Thoughts of this past year... and plans for the upcoming season???

[Jigman13]

I wanna stop dropping swordfish at the boat lol...land a marker day time deep dropping, put a triple marker in the boat and deck a #200+ bigeye. To 2020!

I explored a lot of back bay this summer and caught more keeper fluke consistently than I have in the past. Also experimented with winter flounder on ultra light and scored consistently in November and december using some new tactics that allowed me to move vs baiting and waiting. Hadn't caught one in nearly 20 years and was catching 2 to 6 per trip on the right tides. Biggest was just shy of 17".

I also beat up the tog in pt pleasant this fall. Not many keepers but great jig action and got my son involved so he could feel the power lol.

Other than that I did well on walleyes and smallies in the raritan. No beasts but some nice fish and quantity.

I def fished more salt than sweet in 2019. But that ain't a bad thing!
