captains charters and customers what are they saying

[DarkSkies]

There is a small trend developing among some of the Montauk Captains.
Just read this report. Dark hope it's ok to give some publicity to this Capt. Capt Tom of the Mystique. Here is his report.

Nitestrikes, that's encouraging. The honest Captains out there with decades under their belts know we're in trouble. I mentioned earlier that Montauk Captains have developed the hybrid bottom fish/bass trips because the quantity of bass available at Montauk, even for those fishing the Rips, has dropped off significantly in the last few years. These people are self-aware and doing their best to save the fishery.

to them and others. Feel free to post links or quotes when you people come across info like this. I would be glad to give them some free publicity.

Capt Ron's report today.

Had Bucktail bob and friend Pete out today for an all out bass blitz of big fish. Had 21 fish up to the high 30's on live bait and jigs. Released all but two 32" fish. I am advocating the release of big fish whenever possible.
Next openings Sun. Afternoon, Mon., and Tues.

Here's another one, dark. Capt Art of Halfback Charters.

we missed yesterdays report for Charles mcgillick and family.
they requested no trolling wire. We had to wait until the tide started to run and after that it was a bail job of big cows from 25 to 45lbs.

they kept one per man and released the rest. some into the 40lb range.

I don't think keeping two of these cows per person is good for anyone.
my customers were in agreement.

Awesome and congrats to the Capts'! They are crushing bass at montauk right now. Great to see some who don't want to put them all in the fish box.

Capt Ron. This guy is on a roll. His charter didn't even keep one fish and he himself did not keep one. Good deal.


Had Michael Zhu out last evening for the twilight trip on the Capt. Ron. Mr.Zhu was visiting from Hong Kong and had never wet a line in the Atlantic. In one of life's ironies, Mr. Zhu singlehandedly landed17 striped bass with several into the low 40 pound range. Since he was returning to Hong Kong the next day, he had no need of fish and all were released. I have had many friends fish for years without a 40 pound fish.I guess you need to be a vacationing tourist.
The crazy bass bite continues.
