New Trip Bass Trip on Fishy Business

[RJ]

Lindy you in?? Anyone else?? Let's see who we can get for this.

I am planning other trips on other boats when the fall gets here and may want to do a party boat trip once or twice a month on Fridays...day or night.

This thread though is for a night bass trip amd can we do this on a weekenday night?

[GradyWhite]

i'm in too (unless there are others interested who haven't had a trip yet. i don't want to be a hog). i'm pretty flexible with the date.

[RJ]

We could probably find a good date on a Monday through Wednesday...is this alright

[GradyWhite]

fine with me. if there is a problem, i would know with moer than a week's notice. if we have a deliberating jury or are in the middle of sensetive testimony, i can't bail early. those late days are far and few between

[LkyLindy]

I'm in RJ--

Weds. good for me- But give me advanced notice so I can reroute the root canals-LOL:p :p :p

[RJ]

I will call the captain tonight.

[zimno1]

i'm in. will make the trek w/ my mechanic who really needs a break. besides rj you have a packet for me no?

[Big Keepers]

Bring your wet weather gear and get ready for a lot of fun. Basssman took a small bath twenty minutes into fishing. Bet you didn't think I saw that. :D

[basssman]

Yup - basssman got soaked allright, but you must have seen Grady get soaked too, enough to fill his boots with water!!!
Who cares, I'll take a soaking every time if it means catching Big Fish!!!
I need to know the date of the trip before committing..

[GradyWhite]

i guess it didn't make sense for me to wear my boots without the big rubber pants too. i felt like i had jungle rot all night. i learned my lesson. and besides, it is highly unlikely that the next trip will have such mild nighttime temps.

[Jaiem]

I'm in. At the moment it appears my weekends will actually be mine this fall. Gotta enjoy 'em while I can!

[Big Keepers]

I forgot that Grady took off one boot and dumped half a gallon of sea water on the floor. Too me that is the best part of fishing. It's like hiding under an umbrella when your a kid and sitting next to the sprinkler.

[RJ]

Captain is getting me a date this evening.

[RJ]

We are sailing with Phil Kess again Columbus Day evening, October 11 at 6 p.m. The list starts now and first come first serve. The cost is the same at $110 plus tip.

I might consider sitting it out if there are more than five other people who really want to go since I will be doing plenty of fishing this fall.

1. RJ

[Jaiem]

Put me in! :beer:

I'm 99.9% sure that I have the day off. So if someone wants to be an alternate, please step up.

[RJ]

2. Jaiem

[RJ]

Well!!!! Where you people who wanted a second trip?

[GradyWhite]

i'm getting home from rome that day at 5 pm, so i don't think i'll be in any condition to fish that night:mad:

[RJ]

Did I mention this is prime time...just two days before the NEW Moon?:D

[LkyLindy]

Not much notice--

I have to see if i can bug out early -will let you know tomorrow

[zimno1]

wow! still not booked? i just got home from slammin bluefish thinking i'd see all booked and see who was makin the trip.i'm now officially in and the hawk will be joining me. so thats 2 more

[basssman]

The Sunday night would have been a lot better, Monday's an off day for most but Tuesday people work..It'a a long drive home from Orient on a work night.
Was the Sunday available?

[RJ]

I didn't ask as the monday was 2 days before the new moon. I can call and ask...but if it was he probably would have offered it to me.

[RJ]

[RJ]

It is a Monday deal...someone was :crying: about this being a Monday....wah wah wah:D Monday is what was given and I am staying wiht this now that we are one or two shy of going.:D

Rj--

C'mon -I want to see you in action--I've been hearing you use a body double on your show when it comes to CATCHING FISH-and the real Rj couldn't catch a minnow-LOl:p :p

I want to see for myself ;) ;) ;) --

It's elementary dear RJ

[RJ]

Hey...it turns out I need one of these spots as a buddy of mine from England is flying in and I forgot all bout putting his name on the list.

He just called to remind me he is flying in on Tuesday and will be here to fish for 2 weeks. Anybody offer to drop off the list?:o

[zimno1]

the hawk will give his up. as will i, just got jet tix for sun night 4th row.could use the money.but i'm in if no one wants mine

[RJ]

Thanks to the hawk for that!This list is now:beer: The list is now

1. RJ
2. Jaeim
3. zimno1
4. Lance
5. Lindy
6. Freddy

The "Z" man's spot is open if anyone wants it..otherwise he remains in

[RJ]

Capt. Phil wants to know if we can make it by 5 p.m.!!

