Point report, 26 July 03

and Suck.


Any piece of bait you throw will be consumed within 30 seconds by a 5ft wide butterfly ray. I suppose that could be fun, but only for the first or second one. After a dozen, it gets old.

There are a few blues around, but they are many many casts apart.

The geography of the Point has changed radically in the past 2 weeks- the sandbar that was forming to the north has joined up with the old tip of the Point, and there is a big basin inside of it. I guess 2 months of SW blow has really taken its toll.

C'est la vie.

Sorry about your luck, the rays can be a real pain in the summer. I won't go to the Point this time of year, have much better luck North or South.

Thanks for the report.....a bad report is better than "no" report

Hey Wiz...
Point wasn't my first choice either, but I was trying to catch up with some other folks and thought they were out there. Found one of them, then I decided as long as I was there, I'd soak a few. I was hoping there might be some teeth swimming around, but no such luck.

Saw a guy with some citation spots on the north side of OI yesterday. Weed is thick on strong tide, nearly unfishable. I got a 4" croaker, guy next to me had a 5" flounder. It was comical. I put the croak out on a big line, but no dice. I think I'll fish the creek in Engelhard today.
