GAMBLER --Stripers in the Rain
 
We did not go yesterday, due to rough seas, but Tuesday and today were great.

Tuesday was very good on a mix of big, slots-sized and short bass. With bass up to 20+ lbs and a limit of slot fish, it was steady action, all on lures. Tuesday was rough and the Gambler was the only boat out that day but the guys on board were rewarded for their efforts.

Today, we did not have enough passengers and neither did the Cock Robin (the only other boat trying to sail this morning). But we won the coin toss and combined for a total of 12 hardcore fishermen.

I didn't know what to expect after yesterday's blowing rain but shortly after breaking the inlet, we saw some readings, put it on a drift and caught 6 or 7 slot fish right off the bat. After that, it just got better. There were no birds over the fish, we just stopped on readings and the drifts produced striped bass and big bluefish on spoons, shads and ava jigs.

Nice to still see some big bluefish around but they did put a hurting on the rubber shads.

We limited out on slot-sized stripers and were releasing them by noon. But we also landed a handful of bigger stripers, up to 35", on the same drifts.

Tomorrow is calling for some wind --but do not let it keep you home; it is a west wind, we will be fishing inside of 3 miles, and, were we are fishing, that wind will only flatten the seas out.

gift certificates can be purchased on board or by call Jill at 732-295-7569

The Gambler will be making a limited amount of offshore wreck trips for sea bass by late December
