Captain Rich had the Jiminez charter aboard the Jersey Hooker 12/30. With mixed reports from other skippers, Capt. decided to head north of Barnegat inelt in search of fish, A few days earlier other boats had reported catches from Avon to Spring lake in 45 -65 feet of water. Captain Rich and crew were fishing an area off Island Beach State Park, The Jersey Hooker found herself surrounded by 6 other boats working the same area, Out of the 7 boats working these fishing grounds the Jersey Hooker was the only boat that managed to catch fish. The first fish was a 28 1/2 " bass weighing in at an amazing 11 3/4 pounds. The second fish was 33" long and weighed in at 14 1/2 pounds ( this was one of the heaviest 33" stripers Capt. Rich has ever seen) . It was a slow day aboard the Jersey Hooker but you cannot expect much more considering it was December 30th. Like always Capt Rich managed to put his charter on the fish.
