Annual Sea Bass Trip

[alumacraftjoe]

Good luck to all on the trip. Haven't fished in saltwater since I moved to Indiana in 4th grade. Spent many days on Barnaget (spl?) Bay with my Grandfather mostly running blue crab traps, but doing a lot of fishing too while growing up in jersey.

Hey Jim did you already make your reservations at the Sea Esta IV? You got the $30 deal right? I think I'm going to get a room there for saturday night.

I just made the reservation....no backing out now! It was $38 bucks for the room.

Shizzy I've never puked on a boat, and I've been on my share of head boats with puking idiots, with others walking around making puking noises to try to get others to puke. Of course....theres a first for everything :wink:
I am so pumped to go on this trip, I will be happy with a nibble....it has been too long since I caught a fish.

I just reserved a room at the Sea Esta IV for saturday night. I will be heading straight from the Timonium Fishing Expo to the hotel, this should be a good weekend

We should meet up and have a beer and watch the Pats game if your up for it!

I should be arriving down there around 3-4 PM anyway.

Go to Irish Eyes in Lewes if you guys go out to watch the game. You should both really just get some sleep and rest your bass catching arm, it will be a very long day. *













* I mean a long day of watching me catch all the fish - go ahead drink your skulls off, you will have plenty of rest on the boat

 

[Bryan_VA]

I'd probably be up for that Jim. I was originally planning on watching the Skins game this weekend but they decided to let Seattle beat them on Saturday so a Pats game would be ok.
I haven't been to Irish Eyes since they rebuilt it, bet it looks pretty good now.
We're gonna have to show these PA and NJ guys how to fish. 8)

Yes, you show us how to fish; we will show you how to catch fish!


I sense a few side bets - bring lots of cash

Good idea. By the end of the day my arms will be sore from reeling in c-bass and yours will be sore from constantly opening your wallet.

Although I would still rather sea bass fish, this past Monday another boat caught this where we will be fishing:


1.5 lbs off the world record

23lbs, 5oz. 33" in length, and 24" girth

 

[Captain Ahab]

Seas 5 to 8 feet, and you are going fishing? Is that a normal thing, seems kinda nuts to me, but hell i am just a freshie :wink:

No - that is the forecast for offshore Sea Bass fishing, we are staying inshore (with 20 miles of land) where the seas are forecasted as much calmer

And you are a notsofreshie! 8)

 

[mr.fish]

Good luck wherever you guys go sunday. Wish I could be there, and meet all you guys in person. Maybe next trip.

Good luck on your trip...

I think I should be declared the winner of the puke fest those sea would have caused even the great shizzy to toss his chicken lol
