The Rips are On Fire!!!!!!!! 4/14

[Ugly Mug 2]

Well since my boat is in NC being repowered I had to charter the Clean Sweep for a sanity trip by my lonesome!(you know leave the cell in the truck kind of morn!) So I call my fishing friend Ahab(thats Tim) and said I had thur. morn free Can you get me out for the first time! He Told me he was waiting for me to call because the setup was perfect something about the Nova Scotia currents divided by our water temp over the air temp then the affect of the NE w%&d and no pressure on the fish down there should make the rip fishing excellent!! What I said and what I thought were 2 different things (like you friggin wacko to much time off this winter!) Soooooo we left the dock at 930 and hit the first rip darn if my boy don't hook up in 10 seconds Im thinking lucky dude probably the only one well see and Ill have to hear about it all morning! Not to be I hooked up too~! We proceded to catch on every single drift the fish averaging 29 to 32 inches we caught 5 tweeners and 2 over 34! 3 hours 31 fish missed a bunch too! Charctruse 1oz andus with fresh mackeral was the ticket! We did get 1 fat one on a live herring no takers on the cut herring! So I finally got my chaffed thumb back and did it in our favorite spots in the rips! Can't wait to get my rig back with the new engines Ill certainly be ready to breakem in! Thanks for an awesome start to my season Tim Great thinking ( I still think hes nuts! Maybe part bass just don't know waht part! :D ) Have at it boys the rips are on fire!

From the little bit I could get from trying to listen in to Timmy's cell phone conversations the other day, he's been chomping at the bit to hit the rips again smile.gif I'm glad to see he got his wish!

Thanx for the report Bob!

P.S Timmy, take the Atkins bar wrappers out of your carhart jacket pockets ;)

[Ugly Mug 2]

Thanks Ron Darn you didn't have to go and give away our secret bait now every ones knows about those wrappers and they stay on the hook real well just keep the light color out! ;)

Way to hit'em Ugly Mug. I've seen the clean Sweep out there many times last fall and he sure does put his guys on fish. Great to hear the rips are heaten up!!

[Partnership]

Wow Bob- way to get on em. That's the best rips report I've heard in a long time. Yipee!!

You just made my day!!!

[Striper101]

NICE!!!!!!!! Glad to hear that Bob! I'm glad you caught too, otherwise I'd never hear the end of the story! :D ;)
I knew when I couldn't get a hold of Timmy today that he must have been out there!

BTW, As far as I know Timmy still has Fri open so give him a call! Now you have 2 places to chose from.

I've caught nearly 30 with Timmy already this season, but not in the rips. Now you've given me a new jones and I cant wait to get out again.
(Timmy is not nuts, he's eccentric)

[Ugly Mug 2]

How about deranged! I did hold him underwater and he said he could see clearly!? I should have checked for gills but I'll leave that to Paul! LOL
I just checked the rips nice bunch of gannets on the 720 line you know there eating good right now with this breeze wish my boat was here!

[NJAngler Bill]

Bob, thanks for the update. I'm in the same "boat" as you, new boat is getting ready but I've got another week until I can splash her. Going nuts!

[Ugly Mug 2]

Bill was down there an hour ago and the gannets were still working hard I get the feeling theres a party going on and we were'nt invited LOL! What kind of boat did you get?

[Bud H]

Bob sounds like your putting a hell of boat and a hell of a team together good luck with the boat. I've met Jim a couple of times seems like a great additon to the team .We just got done putting the finising touches on the new Undisputed 36 contender with triple 275 Verados the only thing we forgot to install was the rear view mirror . SEE you on the trail

Bob, Parker 23SE with all the trimmings. Should be just perfect for what we need a boat to do.

Bud thanks those Verados are awesome By the way good thing you didn't get the mirror it only works when someone is behind you! You'd never get to see our boats and that would be ashame! LOL

Yeah, Brian, it'll be set up pretty much exactly like Gene's. Quite a bit of custom stuff and it's taking time. Just killing me.
