Show off your fish

Finally got a chance to get out of the shop and hit the ocean. Big Bluefin have been pretty generous in local waters this year. I was lucky enough to hang a couple. Broke first one off at color and landed the second one. Went 160#

 

The drum season has begun. One of many I expect to get the next 2 months.

 

Not mine, my cousin is down in Hawaii for vacation with his family and he caught this.

 

Just got back from a 1.5 day trip out of SanDiego. Helped to catch our boat limit after limiting out ourselves. 8 of mine bit the popper...

 

These are from a couple recent trips

 

Being stuck in the Midwest for now I mainly chase smallies on the fly. They don't pull as hard as salt fish but the acrobatics are awesome.

 

Nice. I haven't caught a weakie in a while.
You mentioned the Fluke season closing Sep. 5 (in NJ)... The regs in our area are idiotic. Delaware has no closed season for fluke, Del and NJ are catching the same fish in the same waters...Go figure?!?

 

No fish tonight but I had a good view.



Did get one the other night though.

 

Windy, rainy, cars getting sand blasted. Nothing more than a mild nor'easter. I believe they issued the evacuation when the track was closer to the coast. There's some minor flooding in Ocracoke though and I don't think the ferry dock is accessible right now due to overwash. So it was probably a good call to get the visitors out.

 

My 1.5 day trip got canceled the morning I was supposed to leave. I was so bummed. We were going after these. But to make up for it I'm going on Theo day trips and a weekend trip to Catalina

 

Madison river September 20

 

Been a couple weeks since I helped catch these, but here's a few chickens o' the sea...



The ride in on lake pacific...

 

Last minute trip turned out nice today. Big ass redfish with a heart shaped dot on his tail, a couple of decent specks & reds, and tagged a few that were too small to keep.

 

Took a trip to lake Mille Lacs earlier this year with a few buddies and had an absolute blast. The small mouth were on fire, at least for our boat. We also put a few walleye in the boat too.

Bonus tiger musky from a few days ago.

Fishing is my life, so pretty sure I'll be a regular here.

 

nice smallies! We have some muskies near us but havent got one yet... Mostly pike is what I catch. We did catch some smallies, largemouth and a chinook

 

@mrfish1991 did you get a weight on the smallies?
