Is anyone out there catching fish? I went out with Mike on his boat Ave Maria on Thursday. He was kind enough to invite me out with him after his charter had cancelled. Mike hooked a nice bass, about 15# I think, early on. Later I boated my first ever Cod, a 24" keeper. In the cooler he went, that was nice. Caught a bluefish, and discovered that I have some hook setting issues that need to be addressed. I don't get to do much boat fishing. Missed a couple of nice bass when I missed the hook set, my bad. In case Team SeaMonkey is curious, there were honeybuns aplenty. A great day though and thanks again to Big Mike.

Later in the day, went out slingin' eels with my buddy Joe and Caught my first eel fish of the season, a short 34" with a nice fat belly. (smallest fish I ever caught on an eel) Nice to get that first take of the season though, I love the bump and run. So a great day, (and long) after all was said and done.

Anyone else out catching?
