NICE tuna! Bait or trolling?

[stripermania]

Been following the NC reports. A 101 incher is a big tuna, nice job.

[plugcrazy]

Great reports gents. JB you are a true fishing Warrior!

[lostatsea]

Nice job, keeps the juices flowing. Should be out this weekend and hope to have a report for you guys.

I have not been feeling well lately. Enjoying the reports and effort. Thank you for posting and congratulations.

^^^^^ hey, glad to see you back in the game. Look forward to seeing you down on the Island this year.

Welcome back clamchucker. Best of health to you.

Fished the back last night on incoming tide before the rain. Two small runts on rubber and light jig. I was fishing with just a hoodie on, no extra clothes. It's been a while since it was like that in March.

Thanks guys!!
I think JB is still upset about the 3 year old shark chum DS gave him LOL!!!

3 yrs old are you serious? Must have been foul.

Thanks for bringing that up, guys. If the story has not already been related here, we need to document it. I think it could be highly exaggerated.

Awesome report. Seems like all of the fishermen are smiling except for the one in the Orange HH overalls. Is that J Barbosa? not trying to start trouble, just wondering

Hah! that's crazy because I was thinking the same thing?
will the real JB please stand up?

Funny stuff. not trying to pile on either, did notice that the dude in orange looks a little bit like a poster on the post office wall. JB that's not you, right?
Great reports. x2 what fnm said, nice to see some fish caught in legal waters. The PP has been way too crowded this winter.

I'm sorry he finally revealed himself. Next ..........someone will be placing a GPS tracker on his vehicle and following him, instead of finding fish on their own..........Similar to when Rich Swiss and crew got so inundated by people asking for early season spots and following them......they went a bit underground.........

I had an idea a while ago, But have been too busy to post.....
"The Saga of JBarbosa...." Look for it to come alive........soon.

North winds have been howling all day. A few days ago I was thinking of fishing but no way no how until it gets warmer. Kudos for the reports gents. I know the striped bass are starting to stir.

Boat fish don't count

[fishinmission78]

I used to say that about boat fish. Those big tuna definitely do count. How else could you catch them? Nice job JB

Is that a boat?

[fishinmission78]

I keep my fish fillets, clams and beer in a refrigerator in the garage.
Saves a lot of hassles and stress with the old lady.
