Happy Boxing Day

Blackfish, Fishing Reports, Tautog -

Happy Boxing Day

First, shop news…

For those out and about on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day, we will be open during our normal winter hours of operation, ie. 7:00 am until 7:00 pm, each day. 

If you are ordering from the online store on Friday, Saturday or Sunday, due to some construction going on in our building, your order will not ship until Monday.  And since Scott is involved in the construction, there is the distinct possibility of some unplanned destruction happening before the construction can commence, so there is a slight possibility the length of shipment delay will change.  To be clear, both Grumpys online store and Grumpy’s Brick and Mortar shop will be open.  We are working on another part of our building.

As far as the fishing goes, we don’t have much to report.  The weather the past few days has been good, but with the holidays we don’t believe many anglers hit the surf.

We have heard the blackfishing on some of the local reefs and wrecks has been pretty good.  You may want to hop on a charter or party boat and give that a shot.

Our cover shot is a throwback to @lizzyribas who landed a solid striped bass on a pencil popper.

If you come by this weekend, you may catch Scott working on his ongoing construction/renovation project.  Here is a preview of what you will likely see.  What song is he singing?  “All The Single Ladies” by Beonce.
