LBI 5/12 to 5/13

Called up Jim tonight since I didnt have class and couldnt pass up some beautiful weather to give LBI another shot. Id say we got to the island around 730ish, looked out front at a few spots to see some of the cleanest calmest water Ive seen in a looooong time on LBI, but we weren't feelin the beach after plugging one of our spots for 20 minutes. Packed up and headed out to the inlet.

Around the 2nd hour of the incoming we were hearing splashes in a rip nearby, thinking it was some herring we ran back to the jeep for our light tackle. Well we thought wrong... Jim's light rod doubled over and after a good 10 minute fight and 2 or 3 runoffs I went to get ahold of his fish that was definitely NOT a herring.




1/4 oz jighead with a curly tail worm was the key. Fishing under lights, we watched the bass going absolutely bonkers for a good hour. I didnt have any fish but Jim came unbuttoned from a schoolie near the rocks and lost another real nice fish. I had a few bumps but no takers, we were fishing the same stuff.




All in all one of the best nights yet of the season. Watching these bass go nuts pushing spearing to the rocks was amazing but for me to not hook into a fish had me scratching my head. A good page of notes went into the log after tonight.


Ah well.

All I can say is Great job Guys.
