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.

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.

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+".

Our only mac of the day was caught on a deadly #^&#^&#^&#^&! Tinker size.

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.

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.
