Annual Sea Bass Trip

[shizzy]

Are we fishing the same general area(fishing grounds) as last year? I know he's at a different marina now, just curious...






Will we catch a shark? How big and what type might it be?

Shizzy - last year went Sea Bassing on the Atlantic Star out of Wildwood - so this is a completely different boat. We did a Taug trip on the Bandit IV in the spring but you missed that trip.

We will be going a little further out then last year as for Sharks, I am sure you will get some of the viscous and deadly spiny dogs:

BTW - I kept a half dozen Spiny Dogfish last weekend to try - they are about as good eating as anything out there!

Oops, I remember now. Somehow I mixed up the names of the boats in my head! Glad the spiny dogs taste good.

Hey Esquired, when you caught the Dogfish did you have to gut them right away before you put em in the cooler? Most people say you have to do that and I was wondering if it's true

I usually do that - but I found that if it is cold enough (water temp under 40*) that it did not matter. They were yummy! I am making fried shark cakes out of the last of the meat today!

Had fresh flounder for breakfast as well

Dog fish is awesome tasting. Pops catches them all the time down the Cape. Yummy!

 

[Bryan_VA]

There have been many times where I almost kept a big doggie, but I always had second thoughts. Glad to see others have done it! If I stick one on the C Bass trip I might just toss it in the cooler.

 

[Captain Ahab]

Heck - we have Dogfish Sasimi all the time!

I have never been seasick in my life.

I went on a party boat once, Everyone including the captains helper were sick except the captain, My father and me. I'll be the one eating sandwiches watching others toss there cookies muhahahahahahaha

 

[Bryan_VA]

I've never been seasick in my life either so don't bet on me being the first to blow chunks.

Although you might want to bet on me catching more dogfish, bergals, and 11.99" sea bass than everybody else.

Same here...If anyone will puke it will be that Jake Boyer.
