Gambler roll call
 

Packing my stuff and like usual giddy as a school boy

Who's coming Tuesday? Tonight at 3

It seems like every year it's a similar cast of characters

Also... Trying to confirm if the galley is open. If not??? Going to be hungry!

Re: Gambler roll call
 

I was on the Saturday trip. It was an epic trip. Should be a great day! Galley was opened and should be open. Breakfast and lunch. Good luck!

I wish I was going but, Jon Mueller is representing our group tonight.

Have a blast.

PaBeerGuy will be there with 1 other. In the words of our friend Leif. "We're going to get 'em".

Re: Gambler roll call
 

I will see you there, along with my brother and a couple of others. We're gonna get'm!

Re: Gambler roll call
 

We "got 'em". Not total boat limits but we got 'em good! The porgies were friggin awesome size. My buddy and I ended up with 22 nice sea bass and about the same count on porgies. Plenty of meat! A few nice sized blues too. No pollock on the boat. Everyone on the boat had big bags of fillets. Thanks to capt. Bob and crew. Jill is a good cook. Mike and Todd did a bang up job keeping people in the game. One more mate who's name I can't remember also was excellent. Met Torchee for the first time. Really good fisherman who at one point brought up a triple header of keeper sea bass! Shared some of Pa's finest with him and some others. Awesome time! Gotta love the Gambler.....

Re: Gambler roll call
 

was anyone jigging??

Re: Gambler roll call
 

oh yea, there were. I heard but did not see some guys caught a few nice bass early on but after that bait ruled.

Re: Gambler roll call
 

Glad you got them!

Re: Gambler roll call
 

Thanks Jay, I needed that one after being frustrated from my previous NS trip Saturday. Hope to see you maybe on one of Bob's trips in Jan or Feb.

Re: Gambler roll call
 

Glad to hear you got some meat. Some of the best eating fish right there.

Re: Gambler roll call
 

was on the trip as well...fishing was great entire day, nice and steady..had sea bass limit by end of day, nothing huge but size was decent. Would say the porgy action was almost "annoying" if your target was sea bass. The boat does everything right, mates great, service excellent, boat is immaculate, clientele solid. Best part is the fishermen that choose this boat. They work together, helping each other out, giving tips, debating strategy. You never need to worry about the boat being overcrowded, never have to worry about someone helping themselves to your gear or your fish. They do everything right, especially for a fisherman with limited funds and limited fishing opportunities due to work/school.

Re: Gambler roll call
 

We will definitely meet up for a few trips. Happy New Year Buddy! :D

Re: Gambler roll call
 

Glad you got 'em!! Yep. Great boat, Capt, mates. It's killing me not to be out there but I hope to make a couple of those cod wreck trips. Shoulder is healing up so I'll be out there soon.

Feel better Leif! Hope to see you out there on the Gambler! Happy New Year!

Re: Gambler roll call
 

Happy New Year to all my friends on NJFishing.

Re: Gambler roll call
 

Thanks for the PA Beer!

What a nice bunch of gentlemen. Great cooperation and patience with some tough tangles. Nice when so many guys are like "cut it... Don't sweat it..."

Great consistent fishing. My buddy spent most of the day sick and only caught a few but we still managed 30 beautiful bass, some porgies.

Can't compliment the boat enough.
