Mixed bag bottom fish

[Brewlugger]

Sailed out of Manasquan before sunrise this morning. We made a couple of drifts on a piece in 85 ft to see if there was life. First fish up was a Boston Mackerel and we picked some Sea Bass and dropped the anchor. We had a steady bite with a good keeper ratio. Had some Ling in the mix along with Bluefish, Sea Robin, Spiny Dogs and a smooth Dog. My man Barry tried a Tog jig and got into an epic battle that the fish eventually won. Fish 1 Polish guy 0.

Sounds like a great trip Brew. Nice knuckle head there too!!

Thank you Gerry. It was good to get out. It wasn't lock and load and we didn't get any really big Sea Bass but it was a good steady bite and most were over 14 inches. What made the day great was when I got home I learned that the charter and party boats were finally allowed to fish again.
