Randy Alkins (L) and Kurt Henjes (R) squeezed one final trip into 2005 with a late December togging trip on Steve London's Stanley Rose. Not bad fishing, eh?
Kurt Henjes and Jon Funk fished with their kids and had a great fall day chasing the linesiders. The above pictures show Kurt's 10 year old daughter with her first-ever striper, taken off IBSP on November 6th on a shad rig. The young man in the pictures is Jon Funk's son, who also caught his first ever striper that day.
Al Gillen's nephew, Kyle, shows off a fall striper taken in mid November.
Tom Jordan hefts a pair of tog he and a fishing associate nailed while fishing at the Corson's Inlet State Park.
While this is not a fishing picture, it is noteworthy to see how high the water came in the second big Nor'easter that we had in October. Dave Locandro's boat is nearly at the end of its ropes, but all was well as the water fell.
Lee Burden got his boat back into the action this summer. Here he shows off one of a nice catch of fluke his crew made.
A gorgeous evening sunset in Tom's Canyon gave the Major Distraction crew no indication of what was to follow: a rush of 5 tuna in an hour's time and a total of 7 tuna for the night.
Brian Hunter had a dynamite canyon fishing trip on August 26-27 with both tuna and swordfish. Unfortunately, Brian didn't weigh any of his tuna in and did not enter them into the PJSA Offshore Bragging Rights Tournament.
Ron Kovler came across these dolphins while tuna fishing offshore.
More dolphin pics from Ron.
And we all thought that Steve London only fished with real men...
Steve, what kind of fish is that again?
