Re: Puosu 4
 

Good luck gentlemen. It truly pains me to not be on the trip. I am already looking forward to next year.

Re: Puosu 4
 

It pains me that we're not going to have your breakfast casserole to chow down on

Re: Puosu 4
 

No I don't..........Lady Di does and I haven't done push-ups since I started growing it.

Re: Puosu 4
 

Will miss you Brett but truth be told.........I've been having chest pains since my 3rd helping of your "Casserole" last week. Should be called "Breakfast Cholesteral"

but it was good


Ran into Reel Nauti @ 5:15 in 7/11 this morning. Told him "Bad news........I'm losing my voice just in time for tomorrow's trip"..........He replied "and the bad news is???????????"

Re: Puosu 4
 

Nice job Mile Congrats and great thing to release her alive.

Re: Puosu 4
 

Stellie, Jigamafish Joe and I started the day at the OB Diner for breakfast. Joe went to Fish Monger and Stellie and I to Mimi.

Left the dock @ 6:30 and headed north. We set up outside a group of boats off Elberon and picked some keepers. Chad caught and Ray and I skated to keep him warm (yeah, brisk to say the least). Chad pulled another and Ray BOATED his big fish of the day (his ONLY fish) while I missed a bite. THEN Ray got waffled.......set the hook and started reeling. He got the fish off the bottom but this fish was MAD. After just seeing how his GRUMPY'S CUSTOM ROD (shameless plug) handled the 7+#er just a few minutes early, I KNEW this was a PIG. Boston Pete on one side and Chad on the other with me peeking around Chad as the fish thumped and thumped. Got a couple more turns on it and then BINK and the line goes slack. Pete's jaw dropped and Ray's face went BLANK. We now have a New Momoi Slicer. It may be great for tuna but this is the third fisherman I've seen (me and Boston Pete being the others) destroyed by this line. It nicks fast and fails under pressure.

We made a move north and inshore to an area Captain Kenny calls the Meat Market because it's yields so many nice fish.

Rob B pulled a nice 5#er and DMac one around 6# plus some others around the boat. A few dinks came over to my left as I tossed a full white crab on a single Gami 4/0 and it got pecked 2x. Then I got the right bite to swing on and it had very little resistance. I thought I had another dink. THEN it got mad when she released she was hooked and my GRUMPY'S CUSTOM ROD (shameless plug) starting pounding. I gained line on my Newell 220 (Thank You Lefty Reeler) and the fish head up to the bow. To cat-calls from my FRIEND Stellio "Woof Woof - Doggie", I got the fish to the surface just as it wrapped around another line (KurtisB?). Mate Chris scooped the net underneath and plopped my P.B. on the deck. 11 pounds 7oz. Put her in water right away and waited through the day for someone to beat it.

D Mac, D Rod, Stellie, Scooter among others caught other NICE fish (or rolled them) but my fish held up to take the title and pool.

Re: Puosu 4
 

Congrats Lab. You deserve it for all the work you put in to these trips. Wish I was there to witness it. Oh yeah...thanks to you and Tats for giving me a moment of LOUDNESS on the prelim.

Re: Puosu 4
 

Thanks to all for fishing 2 Sundays in a row and all the supplies:

1. Kenny and Chris from the Mimi
2. D Mac for the great Roast Beef sandwiches and condiments
3. Scooter for the plates and utensils
4. Foul Hook for the Pasta, Meatballs and Neckbones in "Gravy" (or is it Sauce?)
5. MVP for the ice and pie
6. FinS for the drinks
7. Rayman and Sea Soda Charters for the "Joe"
8. Bagel Boy Gene for the bagels and condiments (both weeks)
9. The Artist formerly known as JollyMan for the Birthday Cake

Hope I didn't forget anyone???

Re: Puosu 4
 

not one mention of the shrimpman?

Congrates Mike, well deserved for all the hard work you do putting these tirps together. will be out next year!

Re: Puosu 4
 

IN

Re: Puosu 4
 

Congratulations LAB, really nice fish.

Re: Puosu 4
 

Things I learned today:

Da Judge will add anything I forget

1. Someone will make a New Years Resolution but gave a REAL GOOD reason why he isn't adhering to it just yet.
2. Boston Pete has magic powers. Let's See - Secaucus to Keansburg to Secausus and he's not even there to help???
3. Just because it's your 54th Birthday, that doesn't mean you're not gonna be The Bug (as opposed to being the Windshield). OUCH!!!
4. Scooter to MVP "You gotta get one of these strap-ons. Feel how hard IT is" as MVP does. OMFG *
5. It's better to be chased than it is to be chasing.
6. A warm cabin is a Godsend on cold days.
7. Wearing finger-less gloves can be used as an excuse for missing a big fish.
8. When a TRAY of brownies is UNCUT..........you can eat half of it and say with a clear conscience "I only had ONE piece"
9. We have some of the nicest people on this site
10. Winning is much better than having to type "Ask Gerry Z, he's a much better black fisherman than I"







* relax - talking about a pump that diabetics used to administer insulin

Re: Puosu 4
 

Congrats Lab!!!!! Nice fish

Re: Puosu 4
 

Congrats to Mikey for boating his personal best Tog today and great job on the release! Glad you caught it on your Grumpy Custom! Had a blast today with the boys. Fishing was slow but we picked and plucked. As Mike said, the Momoi cost me my fish and it was a big one to say the very least (I don't wanna know how big).. Never had my seeker bend like that on a tog. Oh well I'll get her Tuesday.. Thanks again Mikey for organizing these past two trips and I look forward to winner next year PUOSU. :D

Re: Puosu 4
 

If you want to "no" anyhing about Blackfishing you will have to ask LAB ;)

Congrats on your personal best and the PUOSU title Mike. It's going to be a long winter for some people on this board :D

Re: Puosu 4
 

High Hook went to Scooter aka Scott Kearny with 6 plus a release of a 15"

FinS had 6 also

Most had 3-5 keepers

Some had only 1 or 2

SOMEONE had ZERO even using the bag of hermits I donated to the trip
