Not really a 'slammer' of a trip......

Came home with just enough for a fish fry.....One nice black drum...a Sheepshead....3 nice 2-lb bluefish......Threw back a bunch of 11" to 13" flounder and some more bluefish.....Landed a chopper blue (30"....about 8-lb) and threw him back.....Lost a couple of black drum because they hit the lines that had those 'collee' hooks on them (had them rigged to catch whiting....but they were a no-show).....

Oh well. The bugs weren't too bad. Fished from about 2:30pm yesterday until just before midnight......Slept a few hours in the cab of the truck.....Got up before dawn and fished until 9am......

It was a new moon (or nearly....about 3%)....That MIGHT have had something to do with the lack of fish hitting during the night......
