Went up to Montauk late last night with a couple of friends. We went out at 3am today on the Susie E2. There were a total of eight fisherman on the boat.

We anchored up at 6am and never had to make another move. Everyone easily limited out and we called it a day by 10:45am. Clams outproduced jigs. We had two periods of lock and load fishing (from 6am to 7am and from 9am to 10am.)

Nothing huge today but it was still lights out fishing.

Also, it never laid down as much as the forecast had predicted.

I will post some pictures in a little bit.

WAS GOING TO SAIL TONIGHT FOR BLOCK ISLAND VIA BELMAR ON A HEAD BOAT BUT DUE TO BAD WEATHER IT GOT CANCELED. I SHOULD HAVE WENT TODAY. CONGRATS ON THE GOOD CATCH.:thumbsup:

Me too

I was booked on the V** from Pt. Pleasant to go to block island. I'm as sick as the next guy (probably more) but there's no way in hell anybody should be running 140 miles in 40 kts.

Thanks for the report and congrats on the catch. One day soon I hope to wet a line again and feel the tug of a fish from the deep!

Montauk Cod Photos

Here are some pictures from yesterday's slaughter.

One of our victims with some bait

Some of the tubs of cod. Remember that we had just eight guys fishing.

A small pile of the end product

Pictures of my friends' Dan and Rich holding up some of the smaller Cod.

Here is a very unflattering picture of me resting up for the long drive home
Thanks Dan.

Peter nice report, did you sail on the Susie 2 as a open boat trip? whats does he charge?

 

[JoeyZac]

Nice job. Love the pics. :thumbsup:

He does run shared charters at $125 pp, plus tip. Not the fastest or most elegant boat in the world but I will definately go out with Captain Burt again.

He knows the waters very well and has a great network. Also, a nice guy.

I just saw the latest Montauk forecast for this week. Right now it looks like Tuesday is the only fishable day.

Time will tell.
