    Default Quick afternoon solo trip

    Headed down the marina at 2. Stopped for some beverages, bought a scratch off won 60 bucks on 10, figured I was in. Headed out not sure what I was going to do, either fluking up the bay or run down to the rocks and Long Branch. saw a few big clouds over keyport and opted for the bay. Didn't drop lines until after 3, but managed 5 for the box between 18 and 22 in 2 hours back in the slip by 7 after a long wait at the rail bridge. It seems like the bridge is a lot slower then usual in past years. Anyway, got a nice bag of filets for the BBQ on Saturday. Just missed some major storms from the NW as I was cleaning up, glad I stayed in the bay I would have been heading back just as the storms hit. Sorry no pics but I am sure you all know what fluke look like. Another Limit was right beside me doing well too.

    Nice! Looking to start adding solo trips to my agenda! Great being out on the water by yourself and catching a few fish tunes on, ONE can of beer, and a big smile!

    Default Solo fishing

    People think I'm crazy for heading out by myself....but I'm in a machine shop 50 hours a week. Some good tunes and a .8k drift makes for some good stress relief.

    PM me if anyone wants to swap cell #'s and we can share reports. I'll primarily be fishing Ambrose to the rocks through the rest of the season.
