Last Spring was
FANTASTIC Striper Fishing! That turned
into the best "Summer" Striper I have ever heard of in South
Jersey. June and July had truly great
fishing and catching Stripers was actually possible thru August if you fished
the night and early morning tides.
Now as we come into
September, if the weatherman is willing, I expect to see the start of the best fall ever. I have done well during the last few
Septembers on Mullica River Schoolies and I had hoped that I would be fishing
every day by now. Unfortunately, Family
commitments have me tied up probably until October. I do believe that I will be 100% ready to hit
the Backwater Stripers hard starting the first week of October.
I will be taking
reservations immediately and I expect prime dates to be filling up fast.
If you make reservations, I will take names
and phone numbers right now. If you
don't have it please ask for my cellphone number at Absecon Bay Sportsman
Center 609-484-0409. I prefer voice
telephone confirmation, but under
current circumstances I will do everything by text if you prefer. Actually, it would be an excellent idea to
confirm all trips by text when we come to an agreement. I will do my best to get a calendar of open
and closed dates online and keep it current.
However, that can get difficult to keep up to date so don't assume
anything until I check my master calendar and confirm the date.
A $100 deposit will be required. You can leave it thru "Pay Pal" on
my web site www.abseconbay.com or call me with a
credit card when I get back to work the first week in October.
I have been giving a
lot of thought to pricing. I do my best
to give a good trip and I think my "Long Half Day" is an adequate
trip for even the most avid anglers. My
price is for the boat and I will keep my regular price the same as the last
couple years:
Long Half Day, at
least 4 hours lines in (You can figure 6 hours, dock to dock.) , 1 or 2 anglers
$400, 3 anglers $450. a 4th angler
usually works, but is not optimal, add $150.
I do love kids and young families so I may be willing to work a little
after the base price.
I will do my best to
add more information and trip details to the web site www.abseconbay.com and Facebook page www.facebook.com/fishabsecon
I hope to see many
of you in the boat this fall and if not get out on the water any way you can
and remember that Absecon Bay Sportsman Center is the best place to get all
your Striper Fishing Bait and Tackle.
Thanks, and see you
soon,
Capt. Dave Showell
