We were finally able to get off shore Saturday.  What a day!  The fishing was fabulous with beautiful Sea Bass as hard as you could pull.  Almost everyone had their limit.  Many were in the upper 7 lb range.  The anglers also had their hands full with monster Blues.  Matt Heimbach caught the nearly 8 lb Bass pictured above as part of a double header.  The other bass was over 5lbs.  Go to Daily Fishing Reports to read more about the trip and check out our photo gallery for pictures and  a new video.  If you are interested in an offshore trip and would like to be contacted personally or to join our on line mailing list please send an email to bethbarrus<fishnorthstar@mac.com
