Bass
Fishing on the Soaker - Montauk, NY- September 15, 2007
Back
to home
Not much time to
write up officially…
Crew chartered the
Soaker on Saturday morning. Snotty conditions and everyone was over-served night
before at the bar. Caught our bait, porgies. That was fun in itself!
Loaded up the live well .
Fished for a few
hours with nothing, right off the Point. Then,…..bam! my rod bends
down to the water, pick it up and spooled the reel! (Rookie mistake,
hack!) Mate grabs reel and sorts out the line as best he could.
Hands it back and I’m in! big bass, 3 run offs and gaffed. Pat
hooks up too while I’m on my fish. 20lber
Gordo hooked up
shortly after….fish at surface…leader breaks (MATE grabs and holds the
leader while capt gaffed fish in!!!!) SAVE!
Made it back to
the dock, wind picking up stronger than ever! (Good luck afternoon
trip!?!) EXCELLENT Capt. Harvey and Mate Ray. Made for a memorable
trip. Got a freezer full of bass now for fall/winter, wife appreciates my
hunter/gatherer instinct.
Great day.
