Another foggy morning in Cape May. We departed mid morning with Joe, Chris, Tom, Vince, Frank, and Rio. It was a calm as I have ever seen it on the bay...

Our first stop was very shallow. We had one bass hook up briefly, but he spit the hook. Then, Joe hooks up on a very small fish...an eel! At this point we are all wondering what is going on!? On the bright side, we did see some bass swirl on the surface, which is a good sign. After a bit, we make a move. We see some bass swirling on the surface and see a few marks so we set up. A few minutes in, Frank hooks up on a good fish. After a short battle, the hook pulls! AHH!! After a long wait of 45 minutes or so, Joe hooks up and gets our first keeper...

Next, Frank is granted a second chance by the fish, and boats another nice one! Vinny is up next, and it's a beauty!

We got a good bite going, and put 10 fish on the deck, 9 of which made the box! We had a number of missed bites, and a couple pulled hooks, too. VERY good to see!!! I hope it keeps up. We'll see where and how they chew tomorrow. With 60 degree water, who knows!

Out with us today was Brian Hills for his charter. There wasn't much action for anyone today, and we were included in that. We could only muster 1 short for our efforts. The best I heard of was a boat that had 2 keepers. The water is in the upper 50's, which is crazy for March. We'll see what tomorrow brings
