Started out at 0615 with Fred, Bob and Ed from Applied Air to hit the weak fish. Went to the back of the Reach in Pea soup and started working the 18-26 can.........results two nice Fluke.....NO WEAKS.......a moderate size fleet was around us and not a fish landed.

Ran back East and hit the 8, 6, 4 cans again NODDA........ran to chapel Hill Channel...one small Sea Bass....NODDA on the Weaks.......read fish in all locations just no bite.

Deceided to drift the rip for Stripers.......1 Bird no Bass.

Ran Down to the Rocks and the southern edge of the Sandy Hook Reef, hooked up over 40 Sea Bass, Boys keep only enough to have a meal.

Being as fishing started so lousy, extended the trip and ran back up to the Reach and Chapel Hill, results 1 6" Weak.........what a differance a few days makes, beginng of the week ya couldn't keep them off the Hook.

Did finally get to meet Luna Sea as we drifted by each other in the Reach
