Tip when fishing 3 hooks, if you hook up and feel it’s a small fish, leave it down there and the commotion is like ringing the dinner bell for the other two hooks, usually attracting a monster nearby.
i would think you guys would be using much heavier tipped rods for deep off shore fishing,some of those look like fluke rods. when i go party boat fishing for big blues i use heavy duty poles(shorter poles)and maybe 25 lb test to be safe.i guess you where trying to feel the fish fighting and thats cool if thats the case but when i go on party boats my main goal is to catch my limit as fast as possible and once i get that i relax alittle
I use to fish for these jumbo seabass every year, but since I found out that this is where the seabass and porgy stay for the winter, I stop fishing in the winter. I still fish in the summer and love to eat seabass.
Great group of people, great boat !!! THE CURRENT REGULATIONS FOR SEABASS ARE STUPID AND BECAUSE OF THAT FEWER PEOPLE ARE FISHING AND FISHING PARTY BOATS ARE FORCED TO GO OUT OF BUSINESS !!!! $ 40 GASOLINE, $ 30 FOOD AND $ 200 BOAT FARE. ALL THAT FOR 15 SEABASS ??? MAKES NO SENSE !!!
Yes indeed.... People were selling their private boats at an all time high. Now...because, of the regs people are buying and keeping their boats more. The price you pay for a trip, gas and food can be a payment for your own boat! It costs entirely too much to go on a party boat and not catch anything or simply for a couple of fish!
