Fishing Report Week Ending 6/27/2004

Once again we had a fantastic week striper fishing aboard the Reel Ecstasy. Some days the fishing was so hot we stayed in one spot the whole day and continued to catch fish. Each trip this week yielded at least 1 keeper and on a few trips we caught as many as 6 keepers with many, many smaller fish caught as well. On most days this week we caught upwards of 30 fish. My favorite day this week was with David and his 11 year old daughter Emily. We started off catching some smaller fish which Emily was at first having trouble with, but as our 6 hour trip progressed we found ourselves into a bunch of larger fish. David had a blast with a few 33 inch fish and we were all real pleased when Emily hooked up with a 30" incher and fought it to the boat like a real pro. What a day we had, the weather was rainy and we must have raised and lowered the Bimini top a dozen times but we all stayed dry and had a great time. Big fish honors this week go to Cora, who came with her Dad Kevin. They had been doing an annual trip the last few years, catching mackerel but after Cora, (and almost everyone else on the boat) got seasick last year they decided to try an inshore trip with me aboard Reel Ecstasy. Well Cora that 39" you caught was certainly no mackerel.. The weather was not the best this week with some rain and some wind but with the bimini top and a lot of inshore spots we were all able to stay dry, comfortable and catch plenty of fish..
