to no drift but the current running crazy!! Picked at the shorts and had a couple
shots of keepers. The drift of the day had 7 keepers, when we tried to repeat it,
NG.

other: Capt. Paul had the Bill Anthony charter out for a day of Striper fishing. We
anchored up on the Rocks with a well full of live Bunker and fresh chunks. It did
not take long for the Alligator Blues to find us and it turned into a Bluefish trip.
The big Blues were relentless on the Chunks and Livies. We never saw a Bass. We then
ran south and anchored up off Mantoloking in 70 ft. there were no Blues but plenty
of Smooth Sand Sharks. It really was an uneventful day. None of the Blues were kept.
I have 2 openings avail. for the July 8th Open Boat Seabass trip. I will be sailing

other: Yesterday's AM trip targeted stripers. Dick Skinder caught his limit in
stripers up to 20 lbs. In the PM trip Fran Que chartered the boat and he we caught
no stripers, but a huge catch of keeper fluke. The boat was almost limited out.
This morning's fluke trip started on an excellent note with numerous keepers, but
when a 25-30 mph wind came up out of the south the drift became so fast that we
could not hold bottom and we were forced to finish up in shallower water with
smaller fish. Carl Zimmerman and Jim Kurry caught multiple large fish. I have
openings for the holiday weekend for both trips as well as for next week, both
charter and open trips. Call Capt Ray: 732 803-6276.

with one blue and one mako. The mako going around 150 broke the line. We then
proceeded to have multiple double header blue sharks all day long. At 1330 we pulled
our baits as we had 6 or 7 large bluesharks circling our boat and consistently
biting our chum bucket or prop. We did this for about an hour and were unable to
lose the blues. Moved up our chum slick and reset. Within 20 minutes had 3 more
bluesharks. Too bad the only mako broke the line. Never seen so many blues in one
location. Great day on the water. God Bless the USA.

for Makos. At around 9:15am the close rod next to the boat gets hit and right next
to the boat a nice size Thresher eats the bait and the fight is on!!! After 50
minutes we have the fish hanging next to the boat! The rest of the day we only had

Capt. Phil Dulanie and newly minted Capt. John Timken (Congratulations John!) along
with Brad Burgess and Adam LaRosa took out the Dr. Pat Cuozzo (Fairhaven, NJ) and
Jay Garvey (Southern, NJ) on the 60’ Ritchie Howell Friday to Saturday. They headed
to where the 48 was finishing up and immediately got into nice yellowfin. Putting
the lines in just inshore of the tip of the South Toms canyon in 400 feet of water
they trolled 100 yards and nailed a 40 pound yellowfin. Three of the next five
yellowfin were 30-35 pounds and then the little ones showed up. Over the next 7
hours from 12:30pm to 8pm they caught a total of 45 yellowfin with 9 in the 25-30
pound range. Dr. Cuozzo’s son Jonah (12) caught the bulk of the fish and is getting
everyone mounted according to an agreement reached before they left the dock!!!
The bites were coming on everything obviously but the bigger fish were eating 6”
Canyon Runner Rainbow Squid Bars. The little fish were crushing the ballyhoo as we
went thru four 12-packs on the trip. We set up in 500 feet of water just south of
the South Toms Canyon on a drift that took us just inshore of the tip of the
Carteret Canyon. During that drift we nailed a 193# mako one a skipjack filet.
Up on the troll in the morning we headed back up to the north by the south Toms and
started picking away at the small ones again with another 13 yellowfin including 2
more keepers before we finished off at 8am with 58 yellowfin including 11 between
25-40 pounds and a 15 pound mahi.
[B]60 Ritchie Howell Canyon Runner 6/25 – 8 Yellowfin 25#-30#[/B]
Capt. Phil Dulanie, Capt. Mark DeCabia - and brand new Capt. Mike Zajac that finally

