First pomp of the new year

j_purdy · 01-12-2008, 06:15 PM

Met up with Ray(Konz), Jeff(crazyfire) and his dad at chickenbone this AM for a little fishing. The water looked clean and the surf was minimal with the North wind. Fishing the outgoing tide with fresh peeled shrimp, I landed a nice pomp in the 14-15 inch range. Not too much else to report. We saw some bait being worked over by birds and a few bluefish skipping in the surf. Two guys down from us caught a pomp just beforeI had to leave around 10:30. I left the pomp with the guys as they were staying most of the day. Hopefully they'll let us know how they did, too. No pics-sorry. Tight lines everyone.
