Headed out with the father ands son trip of Steve and Dave this morning.Ran North to where we have been doing pretty good, running with a pretty good SE swell. That got the best of Dave pretty quick once the anchor came tight.He hung in the trying to shake it off, while Steve and I Put some fish in the box, And I released another 10 pound slobOnce we had enough to make a few dinners we pulled the plug and headed back in instead of punishing Dave any longer.Tough kid: was already eating a sandwich by the time I took the fish off the boat, hard to believe it was over 50 again today on the last day of the year 2011Wishing EVERYONE a safe and Happy New Year from the REELMUSIC crew

Redemption trip 12/30
Ran out today with Capt Rich to get in on some last minute togging before the limit changes Sunday. First fish in the boat a solid 9 pounder followed by an easy 2 man limits of really nice tog. No need to measure today.What a difference a day makes from Brutal cold tough fishing yesterday to a big chew wearing just a sweatshirt all day. Nice day on the water for late December

Xmas eve Togging
Had the Del Carlo gang out today for a quick togging trip . Tough conditions up north with the wind cranking but we went looking to try for some Big tog. Young Edward boated the nicest one at 8 1/2 pounds, a few other nice ones were dropped , bunch 4-5 pounders . Total was 12 tog hitting the cooler for the ride home to freezer land. Was surprised to see very LITTLE bass life inshore today. Picked a short under some working birds on the way back in but most of the area that has been producing looked like a desert

Windy togging 12/23
Made a quick run out this morning with Jimmy and Johnny to do some togging. Made a stop at the rocks to jig some bass , but since they were small we quickly headed off to the sticky stuff. Tog bite was slow, but we were able to box 4 keepers each before the wind REALLY started to howl. Decided that the forcast of it laying down wasnt going to happen and ran back down the beach at slack tide to advert a bumpy ride later. Fun day as usual. Biggest tog was Jimmy's at 8 1/2 pounds Dont want to think about the one I lost because of not retying when I knew I should.

Great bassing Tough togging 12/18
Headed out this morning with Jimmy and Johnny hoping for a repeat of yesterdays tog bite. Found some one had pillaged my crabs last night , but we still had a bucketfull and figured it would be all we needed, but the bite was very scratchy and the bucket had alot of empty shells in it, and as Murrphys law would suggest we ran out of bait as the bite got a little better this afternoon . We had a bunch of just legal tog to start the day, which we elected to throw back hoping to fill a cooler with nice roaster size tog. Hindsite says we should have kept those fish since they were legal but we were happy with the 9 nice tog we did keep for the freezer. biggest three today right at 7 pounds.started to head back to the barn at 2 to find some really good bird life, and jigged a bunch of stripers and bluefish (all released today)as fast as the jigs hit the bottom you had a bass on. Alot of fun to finish out a cold day on the water. Pulled the boat back into the slip just as the sun was setting.