Thursday for a day troll. With the reports of bigger fish in the Carteret we headed
there and had the boat up on the troll at 6am. By 8am we already had 4 nice 25-30
pound yellowifn in the boat. 2 were caught on the northeast corner of the mouth and
2 were caugth on the west tip. All the fish ate Canyon Runner Green Machine Bars and
Rainbow Squid Bars.
The nice water they were fishing in the Carteret moved out so they headed south to
the Lindy and found the nice water again at the northeast corner of the Lindy. As
soon as they got into the 68 blue water they found the yellowfin and pulled 4 more.
They finished the day troll with 8 yellowfin with
[B]60 Ritchie Howell Canyon Runner 6/24 - 5 Yellowfin Day Troll[/B]
Capt. Phil Dulanie, Capt. Peter Doran and John Timken had the Pete Guaditis charter

We went south to the Spencer after working the Lindy and the other boat went north
to the Carteret. The Carteret was the place to be. We caught some skippies and
between 1pm and 3pm had 5 yellowfin to 30 pounds all on Canyon Runner squid bars and

the Jersey Coast Shark Tournament. With a nice forecast and ocean conditions we made
a 56 mile run to great looking shark water. We set up and the waiting began and boy
did this group stick it out. With not a bite all day it finally happened at 2:45pm!!
It was are first Mako! It turned out to be a small one around 80lbs that was cut
free. A few minutes later the rod goes off but the fish neverr takes the bait, we
reel it up and another Mako at around 150lbs follows our bait right to the boat.
After trying to get him to eat he finally takes a big bite of our bait next to the
boat but never gets the hook! We set the lines again and 5 minutes later he takes
the fillet!!! This time we have a solid hook in him and have him within 20 feet of
the boat and the fish rolls up the leader makes a run and breaks us off!!! Not
thinking this would be a fish for the winner board we get the lines back out and
have another big shark eat again this time thinking its the one it turns out to be a
275lb blue shark. Great end to the day! The hard part was finding out on the last
day that the fish we broke off would have put us on the board and we would have one
some money!!!!

for a couple of hours..
Fished the channels for the change, had good action again until the SE came up on
the outgoing and shut the bite down.
Finished up in the bay and like yesterday, stroked it for the last hour!!!
Tom Krako had the big one at 5 1/2 pounds and now leads our Big Pool.
I think if the Party boats were smart, we all would have gotten together and had a
pool for the first 10 pounder in the harbor, big bucks attract big crowds...but who
am I!!
Got an E mail asking if the Fishermen had GONE UNDER because I missed a couple days

Nick Clemente,Joe,Adrian,Chris and Pablo were aboard the Megan Beth for a day of
Fluke fishing. Heading to the North we stopped off Long Branch for a few drifts in
45 foot of water.Hard to hold with a North wind and roaring tide we had a hard time
holding bottom with 12 oz. After a few drifts with only showing a few Sea Bass with
one keeper we headed in to the shallow to fish some rocky bottom. We found the
fluke but a lot of shorts and only a few keepers anlong with a few Sea Bass.
[B]48 Canyon Runner – 6/19-20 – 167# Mako/Mahi/1 Yellowfin[/B] Capt. Phil Dulanie and Capt. Mark DeCabia with mate Deane Lambros took the Carl Bloomfield charter offshore Friday into Saturday. We did not head back south as we felt strongly the fish we were catching had moved out with the water. Instead we knew good water was moving into the Hudson/Dip area so we headed in that direction. We were right about the water. As soon as they got to the mouth of the Hudson they had the nicest water we've seen so far and had a 20# mahi in the boat within 10 minutes of fishing. The water got up to 69 degrees but the warmer it got the less life they had. The moved back to the cold water and nailed a 25# yellowfin in 64 degree water. They had good life there so they stayed the night and picked thru 6 blue sharks to nail a 167# mako. The charter needed to be home early on Saturday so they trolled just a couple hours in the morning with no bites and came home. We’ve been stuck at the dock due to weather now since Saturday night but plan on going tonight on a day troll and then hopefully fishing back to back to back overnighers thru the weekend so let’s keep our fingers crossed for good weather and finally for a water temperature shot with no clouds!!!

