, thank you...

SirWinston · 10-23-2006, 07:00 PM

Definitely agree with having more than one weigh in station and/or open more hours - I landed a 16 lb'er in the channel at 9.30 pm Saturday, headed off to Weekapaug (okay, NOW I know to take the sign to Misquamicut - seems a bit strange that there wasn't a single sign for Weekapaug!!!

), and got there for just after 10 pm. Shut tight. Back home for a nice Dallas Dhu (whisky), put the fish on ice. Had bragging rights next morning with the family - the fish was almost as tall as my 3 year old - then got over for the morning weigh-in.......at 9.15. Too late. Again. Kinda put a bit of a damper on it, really. Otherwise, had a blast and will look forward to next year's tournament.

RIJIMMY · 10-23-2006, 01:04 PM

I must have it all wrong...I was out for 8 hours Saturday night and except for one b-way, I only saw 2 guys at the other spots I visited!

Jimmy - Saturday night - 6 trucks in one spot and 5 in another. That was before midnight.

RIJIMMY · 10-23-2006, 01:26 PM

Those were probably the spots that hold fish. I generally try to avoid those....

Reelecstacy-Thanks for the ride on the island.
