First
recorded NSAC Triple Slam 10-21-07
JN “Juice”, TS
“Tsnacks” and AN “Kodiak” hit the waters off Montauk
Point on Sunday, October 21st. Out on AN’s Mako.
Weather, sunny,
warm 65-70degrees. Wind 10 knots from the West , switching Southwest.
Seas 3-4 ft. moderate swell.
Beautiful Fall run
day at the Mecca. Loaded up on Gas at Montauk
Marine Basin. Joined the fleet of charter and rec fisherman off the point
and worked the north rips with diamond jigs, the Juice was on the salt fly.
Immediate hook up with Blues to 10 lbs. Adam landed a schoolie bass, only
one of the day. Landed total of 40-50 blues on the day as well, still sore
from the action.
After slack, the
outgoing produced numerous, vicious surface blitzes with Blues/Bass and False
Albacore! Sickest blitzes I’ve ever seen. Fish were attacking bait
balls of very small Anchovies. JN finally landed a few blues on the fly!
AN switched over to a deadly dick on light tackler spinner rod. BAM fish
on ! worked him 360 degrees around the console and I netted him in. AN’s
first in-shore falsie. I couldn’t resist, gave the lure a few tosses.
Frustrated I couldn’t hook into one…then BAM, albie on after 40
th cast. Sick fight! First recorded NSAC Triple Slam -
Albie/Blue/Bass all caught in one trip.
Great
day.
