Margate City Fishing (7-23/24-16)

On July 23rd and 24th, 2016, I took Miles down to the shore to do some more saltwater fishing. The fishing wasn't that great, but we ended up catching some fish. I did ad the Smooth Dogfish to my species list, which probably was the highlight of the trip. I actually only caught the Smooth Dogfish and a bunch of Black Sea Bass during the trip.

Belmar Fishing (7-16-16)

On July 16th, 2016, my friend Miles took me down to Belmar, in New Jersey. We set up for a wide array of species, and I ended up with for species, two of which were new. The first fish I caught was a tine Black Sea Bass. I caught him while trying to catch what ended up being the second species of the day, the Bergall. The Bergall ended up being a new species for me, which was super awesome! After the Bergall, I caught a 17 inch Summer Flounder. That was a pretty nice fish, except for the fact that the legal limit was 8 inches. So, we released him. My final species of the day, also a new one, turned out to be the Sea Robin. The Sea Robin came with a worthy story. The story was that there were scattered thunderstorms throughout the day and at one point the storm got really bad. However, Miles and I kept fishing. We then in the midst of a dangerous thunderstorm, doubled up on Sea Robin! Overall, it was definitely a memorable day!

As annoying as Black Sea Bass can be, you gotta love their beauty!
