Pioneer III

What a day if you were a duck. Weatherman said showers early morning WRONG. Rained most of the morning but the fishing turned on. The star of the day was Big Tom with his limit and a bluke fish, yes a blukefish, you had to be aboard to understand that one. Long time coming for him. Congrats to you. Next up is jigging Jack with 4 including a pool winning 8 1/4 lber. and a blukefish which his neighbor is going to enjoy. Nice going Jack. Roger and Mike M. had 3, Mike had a contender but came up shy with a 7 1/2 lber. What a difference a week makes. Right Mike ? The Legend and Cathy M. had 2 each (I hope that's right). The Capt. added his two cents to the cooler with an 8lber. Thanks again to Evz for netting all those big fish. The same great crew will be out again next week.

Yes it was hot especially when the breeze quit. Hot rod went to Cathy M. from Berkeley Heights, NJ with a limit by 11;05 also looked like she had a contender for the bucks. Jigging Jack and the Legend added 3 each to the box. Roger M. boxed 2 and bagged the big bucks. Big Tom contributed one and was looking for donations of which the Capt. tossed him one. Now for Mike M. he stood at the rail all day under extreme heat but could not manage a keeper. It happens to the best Mike. Next week may be yours. It's like playing the lottery "hey !!!! you never know". The same great crew will be here next week.

Another nice day on the water. Roger started of with 2 keepers by 7:25 and waited until the afternoon to add another making him high hook. Next the Legend and Jigging Jack added 2 each to the cooler followed by Big Tom putting one in late in the afternoon. Capt. Andy added 2 for the cooler and generously gave away. The biggest surprise of the day was the Melillo's who didn't add anything but kept the shorts coming all day. The Legend managed to get the first legal weakfish of the year and donated it to Cathy and Mike for dinner tonight. As always Evz was right there with the net all day. Thanks Evz. We will be at it again next week.

Great day to be on the Pioneer III. Weather !!!! Simply perfect. Fishing was real good but the keeping was not what we were use to. No big fish but good action all day. Hot rod went to Cathy as every time this reporter look to the bow she had a short coming over the rail. Cathy M. and Jigging Jack were the leaders of the pack with 3 each. Followed by Roger M. had 2 and the Legend, Big Tom, Michael M. had 1 and even the Capt. threw 1 in the cooler. The big bucks went Roger with a 4 lb whistle fish and I mean right when the whistle blew he hooked it. And Evz was on the money with the net all day.
