I fished today with Victor Guadalupe and his sons with great nicknames, Magoo, Duke and Boomer (left to right) out of Seaview on Fire Island.
We had a lot of fun catching about 40 fluke with a keeper fish.
I forgot to take the photo before filleting the fish so Boomer is holding the fillets in a bag.
It was a good morning of fishing with lots of action and a beautiful day. Keepers are hard to come by but it is fun fishing.
Duke is an intense fisherman and brought his own rod. I hooked him up with a good rig and he caught real well.
The kids had a great time and Victor and I enjoyed watching them have fun.
Another great day on the water.

Striped bass fishing has been really slow lately but Rich Nelson wanted to try it even though I thought it was not a good idea. Well, you can see how it worked out. I guess I got lucky and found some real nice fish. I fished with Rich, son James and his buddy JB on the right.
We had fish of 47 pounds, 34 pounds, 28 pounds and 24 pounds and released a couple in the 30's.
It was a fun day of fishing and it is great when it works out this way.

Real nice fish for this time of year.
Another great day on the water.

This report in from Gary Arnold of the
http://www.skimmeroutdoors.com fishing team.
July 16th-17th - We did our first offshore tuna trip of the year. I fished with Sal Lacasio, Chris Madonia and Alan Donnelly aboard Sal’s 30’ Grady White – Loco Jo. It started out with a lot of discussion about where to fish. All the reports said fish west. After one more look at the water temperature breaks we decided to go east and settled in at the Middle Grounds. Some times you need to go with your gut. We landed at our target area about 5:30pm and proceeded to troll until dark. Not one fish! We tied up and started the chunk at 9:30pm not expecting much and we were right. Again, not one fish. We picked up at 4:00am and started the troll again back towards the flats. Lots of radio chatter about fish but we didn’t have a knock down. At 10:30am, we decided to give it a half hour more and we were rewarded with our first three knock downs of the trip. The biggest Yellow Fin was between 50 and 60 lbs. We worked that area going 9 for 9 with the Yellow Fin. Water is cystal clear, full of bait and sea life. We saw Whales, Turtles and Dolphins, with the last pod of Dolphins giving us quite the aerial show. Another great day off-shore with some great guys. ------Gary Arnold
Also from Gary, the dolphin put on a show for the guys. Great shot of a free leaping dolphin having fun and showing off in its own beautiful environment in the canyon.

Lots of Johns today.Johnny was high hook for the day and caught about 20 fluke and the biggest keeper.It was a beautiful day on the water with lots of action and enough fish for the frying pan.
Another great day on the water.

I fished today with Donald Murphy and his wife Jane and kids, Ryan, Matt and Don Jr. (left to right)out of Fair Harbor.
We had a good half-day of fluke fishing working from the Moses Bridge to the inlet. We caught about 50 fish with three keepers up to about 23 inches. Berkley "Gulp" caught two of the keepers. It is a red hot bait and I will be selling it through the
http://www.skimmeroutdoors.com website in the near future.
It was just about non-stop action on a beautiful day. A bunch of fillets for the table and a lot of fun for all.
Another great day on the water.

I fished today with Jan and Gina Stollerman and their friends Josh and Haley.
We had an excellent half day of fluke fishing both in the bay and ocean.
We had one keeper in the bay and then four nice keepers up to 9 pounds in the ocean. We fished real light tackle and had a lot of fun. The action was pretty hot with lots of throwbacks but some quality fish in between. The big fish and another 4 pound fish were caught on Berkley "Gulp minnow" and "Gulp minnow grub" baits.
Gina was the lucky one with the big 9 pounder showing it off in this image.
