Deal Surf Report 11/19 We got 'em!

I didn't fish the surf this morning because Leif and I hit the Fly Fishing Symposium in Somerset today.
We did get to fish this evening in the Deal surf from 4:30 to 6:00pm.
Snapper head was already fishing when Leif and I arrived. He was fishing a AVA 17 and working the stretch.
We started with AVA's as well, and Ben hooked up shortly after we got there. He lost that fish and said he saw sand eels just as the fish hit. I had one on briefly.
As it got dark we switched to bombers and managed one fish that was 27 1/2 inches on a school bus bomber.
After fishing we stopped off for burgers and talked about our outing. Not a bad way to spend a nice Fall evening.

Golden Touch 11/16 Awesome Blackfish report!!

Fished on the Golden Touch today with Howie, Tropics, Jon Devin, Brian and Allen today for the "Blackfish Opener" As always a great time and good fishing, not to mention many laughs. It is alway a pleasure fishing with this group and boat.
Breakfast on the way out, lunch served...Shrimp and Spanish Rice ect... Frankie is on the money.
Any way the boat landed 29 keepers, Richie had a 9 and I had a 10 pounder(see photo) and we had pretty good weather.
Great fishing with you guys and thanks to Captain John Cole and Frankie for making the extra effort.
Can't wait till next time.. Again, great to see every one and nice meeting and talking to you Allen.

P.S. Almost droped another rod in the drink! Caught it in mid air and landed the fish! Wish I had the video..
