PROWLER5 - JUNE 3, VERY GOOD STRIPER FISHING 3:30-9:30 TRIP, CAPT. SCOTT
Hey gang. (posted at 4:45) Hey gang. We're out on the bass grounds with a light crowd tonight. Too bad more people didn't come down this afternoon. We've already put 12 big fish in the boat and we're only in the first hour of fishing. All big fish. All on fresh clams. I will post tonight's pool winner later this evening. None of the big boats went last night with the high winds. It's a shame - we wanted to get out there. Thanks, Capt. Scott. Sailing every afternoon 3:30-9:30 for the rest of the summer for striped bass.
PROWLER5 - JUNE 2, FLUKE (starting tomorrow) and 3:30 BASS REPORT, CAPT. SCOTT
Hey gang. We're switching over to fluke 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. every day starting tomorrow, Friday, June 3rd. Bass fishing has been a little tough in the day time for the last few days. Yesterday we took a long ride down to the south and only had one big 28 lb. bass and then the south wind picked up and we had to tow one of our friends on a charter boat back to the bay. Tough day to say the least. But it's fluke time anyway and the guys have been catching a lot of nice fluke. As far as the 3:30 bass trip - that we will continue to do seven days a week. The average has been between 12-15 keepers a night. The only afternoon we did not go was yesterday afternoon with the tornado warning. Capt. Glenn said come on down, he'll be running the first fluke trip tomorrow in the day time and I'll be running the 3:30 - 9:30 striped bass trip in the afternoon. Weather looks great for tomorrow come on down. Thanks, Capt. Scott.

Hey gang. It's definitely a striper kind of day. It's overcast and the stripers are biting again. I noticed a lot of people always come down to fight to get the back of the boat - the stern, but to be honest, the last 10 trips that I've run the boat, the port side - the left side - has been the hot ticket. For instance, we're laying into the East and the lines are going straight out to left side. The fish are being hooked from the bow straight down the side to the back of the boat. Yesterday, we limited out. It was excellent fishing and we're working on it again today. It looks like a beautiful day for tomorrow, both trips. P.S.

PROWLER5 - THURS. APRIL 7th REPORT
Hey gang. The report that I got was that there was some bass to the far west being caught, mostly shorts. We headed out today from Atlantic, wasn't a lot of customers around. We sailed with 10 customers and that was it for the whole harbor. It wasn't as nice as I thought it would be. The sun never came out, it was cold and overcast. Anyway, I read a lot of bait at Keansburg area I believe they were bunker readings. It was no good there. We went all the way to the far back, into the shallows. I read bait and fish, but we couldn't get anything to bite today. The only good news about today is that the water temperature warmed up to 47 degrees. Capt. Glenn had 45 degrees in that same area on Sunday's trip. Anyway, the weather looks good for the next four days. It's supposed to warm up. That's exactly what we need. All the boats are back in Atlantic Highlands. Everyone is ready to go so hopefully there are better days ahead for us. Capt. Glenn will be there tomorrow and Sunday. I'll be back for Saturday's trip. As of now we are just sailing 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. clamming for the striped bass.

PROWLER 5 - 5/13/10 AWESOME BASS REPORT PLUS BIGGEST FISH OF THE YEAR 39.8 LBS. AND LIMITS
Hey gang. It was a very interesting trip today. I started out driving an hour and a half before I even put the jigs in the water. Covered a lot of ground to find them, but when we did, all hell broke loose the first couple of drifts. I think every rod was bending with big fish on the first drift. I even had to go down and give Brian and Mark a hand netting and gaffing. It turned out to be an awesome trip all on the jigs. We also boated our biggest bass of the year, 39.8 lbs. caught by Joe Lighting of Allentown, PA. It was the biggest fish we've ever caught jigging on the Prowler 5. Mark is the deckhand that stuck the big fish and Joseph did a beautiful job fighting the fish. We limited out and docked early, a little after 1:00 p.m. today. Plus, it was a beautiful day to be out on the water. Capt. Glenn said to come on down in the a.m. He's ready to find them. I'll be there in the afternoon for the 3:30 trip. Thanks. Capt. Scott .

I had the boat out on the 3:30 trip this afternoon, Friday and that fishing was much better. We had real big stripers tonight on clams. We had the poolwinner weighed in on the digital at 34.5 lbs. caught by Fred Seeger Jr. of Landing, N.J. and we had several others in the 25 lb. class. All in all we ended up with around 30 keepers tonight. Good fishing. Now for the bad news. The next two days are not looking good with the wind forecasts.

A lot of regulars were on the boat and we caught some real big bass today ranging from 25 lbs. to 30 lbs. class with many limits. 98% of the fish were caught on jigs again and a few big ones were caught on live bunker. There must have been a ton of bait out there. We've been flying out to the fishing grounds. This is where the speed really helps. It's very important to get out there first and get 3 to 4 excellent shots at them first thing in the morning. Today's poolwinner was 30 lbs. on the button boated by Felix Sonts of Old Bridge, NJ. We've been burning a lot of fuel, but it's been well worth it with this kind of fishing. It was a great month of April and May is starting out the same. See you guys in the a.m. Thanks. Capt. Scott
PROWLER 5 - 5/4/10 OUTSTANDING BASS TRIP
Hey gang. It was another super trip today on the big bass. Capt. Glenn's been red hot. He was the first boat out on the grounds today and found a big spread of fish.

Fishing has been like this for a solid month, I hope it continues. P.S. I am adding around 40 new pictures to our website tonight. Also, I've been posting reports and pictures on njfishing.com Thanks. Capt. Scott

We had less than a handful of keepers. We had a slow pick on short bass and bluefish. I covered a lot of ground today looking for the readings and the bird life. There was no bird life to speak of today. Very little readings also. Capt. Glenn called me and said the fish will come up in the afternoon, but the only thing that came up in the afternoon was that south wind. Darrin Dubois of Garfield, NJ took today's pool with a 17 lb. bass. I'm optimistic that the fishing will bounce back tomorrow, Thursday. P.S. This is the best picture I came up with today (the Seashepherd.org Steve Irwin) we'll post pictures Friday night. Thanks. Capt. Scott.
