179, got out tonight on friends new boat, from about 8 to 1130. Tried hailing SB on 69, but no repies. Didn't hear much else either on 69 -- pretty much dead all night (but not sure of radio range, is new). Here's the scoop: out of channel at Galilee, marked many fish (Shad?). Trolled plugs around Center Wall to east gap, nada, but marked a few fish. Drifted eels back from apex to west gap, nada, but again marked a few on bottom. Moved to Deep Hole at about 10 pm. Casting eels outside surf line at Carpenters and..
BINGO.

Between three of us, hit five nice fish. No scale, but my biggest was measured at 44" +/-, and is now my personal best fish

Smallest fish was about 34", and only two bluefish chops. Great night on the water, smooth swells, no moon
