Damien Zusi with the winning Striped Bass weighing in at 33 lbs was boated on Will Tregarthen's boat Capt. Surly. The winning Bluefish weighed in at 13 lbs and was caught by Ted Aerni on Brian Doherty's boat Underdog
Another windy weekend made the fishing difficult in the Great South Bay so it was no surprise that the anglers that were able to venture out of the inlet were rewarded with big fish. Fisherman who fished in the the bay struggled with dirty water and lack of bait compliments of the never ending west blow. Many boats fished hard all day and never had a touch. My boat the Argo managed two small fish, one on an Eel and the other on a plug with the total weight of both Bass less the twenty pounds. Angler Luke Belford aboard Gary Arnold's boat "Special K" managed a 24.2 ounce Striper in the murky bay water that was good for third place. The winning Bass was taken in the ocean off of Tobay where bait made a brief appearance. The sharp crew aboard the "Capt. Surly" took advantage of situation and weighed in the winning fish that was boated by Damien Zusi.
After the weigh-in and the prize money was handed out the Cole family of the Kismet Inn once again provided a great buffet and party.
