Deal Surf Report! 10/28 Soup Fish!!!!

Hit the Deal surf after work tonight. Hoping to get one before the storm, I fished from 5:30-8:00. This time I worked school bus bombers and black bombers. I asked my son to go, but he opted to stay home and skate board....

Well the fish were there. I had one right away on the school bus, a short but nice to get one. As it got dark I decided to work the beach and ditch the korkers and rain gear.

Next fish was a 25 incher on the black bomber off the beach not far from where I was. I continued to work the stretch and on the way back north I hooked up with what I thought was another short. It hit right in the wash and when the wave took it back out it took off. Figured I had a decent fish and it was a 30 in keeper. Took a few more casts and had a nice fluke.

Nice to get a keeper for the chowder. Hope to get a few more.

Deal Surf Report 10/6 GOT 'EM ON A FLY!

Fished the Deal surf today from 6:00am-7:10am with Adam D'Onofrio. I fished the fly rod and white snake fly again.


Upon arriving I noticed the surf had a little more white water today and decided to work the corner of the jetty from the beach. I saw some mullet and a few swirls right away in the corner. After two casts I had one on and landed that fish. It was short(around 23 inches but a nice way to start the day.

As it got light the activity seemed to subside and I went home to get ready for the tuna trip tonight.
