This morning we had Kevin Ackerman and the boys out for some bottom fishing. The guys had a limit of sea bass and also a nice mess of fluke to 5 pounds.

Great day of bottom fishing for Kevin and the boys. The guys loaded up on fluke, along with a limit of sea bass.

We had Ron Tana out for his first trip of the season. The guys took home this bass for grill. Nice job! Looking forward to seeing them again.

Blake showing off a nice striped bass caught this afternoon. The gang of 11 went bottom fishing but managed to scoop up a quick bass to add for dinner!

This morning we had Barbara and the gang out. We had an awesome morning catching the biggest kind of sea bass. Looking forward to seeing them again.

Barbara and team spent the morning bending the rods and filling the box with sea bass. Great bottom fishing.

This afternoon we had Bill Pallas and his family out for some bottom fishing. The little anglers showed their skills today. These guys killed it!! Smiles all around.

Will and Peter were all smiles this afternoon as they helped fill the boat with jumbo sea bass. Nicely done, guys!

Rosario and the family had a nice morning catching some jumbo sea bass. Everyone got in on the action. It was a great time for the group.

Doing a little bottom fishing this morning with Rosario and family and the gang is keeping the rods bent.

Ben Schneider and the crew from Smith Haven Auto made a shark trip with us today. It was a first for this team and, admittedly, the action was a little slower than I would have hoped for. We had a couple of mystery bites, along with a 100-lb blue shark that the guys had fun taking turns fighting, and which was ultimately successfully released to swim another day. For such a small shark, he put up a good fight. Looking forward to getting these guys out with us again for some better action!

First-timer Saro and friends fished with us this morning. We were able to squeeze the trip in before the rain got here. The fish were a little picky and the conditions were a little choppy, but the gang managed to put some nice fish in the box. Plenty for dinner. Hoping for better weather next time.

Not as calm as we would have liked, but these guys kept busy fighting striped bass and bluefish this morning.

This afternoon we had Dean Campbell and his family out. The crew had a nice afternoon catching sea bass and fluke. Looking forward to seeing them all again.
