Great job on your first trip sam- let us all know how those arms feel in the morning!

Hmmm samsky? me? lol!!!

Ryan, thanks for picking me up the last minute. No regret for the trip at all. The best trip i ever had, with great capt, and mate and NJ fishing crew. We should definetly do this next year. What you say?

Believe it or not, i actually was look for me chops and end up with more bass....lol!! I even traded the sea bass after my limit.

My arm was just a little sore not serious at all, BUT that's because i used a medicated balm. It's really good, you don't feel much sore. Will try to get some pictures up too.

I knew you would enjoy this trip. Don't expect this kind of fishing inshore ever.
This was great even by offshore standards. Looks like we might get a shot at this next year again. Hope to fish with you again.

Here's some picture from my phone, hope it's not too bad.






And the pool fish

Great job organizing this Ryan. You ran it like a pro.

Thanks for putting up the pictures sam- hopefully bob will have some others for us soon! That pool fish was a complete slob- congrats to paul for catching that pig!

Thanks gerry- I can't even imagine what it must be like to run a site like this one. Thanks for letting us run the trip off of the site this year! Hopefully we will be doing more of these trips next year- looks like we might get the regs to make it possible- I didn't have any fish between 12 and a half and 13, so it might be alright for offshore next year.

Thanks again for everyone for coming out. I will be speaking to those who couldn't make the new date at some point this week to get them their money back.

Ryan, have an idea for next big trip. PM me and I'll give you the general idea for it, still 1 3/4 to 2 months away. Again, great job organizing the trip, and I had a blast. See ya soon.

Great Job Ryan (with a tip of the hat to Andy for the assist) putting the trip together. As I told you at the beginning.........it's not just posting the date and fishing but you worked VERY HARD and the trip was a TOTAL success!

Nice to see all the action, especially Samsky taking the pool!


there we go.........THUMBS UP

HEY RYAN GREAT TRIP SORRY I MISSED IT. HOW WAS THE WEATHER OFFSHORE AND WHAT SIZE SINKERS DID YOU HAVE TO USE. THANKS

[Ryan W]

I used 16's all day, some used less. Weather was great- almost too good (I get queasy when it gets too nice- I was feeling it in the dark on that first drop. A few nice knot heads cured that though )

Mike, thanks for your help as well- I would have been unabke to do it without people like you, andy, and howie who gave me help putting my first big charter together.

Bill, I will be on the big J new years eve as well as maybe the gambler on the 28th. Wanna meet up and fish?

Ryan

P.S. Sam didn't have the pool, but had the high hook, and most importantly, had a BLAST! If you haven't been offshore, NOW is the time to go!

Thank you, Ryan, for putting the trip together.

That's some good fishing. If I don't get the picts up tonight, I'll post them tomorrow.
