Hey guys, how about you spend a couple of minutes letting us all know how your season went the year ? Besides fing out how the fishing went over a large area, we can get some posts on the site, come on guys if we don't use it , we're gonna lose it.

As far as fishing goes. I pretty much gave up on fluking due to the new regs. Hoping to head out the next few weekends to test my luck with the stripers. Did pretty good with the blues (not much to that). Caught a couple weakfish.

Overall, spent a lot of time working on the boat and not nearly enough time fishing. Better luck next year.

I didnt get to fish as much as in past years, but I did finally get to go tuna fishing. Like Leo, I am always sad when the season ends and cant wait until I pull the cover back off and get ready for another season/ I'm wondering if we have a warm winter will the big fish still be there early next year or not. Seems like this year the runs were early and stayed a little later than normal

Only went out six times and never got skunked - Best trip was down to the dump SE corner caught our limit on tuna, Stripers, and dolphin fish couple of nice bullheads.

Planned on a canyon trip but it never happened! Waters were not warm enough to warrent the trip! Fuel cost are to great to chance a trip like that!

As for fluke the season was cut short as was several other species. Seems like the seasons are shorter and shorter each year!

This season had to be one of the craziest ever. I never caught so many Bluefish, not that that were monsters, but they were in Barnegat Bay in great numbers all summer. Weakfishing was good, but not the numbers or size as compared to 2004. Stripers are off to a slow start this fall. Too bad I won't get a chance to go. I just finished winterizing the boats yesterday. Fluke is another story. All the nice ones were caught after the legal season. I never saw so many BIG FLUKE in OCTOBER. Now it is time to work on tackle maint. and dreaming and planning for next spring.

John,

You and Leo are making me a little nervous. I was planning to get another couple weeks out of the boating season. Here's to keeping my fingers crossed that the weather holds up.

Shawn,

I normally put the boat away around Thanksgiving, depending on the weather. This year we are so busy at work that I have work almost every Saturday since July. The work load is only getting bigger. I also have a number of family commitments and I have not been out for over a month it was time to put them away for the winter. Good luck. The stripers should be hitting strong any day now.

Tight Lines,

John