Naturally, when the tide did change, we drifted at 2 1/2 knots on the incoming and
SE wind. Very limited to where we could fish. The ocean was out, the knoll was too
fast, so the bay it was. The group did end up with some very nice keepers from 3 1/2
to 6 pounds on the big one. High hook had 4 and not a whole lot of shorts for any
amount of action.
I'm sure this easterly flow is not helping with the water temps and cutting out
several good area's we normally fish. Gotta get back to normal soon, I hope!! Fluke
fishing everyday now. Capt.ron

Capt. Mark DeBlasio took the Frank Perillo charter out on a canyon tutorial trip
leaving the dock at 8am Monday morning and arriving at the south Toms Canyon at
Noon. They got up on the troll where the 48 Canyon Runner left them biting on Monday
morning but did not find the same life.
They picked away very slowly on fish moving south to the Carteret Canyon and back
north while staying on the 100 fathom line. They finally move into 50 fathoms
inshore and never really found the same water they had the day before. The afternoon
troll bite saw 8 tuna come to the boat. They had 4 bluefin all around 40" and
40 pounds. They also had 4 yellowfin with 3 kept in the 30" class. The bluefins
were still all over the purple/black Canyon Runner Squid Spreader Bars and the
yellowfin ate Green Machines and Green Machine bars.
At night they drifted in 50 fathoms between the Toms and Carteret and nailed a 130#
Mako released another mako of about the same size plus 6 bluesharks. At 7am they
stayed on the drift as a big 300# mako was circling the boat but they could not get

until 3pm they arrived at the South Toms/Carteret Canyon area at 6:30pm and did not
get a bite on the short troll bite that they had. They did however make up for it at
night with a nice 110# mako caught along with a few blue sharks.
Up on the troll in the morning they had a quick shot of 40 pound bluefins catching
one and releasing one but then no other action. A move south down the line proved
successful as they found the yellowfin up on top.
In the last 3 hours of their trip they caught a total of 26 yellowfin with 2 - 40
pounders mixed in along with 3 - 25 pound fish and the rest were small in the 24-28
inch range and all released.
They finished up the trip with 28 tuna with 4 – 40 pounders 3 – 25 pounders and the
rest 26-29 inch fish that were released plus the second mako of the year.

tuna season - Capt. Phil Dulanie is back offshore after being on the Injured Reserve
most of last year with no less then 5 bouts with pneumonia and seemingly has not
lost his touch just yet. He is running a Sunday/Monday overnighter and with some
usual intel from our 60 Canyon Runner basically stopped right on the yellowfin and
bluefin bringing 19 to the boat in the first 2 hours and fishing up the afternoon
troll with close to 35 tuna (25 yellowfin and 10 bluefin). They also called me just
before mid-night noting that our first mako of the year was in the boat!
With 40 tuna in only half a trip obviously everything they put in the water got
bites but the bigger fish (40-50 bluefin) ate the purple/black Canyon Runner Squid
Spreader Bars.
By the way - this was an open boat trip and we have our next one scheduled for July
5-6. We have three open spots left open on this trip. The cost is $750 and that

Ended the day with some jig fish in the channel...Will be tied up the next two days,
then it's on to Fluke fishing.
Gerry Krakow had the Big Pool Winning Striper this season at 25 pounds. Our largest
this spring was 31 pounds followed by a 29 1/2, neither one was in the big pool.

100Lbs. Things were then quiet until around 11 when all hell broke loose and we had
all three lines get hit almost instantaneously. Two fish hooked up and one was
boated and tagged, the other got off. We then had fish swimming in the slick and
taking baits at boatside for the remainder of the trip. We only stayed until 1:00PM
when it got a little nasty, but had boated and tagged about 7 fish while losing a
few others on spinning gear. When we left, there were still dorsal fins in the
slick. I have not seen so many blue sharks around the boat at one time in my life.
The second a bait splashed the water, the sharks would come right up to take it. I
fish a 25 foot center console and take the other rods out when one fish is hooked up
and made sure to make this the practice on Sunday due to the fact that it may be the
only tune up my crew had before the tournament. If we chose to fish with more than
one line in after hookup, God only know how many we could have boated.
Be safe out there!

