I decide to take a last minute trip to some of our local wrecks in search of the tasty Black Sea Bass. The fishing was a bit off and certainly more of a grind than what I would expect for this time of year
At one point I had a very large boat that seemed to be sending off seismic blasting/sonic blasting not too far from me. You can hear it in the video as it is unmistakable about midway through.
Was this the cause of the slow fishing???
We then fillet our catch and serve the beautiful wife Alana for a blind taste test of sea bass vs ling. Who will win???
Seabass. Some of the best eating fish down there. Good stuff!
Another great video. Thanks Chris
Thanks so much for watching!!
Nice job Cap!! More fishin room on the Little Reaper for the win!!
Love your channel, makes me miss fishing more and more. My second or third trip ever was for ling and Whiting way back in '79.
Thanks for sparking some old memories.
Aw man thank you so much for the kind words and for watching!!!
About time!!!
15k nice Bday gift. Keep them coming. My boat has been down for the last month finally back!
Thanks so much as always Pete! We're getting there. Glad to hear you're back in the game!
That boat is awesome 👍
thanks man. She's been good to us so far
@@reaperfishingnj8623 maybe I’ll see you on the inshore grounds (in my 1999 Boston whaler 🤣)
I was out see bass fishing last weekend and it was a ton of shorts between me and my son we had four keepers and caught a massive silver eel about The same size as the second eel you cought
Can you do a video one day on how to use outriggers?
Yeah man maybe Zac and I will do it on a lay day
@@reaperfishingnj8623 ok thanks
I have the same fishing disease. When I was five years old, my family went to visit some friends staying on the Delaware River just into New York State at a campground. I wanted to fish so much, but we did not bring any gear. The wife of the family we were visiting gave me about 20 feet of string and I tied a pull tab from a can of soda on it and bent the pull tab in the shape of a hook and threw it in trying to jig it. It sounds absurd now, but in my 5 year old mind, I was fishing and content to do so.
i used to do stuff like that all the time!!!
Jimmy Ling is hard to beat. Trick to Ling is to make a slurry in the cooler with a box of kosher salt, ice and a bucket of sea water. Promise you it won't be mushy when you clean it you'll need a glove to hold it.
I'll hafta try that next time
Nice job!!!! My favorite bait of choice for jumbo biscuits is a 4-5" zman diesel minnow on a jig head. The knot heads crush it.
Thanks for the tips!
Cod were definitely around this Spring. I picked up a 27 incher close inshore off the Lem Burrows in May.
that's awesome you got one. I think I gotta go north and really target them
Great video capt. Get yourself a sea swivel bracket for that TM. Costly but well worth it. Keep you safe.
Thanks for the tip!
Nice catch I did some tog fishing this spring but never got out for Sea Bass and they are my favorite too
It sure is fun!
Fished north Jersey. First 10 days of seabass was amazing. Afterwards, some days shorts were even hard to come by. Ling fishing on the other hand has been extraordinary through this all.
interesting. Thanks so much for watching!
Nice job! I’m a big fan of bottom fishing also we’re going to try and head out for tuna next week hopefully
Good luck!
I like the sea bass better myself, another Great video Capt. Chris. Keep ‘em coming. 👍🏻🍻
Thanks! Will do!
Hahaha, "can you get me a plate," "remove the seal." My wife would have done the exact same thing. Good trip bro. Doesn't seem like the seismic blasting caused any problems on this trip. I'm torn on the subject because if they let us fish the windmills, it would be a good benefit as they will attract so much life. I think similar to oil rig fishing. Just the surveying for the install is really annoying to everything. Not to mention the loss of the horizon view...bunch of windmills. As for fishing them, I'm optimistic. Bet I'm going to get flamed for my opinion. Anyway, hope to see you out there someday...I'm out of Cape May. Thanks for all your videos...I enjoy them all.
It’s also ‘if’ they let us fish near them. I already saw some stuff about terror concerns and possible exclusion zones. I’m completely against them because wind energy just isn’t the answer. The seismic testing is definitely harmful and who knows what consequences construction will have, and the vibrations and oil leaks and what not after. I would welcome an oil rig like you said, because at least it’s not just a money pit to line our politicians pockets. More structure off our coast would definitely be awesome, I just don’t think this is the right kind.
@@jd12elephantbingo! I don’t want to roast this guy and his original comment, but there just needs to be more education and awareness about what is going on. Most have only heard what legacy media outlets and government has told them and have not dug deeper to see the other side of the coin, the things they don’t want you to know.
