Come on Doug. What ever happened to that bad ass Guy who use to live in Brooklyn. I hope living in NJ has not softened you up. Do not let weather hold you back. Put a few hand Warner's under your ball sack and get out fishing

Do not be hating the hat. I like the orange crab looking design on hat especially when i am blackfishing as i want to be one with the crab.
As Blackfish Bobby always says.

That's a spider, the reason bananas are banned on boats.

Had the opportunity to get out and fish with one of my favorite captains yesterday. (Capt. Jerry on the Fishmonger). Was excited to get out as Jerry was planning on hitting a few places in deep water looking for some slobs.

We had a great group of guys on board including many njfishing members (Joey dafish, Henry (jigemup), Stelios, Sal (Liawa) and myself. Not sure if other guys were members. There was guy named Kevin who was awesome guy helping with netting fish and helping john out, two guys from Mt Laurel who were both good fisherman and a few others who I did not know. 10 guys in total.

Sal was high hook I believe with 7 keepers. There were a few limits caught and then down from there. I ended the day with 4 nice keepers including a 9 and 8 pounder. Joey and Henry had a few nice fish to add to the box. Stelios had a the pool winner with a nice 12 pounder. It is not by accident that he catches a lot of big fish as he is one of the best blackfisherman I know. My tip of the day is to cast around if you are not getting bites. Guys who casted around rather then just droping down caught.

Can not thank Jerry enough for giving us extra time as we got into a late bite and put a few extra fish in the box. Nice long Monger day as we did not leave until 4 pm for the ride home. I greatly appreciate people who take pride and are passionate about their work. Go above and beyond what is expected and over deliver. He truly runs a great operation including his mate John who is top notch.

Overall a decent day considering this is winter tog fishing. We had a great crew and nice weather considering it was Jan 20th. We put together a decent catch considering bites were at a premium. Ended the day with 28 keepers.