John Timken took the Mike Tucci and Dr. Mark Smith charter out Saturday on our first
canyon trip of 2009 leaving the dock at 9am and found the yellowfin shortly into the
trip. They started up at the Toms Canyon putting lines in around Noon and worked
south where around 3pm they went 2 for 3 on yellowfin.
They ended up moving a little further south and started picking away at a decent
pace. Catching double and triples with a fairly steady pace. They started to mix
in a few bluefin ending the afternoon troll bite with 5 bluefin in the 30-50 pound
class and 15 yellowfin with 6 that we kept from 30-33 inches and 6 we decided to
release but they were keepers. They had most of the fish right on the 100 fathom
line. They set up at 9:30 for sharking/swords but only had a blue shark to show for
their efforts by the morning.
The morning troll bite however did not disappoint as around 7:45am Sunday morning
they began picking away at some nice yellowfin putting another 12 in the boat with
two 40-pounders kept and the rest released. Again, almost all of the fish were in
the 30-33 inch range with a few shorts but we only kept a total of 8 yellowfin for
the entire trip despite catching a total of 27. We also kept the one bluefin we
were allowed and released the other 4.
According to the guys black/purple 9" Canyon Runer Squid Spreader Bars and our
Canyon Runner Rainbow Spreader Bars accounted for most of the fish as they were
feeding on 9" squid. But with 32 tuna to their credit and bunch others lost
ever lure in the pattern at one point or another got crushed.

3:00 am and found clear, blue 64 degree water in what became a foggy day. Seas were
moderate 2-3' swells with a NE wind at 10-12, and the ride out was clear under a 3/4
moon. Set up at 6:30 and didn't get a touch until 8:30 when we caught a couple
bluefish, quick filet and they went back in the water. At 9:00, the deep line went
off and we had high hopes, especially the way the fish took a second and third run
down deep, I was thinking thresher as I readied the flying gaff. What we got when
we saw color was a look at the first of 13 blue sharks we would wire and release
this day. This one was one of the bigger blue sharks I've ever caught at about 9
feet. We got 2 more that size and the rest were 100-130 lbers. All in all a great
day on the water with terrific guys. I got to go buy some more hooks.

fishing. We could not get a bait in the water without having one on. At the end of
the day we lost count, and headed for home in nice sea conditions. Once again great

pound category.
Jimmy Finn, Oakland N.J. had his limit plus a "just under" 30 pounder for

regs shaking their heads!!
After a month and a half of E mails and should been here yesterday's, Kyle the (PA
Monger, on this sight) finally made it out!! Both he and his Dad landed 2 very nice
fish.
Way too many fish lost because of drag settings or guys panicking and starting to
reel as the fish made their first run....Relax, let the fish go, they have to stop
sometime, then start reeling them in. Gonna start taping Thumbs to index fingers as

misses close to the boat and the charter was not to anxious to come out of the cabin

Picked fish in the AM, the keepers were just that and shorts were way short. Not a
hot bite, but a pick for a couple hours. Lost the current and had to go searching.
Tried a new area in the afternoon only to find dogfish and 17 to 19 inch bass. Joe
longo had a couple short fish and the huge one for the pool! Capt.Ron Sr. gave his
usual fishing leasons with a couple keepers and way too many shorts. Will see what

other: With the anticipation of a Nasty day and an almost guaranteed bite, the
customers came out today, despite the forecast of rain and wind. From past post's,
today should have been a banner day, only one problem, when the tide started to run
out, it got NASTY!
Anchored up and had fish on right away, lines were already running to the bow with
the outgoing and East wind. Myself and the crew kept tossing the customers out and
working their lines knowing the end was near! We boated a bunch of keepers and way
to many 27 inch fish in the first hour. After that it was PUKE and move!
Made several drops on great readings only to move and find the fish laying in front
of the boat! Worst conditions I have seen in a long time. Between the rain, wind and
swinging of the boat, it was almost impossible to put a great catch together. Still
had some nice keepers and good action while it lasted..Tommy Krakow finally got rid
of the skunk and landed 2 nice keepers, just missing the pool and feeling reborn
again!!

It was like that most of the morning till the change of tide.
Unlike yesterday, slack into the change didn't produce. We moved to another area but
by then the bite was over. Some smaller fish that looked like they had been eating
for a week, very fat!! More long males and not many females also... Still a good day
of Striper fishing. East 10 to 15 tomorrow should do the trick!!! Capt. Ron

good decision as we added 6 more large Bass to the catch. The largest Bass of the
day was caught by Eric Brittingham a 45" Bass which weighed in at 45 Lbs. It
was Eric's first Bass ever. A nice way to start. It was followed by a 46" Bass
