 Fishing Log


Monday, June 2, 2003 - Took a 3.5 lb. flounder at B/C Corner on a chartreuse metal flake, twisty tail jig, on a red .25 oz. head.  The fish measured 21 inches.  Blackened same on the grill and served it up with mango salsa:

3 diced ripe mangos
one chopped bunch of fresh cilantro
one 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1 chopped red onion 
2 finely chopped seedless jalapeno peppers
blend with a little virgin olive oil


June 11, 2003 - Before work I hooked a small croaker that was attacked by a large bluefish.  I managed to reel in only the croaker's head.  Everything aft of the croaker's gill plates was gone.


Thursday, June 12, 2003 - Released a small croaker at B/C Corner, taken before work on a pink tailed Christmas tree jig, on a red .25 oz. head.

Friday, June 13, 2003 - Caught and released a 14 " croaker on my first cast - same details as above.  Nothing more after that.

Monday, June 16, 2003 - Another 15-16" croaker at B/C Corner before work.  Same particulars as above.

Wed. June 18, 2003, - Watched a panicked toadfish trying to evade a school of blues that had chased it up off the bottom.

Except for one good flounder, this has been a disappointing month.
