Capt. Ted reported a great day of fishing aboard the Gail Frances for the very light load of anglers who came down to join us this chilly day after turkey day. A really nice showing of nice plump green market cod with big fish honors today going to Trevor Michaelski who took the pool with a fine green fish in the low teens. That nice fish was one of three cod that Trevor boxed today and the fella who was fishing with him also had three nice keepers. Hi hook boxed six nice cod today and a couple of other fellas boxed four apiece. Sounds like for the most part the cod were spread out around the boat fairly well. Lots of nice size sea bass again with sizes to nearly 5 lbs, in fact longtime regular Jerry from Cantebury CT had three around the 5 lb mark himself!! Some red hake, a bunch of big ocean perch and a few large sea flounders rounded out the desirable catch for the day. Weather sounds chilly but tranquil tomorrow and Capt. Rich will be ready to set sail on the Gail Frances at 6 am.
Capt. Mike reported slow black fishing today. Hi hook did box four nice keeper tog however. A couple cod mixed in. Some short tog. We try again tomorrow and Capt. Mike will be ready to set sail at 6 am aboard the Lady Frances.
