Fishing Report 10/31

[Scott McKee]

Jojo and I hit the River today from 1PM to midnight.  Here's our "pales in comparison to Chris's first fifty" and yap report:

(Please keep in mind that I am exhausted) Jojo had a mid-to-low thirty smack a gaudy orange tube in the Triangle as I was repositioning the boat.  I guess I put too much slack in Joe's line or the little fella (the fish, not Jojo) never had any steel in his yap.  Off to the east side,

I landed a dinker chucking a hot perch Perchbait down a weed edge in UN4.  This little guy was hungry.  He had about five hook points buried in his yap.

Also in UN4, on the "L", a low-forty blew up on my Perchbait.  I lifted up instead of back and as soon as there was tension on the line, the fish shook the back treble free from his yap.

Back to the west side.  We pounded the living hell out of the Triangle and half of UN13 for a few hours while yapping and listening to the World Series.  Go Sox!  Hey Dan, you've still got to love Shane! (Dan Lacko is a fellow Phillies fan, and Shane Victorino was an integral cog in the Phils' 2008 championship machine.)

Trolling in UN2 above Strawberry I had a mid-to-high thirty spit the hook from its yap boat side, which was just fine by me, because I wanted to stuff cookies into my yap.

Boat snack update: Jojo brought ham and turkey subs loaded with some sort of delicious cheese and home grown tomatoes and peppers, as well as the previously mentioned cookies from Claudette's.  Here's a tip: The next time you make chocolate chip cookies make sure you include white chocolate chips.  This addition really gives the cookies a unique chocolatey flavor.

You couldn't beat the weather today.  You have to love a day in late October when you are comfortable in a T-shirt.

Congratulations again to Chris and his monster 50"!  What a pig!  It's so good to see those big mommas up in the Harbor.  A fat 46" yesterday, and a 50" today?  Let's hope it continues.  Anyone going out tomorrow, please be aware that "Gale" is coming to town tomorrow night; 30+ MPH hour winds.  So long green water.  Good night.  See you on the water in the Wittek, Sunday.
