Left the dock the Capt. wanted to stop for bass but with 4 ft. seas the Capt. changed his mind. Thank God. It was like crab fishing on the Bering Sea. Slow ride to the black fish grounds and it started to settle down but the wind stayed constant all day. Difficult anchoring with a very strong west southwest wind. Finally set up and the bite was on. Non stop action and the Capt. raised the size limit from 14 to 15"s. At around 12 noon it turned into catch and release until it was time to head home. Mike Lombardi (first ever black fish trip) from Jersey City, NJ thought he had the big bucks until Mr. October put him in his place which was 2nd place. Good to see you again Mike, study hard and let me know when you can make it again. Hot rod was Rebecca K., NYC, along with Roger, Evz, Mikey and Mr. October. Big Tom was in a rare slump but we all know he will bounce back next Sunday.
