Huge stripers to 49lbs and more back bay action Print E-mail
Sunday, 23 May 2010
This week we mixed it up between huge stripers to 49lbs and more back bay action.Regular Jay Simmons joined by his clients Carlton Bird and Scott Kindeness found a phenominal all day striper bite on live bunker under some of the best weather conditions ! It was a Battle Royale through out most of the day with at least 1 big striper hooked up . At times we couldn't even get our snag bunker back to the boat as it would be inhaled on the way in . Through out the day big 30-50lbs bass could be seen within just a few feet from boat wolfing down our snagged bunker or charging through the hapless schools of bunker [ way cool !!!]. Once the guys got their limit I joined the party to bag my own as well. We ended the stellar day putting an exclamation mark on a already great day by landing a huge 49lb striper ,the biggest striper of the year. Will this be this years Reel Fantasea Fishing Charters on board tourney winner ? Who knows , stay tuned. New comer John Magosin was joined by brother Steve and father Jack for a slower than normal back bay evening trip , the guys mived it up between top water and plastics for blues . Up at the inlet we saw smaller stripers free jumping on bait but found the conditions diffcult to hook up. As the sun dropped to the horizon the bite picked up tempo as the blues appeared to be slightly more active swirling on our top water poppers . Regulars Sean and Sandy Castle were joined by nephew Sam in hopes to encounter some more trophy striper action , we cover 50+ miles of ocean in heavy boat traffic to only find the stripers taking the day off digesting their "big binge eatathon " from the previous days. We did find a pretty solid bite back at the inlet with big blues to end the day. For those interested I am now adding video to our Face Book page [ go to Reel Fantasea Fishing Charters] of that weeks highlights. I'm not a video wiz by any means but some of the clips are pretty cool including seeing the big 49lber dumping our Penn 440 ssg 2x's of it's line before it's finally boated. Be sure to let me know what you think of the vidoes and if you have any techincal advise or ideas.Become a fan of the page to also get the latest on what's happening onboard Reel Fantasea Fishing Charters. I still have a couple of dates left in June for those interested in some of the best action found any where.

Best Regards,

Capt. Steve Purul

Steve...Last weeks trip was one I will never forget . Perfect weather, calm seas and a ravenous bite. Rarely do we get all those favaorable conditions working in unison.However... Thanks for going the extra mile...literally!
( 20 to be exact)..to find the Big Bass. Without that commitment are day would not have been that memorable.
FYI...Carlton is getting his 49 pounder mounted.How sweet is that ! See you soon !
