jack crevalle

October 8, 1998 - 5 or 6 jacks crevalle taken on jigs near the surface, at the middle of Bravo Pier, just before dawn.  One was very large and gave me a 5 or 10 minute fight.

November 19, 1998* - Two flounder taken on jigs at C-2 West, and the Fox cove, both fish between 15 and 16 inches.  I've been out of the fishing business since I broke 3 ribs in the shower, Oct. 24.  (Slipped in the claw foot bath tub and fell over the rail) Just now able to sleep in a bed again.

 

 Cooked both fish for Kathy and Joanne (sister-in-law) tonight.  Shook fillets on a zip lock bag with curry, onion, garlic, & oregano with oil, then blackened them outside in a cast iron skillet.  Served them with saffron rice and Greek salad.  Good Stuff !!

 

The fish were taken on avocado, metal flake 'Mr. Whiffel' grub tails on a red, 3/8 oz. jig head.  Wind NE.

 

 

November 19, 1998* -  19 inch flounder (not weighed) taken at B/C corner (or) C-1 west, with a black and clear 'Mr. Whiffel' metal flake grub tail, on a red jig head.  Gave the fish to Dorothy (my mother). 

*The same date for two different entries here, one of them has to be wrong.

November 27, 1998 - A good day.  Tons of roe mullet in Fox Cove today.  Harvested about 50 pounds with a cast net.  One measured 22 inches and weighed an eyelash shy of 4 pounds.  Gave some to Wally, and smoked the rest.  Also got a big flounder at the same spot, on an avocado 'Mr. Whiffel' plastic grub tail on a red jig head.  The fish measured 26 inches (?) number smudged) and weighed 7.20 pounds on the digital scale @ B&M Bait & Tackle.

November 28, 1998 - Fished with Champ Kauffman from his boat.  We caught 7 very nice sheepshead in the lea of the South Jetty, fishing close to the rocks on an incoming tide.  Wind NE.