This way we get a little light and more importanlty we get the "pink" bite at sundown since it is getting dark earlier...and we get home earlier as well!!!!:D

I think we should take his advice and do it! Lance & I have no problem with my schedule doing this...what about you guys...

[LkyLindy]

Yup-

Thats the bite I like--It'l probably work for me

[RJ]

I figured you could have gone in many directons on that one:D we just have to wait to hear from the other three now.

[LkyLindy]

RJ-

You know me too well:p :p :p :p :p

Just waiting on Jaeim for 5 p.m....I think he said he was off that day so hopefuly we can get our cows early that evening

[zimno1]

5pm it is.

[Jaiem]

5pm should be OK.

Does that mean we get back a bit earlier too?

[RJ]

Yes it does....I will post directions later today or tonight and tell the capt. it's a 5 p.m. sailing time. Cool

[Big Keepers]

Directions are simple, just get on Route 25 and drive east until you are about to hit the Atlantic Ocean. Then turn right.

[RJ]

The spot I had saved for Lance...is now UP for grabs...I have not heard from my British friend as I was supposed to so if zimno1's friend wants it again it is his or anyone else's

[RJ]

Lindy called and said his friend Jimbo has taken this spot so the trip is again sold out.

[LkyLindy]

I thought it was sound Ave all the way???????

[Jaiem]

Take 25 or sound ave or whatever you want all the way east to the Orient Ferry. About 100 feet before the ferry on your right will be Orient By The Sea marina. Pull in there, stay to the right. The boat is on the right side of the canal about half way up. Look for the sign on the dock. Park near the boat but not in the spots marked for the resturant only.

[RJ]

I will be speaking with the captain this evening. there is some wind here today...should have been hear yesterday...hope it does not stay around till tomorrow...will make a call on the go or cancelling of this trip around noon on Monday so check back.

If cancelled he has an open date towards the end of the month...will try to make it sooner rather than later.

[Jaiem]

If in doubt, I vote to table the trip. The fishing will only get better later on with a better chance at bigger fish.

On the last trip, even though the wind was mild and the weather altogether good the rips were still very choppy. It will be worse with a wind.

What is the date of the fall-back trip? I hope it's not a "school day".

[LkyLindy]

I was out at 7am today and itwas miserable-Tried for Blacks but was rocking back and forth and got a ripping headache-

Lots of shorts but had to leave since it was no fun--
I heard tomorrow (MOn) might be a bummer --Oh well

Keep us informed

[RJ]

Just spooke with the captain..he was fihsng on a charter...he said it was miserable...if it blows liek this or any arder we willl call off the trip...final decision to be made at noon tomorrow..wil announce it here or you folks can call me

[Tony Y]

Lindy ...where did you try for blacks ? Heard that the Moses bridge held some Tog I would like to go this afternoon at 1:00pm...any info would be greatly appreciated ...........Thank you ......Tony

[LkyLindy]

Tony--

First the wind today will blow you away

Second-I fish the North Shore-Smithtown Bay area

[Jaiem]

Just checked the weathe underground. Small Craft warnings, winds 15-20 gusts to 30. I can hear it hollowing outside now. :(

Oh well, that's fall weather!

[zimno1]

so what's the prognosis? would like to know if i should make the trip or not? this sucks not knowing if it will be cancelled or not, seems forecast is for 15mph wind throughout the eve till 8pm. sounds bleek.

[RJ]

If you read the thread..the announcement will be made with the next marine weather forecast update at noon today.

[RJ]

TRIP IS CANCELLED!:(

[zimno1]

:D oh boy, oh boy oh boy! now i can spend the day shopping with my wife! hoorayyy! :mad:

[RJ]

The new moon in Wednesday...Capt. Phil will call me this evening and get us a date aournd the full moon in 2 weeks.

[zimno1]

[Big Keepers]

Nothing like full moon fishing under the stars. Makes the fish go nuts.

[Tony Y]

Lindy ....you were soooooooooooo right .din't get a sniff of a hit nor did anyone else on the boat for that matter.Only fish that did come up was snagged and that was something called a Hacklehead.Never seen or heard of that one before.....Better luck next time I guess
