Sunday 10-16-05: Met up with some local residents today to go fishing for
a 1/2 day. Capt. Chris and I had the honor to share the boat with Matt and
Richard Provencher and Tom Wisniewski, we fished the horseshoe area today. We
chose that area because the beach bite was not real hot saturday so we took a
gamble and ran through the rough water in hopes that the fish had pulled back
offshore some. It was a pretty good call. We caught one king mackeral, but,we
had about 10 or 12 runs that did not get hooked up and probably that many baits
cut in half. While trolling around, I marked a school of Amberjacks and we
decided to drop down on those. We managed to boat two of those, had several to
break off (if you have ever hooked one, you know why, they are not called 'reef
donkeys' for nothing)!!! About this time the tide went slack and the fish, as
they do a lot of times, just dissapeared, vanished, gone!!!! Everyone was wore
out by this time anyway, so we came back in. Called a friend who had fished the
beach, only to be told that we made the right decision because the beach bite
had shut down. If the weather holds and the full moon wains, I believe the fall
king bite will resume again. Only time will tell!!! The report I got from the
piers was that things have been a little slow with some 'spotty' spot action, a
few trout being caught along with some bluefish. King action was reported as
slow, real slow. Hang in there and let this fresh water get flushed out of here
and things should blow wide open. I am predicting that by this weekend we should
be in the heart of a full fledged fall bite, I have been wrong before, so don't
hold me to this, but I think it will be here by then if the weather stays
stable. As I mentioned before, Only time will tell!!!! CHECK OUT PIC'S ON MY
SITE.Till then, FISH ON!!! Capt. Butch Foster, Capt. Chris Foster, and 'Private'
Bodie, 'the fish dog' says HI.!!!! YEAH RIGHT CHARTERS, Southport,NC. www.yeahrightcharters.com
