The Orient Point Fishing Reports

In the Net. Check out the photo, not a masterpiece, but unique and fun. Fishing was so furious and great that Joe the mate had to net 2 and 3 at a time in the same net. The group had over 30 Stripers. Lock and load Stripers every trip lately. Get in on it soon while it lasts.

Picture is of 9 year old Ryan and his dad as they caught 2 at the same time. Grandpa wanted to take Ryan fluking so he could catch a fish on his own, but the mate taught him how to Bass fish and by himself he caught 5 big keeper Stripers.

Thanks Larry, Ryan is lucky to have a Grandpa like you still around to take him fishing and give him so much confidence. We are not all so blessed. Great family.

Georgie

Georgie Porgy, who fishes like a 30 yr old pro sharpie is 11. Although this is the norm for him, high hook as his father never ceases to marvel, the crew of the Black Rock continue to have great pride as Georgie started with us at about 5 yrs old. Big future for him ahead, not just as a sharpie.
See you next week.

Father and Son

Had a special Father and Son trip out as Dan the father, at a strong 82 yrs young, showed off his fishing experience countless times landing Striper after Striper and Blue after Blue. Great trip and sorry to give your age away Dan as I know you can get away for 20 yrs less, but its inspirational and something for us all to shoot for.

Thanks

Capt Sloan and Dominic

Bass and Blues

Dominic, 5 years old, and his Dad Anthony both came out fishing for the first time ever and in just a half an hour learned so much from First Mate Joe that they were catching Blues and Bass one after another. Great job Dominic, can’t wait until we see you next time.

Your new friend,

Al and the guys fished hard And filled the box. Nice job. Check it out

Mike Erin and malaky wacked the stripers with23 for just the three of them. Erin had the big one.

Frank led the way again as he caught the big one. Sal had a very close second with a big one of his own. (check out the photos).

We had our limit with a box full of nice Stripers and Angelo pointed out how the the guys were making me look good with their super human angling skills. Either way they surely didn’t make me look bad as the fishing was great, they fished like pros and we caught them every pass.

Angelo and a nice Striper

Gus has gone fishing. Out at sea, fishing for the big ones on the Black Rock, Gus was unavailable for all those landlubbers who kept trying to call him and disturb his fishing concentration. As you can see from the pictures, we had a great day catching our limit of Stripers and keeping 5 nice Fluke up to 6.3 lbs.

See you next week Gus.

It was “Georgie Porgy”, you may remember him, and his buddy “Little Joe” who showed their dads how to catch the keeper Bass. They are both 11 years old. Together they had 7 of our 10 keeper Stripers and I look forward to the next time they came hammer away. Nice job boys.

Also, nice to mention is the same report even though it was the next day,  Tom brought his father-in-law, Bob Geiger, out fishing. He said: “Cap, all I want is for him to catch a Striper”. Bob is 83 and had been on our waters long before most of us even existed. 83, but in great shape and a ready to go attitude, he caught the first fish of the trip on the second drift, and later the biggest. Nice Job Bob and great to have you on board. Always an honor for me to take these seasoned guys out.

So check out the photos of the  vets and the rookies.

Thanks