His comment makes me believe he thinks the turbines will have supports like oil rigs (jacket foundations) or like the much smaller sized turbines in block island (which have wildly underperformed, example: 4 of the 5 don’t spin at all for a 9 month STRAIGHT period within the year or so because they were down for repair. Heck, they were built in 2016! (supposed to last 30 years!?). The turbines off jersey wont have jacket foundations, but be monopoles with very little low lying scour protection around the base that likely will get silted over in no time.
as of right now they say no restriction on fishing them, just cant tie off. But, we all know that is subject to change like we saw in other countries.
the construction process is brutal and will be done for decades of our coast if this is allowed (have you seen the number of lease sites and size?!)
lets also not forget about the fact that they will not generate the energy they say they will. they cannot meet our energy demand. they are SO costly and the energy bills will be wild. have you looked at the rates??
its all subsidized and NJ residents wont even get the energy credits, murphy signed that away to give to the wind companies when they said they needed more money for the project because inflation is killing them. well, guess what, the inflation is killing middle america too and those tax credits were supposed to be used to help subsidize the energy price burden rate payers and tax payers are taking the full brunt of now!
if they really cared about carbon emissions they would be investing in nuclear, a highly efficient, on demand, cost effective energy source that just so happens to NOT produce carbon emissions. but, that unfortunately doesnt fit the narrative and not on the agenda to make a lot of people a lottt of money who are not you nor i brother.
if chris or any of you guys want to learn more i highly suggest you check out protectourcoastNJ.com or find me on facebook and shoot me a message. id be happy to share more.
Great video Capt! I enjoy ling better than black sea bass. The cooking at the end is the best part.
thanks for the tip. And thanks so much for watching!
Congrats on hitting 15k
Thank you so much!
REAPER!! 🤘🏼🙏🙏🤘🏼
I’m new to the channel. I found you because I was searching for Contender T 25 boats I’m interested in buying.
Though I don’t watch many anglers from other areas (I’m in W. Central Fla.) I really like your show.
I noticed in your final still shots your wife and someone else were holding Snook. Where did you catch them..?? I thought they don’t go as north as NJ.
Anyway great show. You’ve made me more interested in the Contender. Cape Horn was in the running Anna the man that circled you I believe was in one.
I’ve subscribed. Keep on being a down to earth guy. That’s why I’ve enjoyed your videos. 👍🏼
Thanks so much for watching and subscribing. We caught that snook near Cape Coral. I posted another snook vid from Sebastian Inlet just a few weeks ago. I went to college at Florida Tech in Melbourne, Fl so it's like my second home
@@reaperfishingnj8623would you say your Contender is worth the price. I bought a new pathfinder 2400 open for the best of both worlds here in the Gulf of Mexico but I get battered going 40 miles offshore on a GLASS like day. I’m selling and looking for a contender 25t. I’m hoping it will be a considerable smoother ride in relatively calm waters. My Montauk 170 rode much better than Pathfinder.
I use to live line begalls..caught some nice fish at mansquan inlet when nobody else was catching
Ah now that's a good idea
@@reaperfishingnj8623 years back I met a guy who used small live black fish to catch big stripers in the Atlantic City area..he said it was illegal, and he was a wanted man..I always wondered if bergalls could be used the same way..
Not enough ling love out there 🤙🏻
they're so fun
I almost guarantee that first wreck was loaded with sand eels. We were in the same depth earlier that week and they didn’t want the clam. Just jigs. And even then, the big ones were picky and didn’t want to eat… also Ling is the winner for me. Great with butter lemon sauce
I tried a few sand eel jig mimmics. No dice.
Couple of nice biscuits. I'm only a few minutes past that nice eels release. Can't get past that. If ya have a smoker, try throwing one of those bad boys on it. Leroys fish market in Atlantic Highlands had em a lot when i was a kid. My dad got me hooked on em when i was knee high to a grasshopper. Not easy to find em nowadays. I get them when i can.
Alright, gonna watch the rest.
Edit.
Ok now it's too much. Yer killin me. Nice jumbos but that 2nd eel. Haha, I'll drive down n pick him up. I'll buy ya some sword fish bait. 😂
Smoked eel is the cats meow man. Ya gotta try it.
By the way the bow of that sweet CC loks so much more fishable. Fish able. Looks killer. ❤
The meat sure does look pretty damn good!
@@reaperfishingnj8623 it is a bit oily but I think that helps keep it from drying out in the smoker.
What’s up with big reaper? I really enjoyed watching you work on her in previous vids.
rudder shaft packing was leaking. then we needed a new rudder linkage. now the generator is busted. it never ends
Major googans 19:35
nah. They were just over thinking it. Seemed like nice guys
it's a baby whale Jay!
ha.
Hey Chris is that a 72” or a 87”
87
@@reaperfishingnj8623 thank you
Do you typically lose cell service around that 100 ft area and need an EPIRP/inReach or are you comfortable with a VHF at that distance?
I have TMobile. I only get cell service out to about 6-8 miles. I always have my life raft with me on the Contender. As a general rule you should always have the life raft, inreach, sat phone, epirb any time you're past a few miles offshore
All of the wrecks out there why do people have to be on top of you
they were cool. Usually if I pull up on a wreck and someone is already fishing it I just move on to the next
My wife calls ling "poor mans cod"
it's pretty damn good
It definitely isn’t good for the ocean
most certainly not!
You know people kept making music after 1970, right? I don’t get how ppl like you listen to the same bunch of songs your whole life.
everything in that vid was 80's or 90's mate. I can't even fathom listening to that garbage they call music nowadays!! Only a few things I've ever liked in the 2000s
There hasn't been much music since the '60s..maybe the early punk years ...sorry
What a joke 12.5 inches thats so small they need to change the regs to 17 for seabass
poor jersey ppl run 30mi to catch 14" fish
agreed man. Typically we only keep fish that are easily 15-16" and up. But I guess our fishery is falling off or the surveying really is making a difference
@@fishingguuru6888 sure does suck huh
