Guppy, here is a message I posted June 4. I was also trying to fill in while you were sick, posted some reports, but they seemed to have disappeared? Any idea why?
Also, sorry people are mad that you are speaking the truth about ibsp. I wanted to say something in support, but don't know where to post it? plse advise, tks, Dark
[Guppie, you made an honest point there, and it deserves a response. I wonder how many people come here every day to check the reports, yet don't feel this site is worthy to contribute to? Don't people think you can check IP's?
I could understand if you think this site sux, where you wouldn't be interested in the info Guppie puts out. But you're right - many people come here, day after day, and don't think to help you out with some reports.
I'm one of those guilty ones, Guppie, so people can cast the first stones at me. But I appreciate the reports from Guppie's corner of the world, and will stand up for her.
She's a chick, she baits her own hooks, fishes in all kinds of weather, and has a lot of love and respect for the man she met many years ago, Don.
How many of us mooks are lucky enough to be as fortunate as Don?
The only thing I can think that might cause tension is that some people feel you give out too much info.
Maybe you could have a pay section of your reports for the regular reports written by you, charge maybe $12/yr for access, and eff the free-loaders. Also, blitz and specific location info would then only be shared by your loyal members, and people might be cool with that, even the guppie haters. ]
DarkSkies,
I want to thank you for your kind words, no I am not perfect, wish I were, I do all the thing you say, I do know I have a few Guppie Haters. I could never ask any one to pay for reports, if any one wants to I would more then glad send them a PM on to exactly where to fish, I give an area now because of the past pressure I was getting, and as well as to respect a few anglers wish who put many hours in to fishing. people just have to take me for what I am and who I am, I am me and won't change any of my ways , not after almost being 60 LOL. You do have a point about sharing reports, Thats why I have forums, any member can post a report. Many of my members became friends, beach buddies, I would introduce some amglers on the beach to one another, It's been good for 5 years now.
I seem to be attracted to Grumpys bait shop because they are well respectable business men, the kid they have working there Ray is also a respectable kid, Paul is the sweet heart, That's why I recomemd that shop to many anglers.
We all have our bad moments at times, but we get over it and go on with life, some just live with bad moments forever. No need for you to feel guilty about not sharing reports, it would be nice and helpful to put reports in my forums, no need to feel guilty if you don't .
Lots of anglers met one another that way and became friends., It realy does not bother me much about not many posting reports. At times I can't take stress, I am worried about having major surgery in late august, I am a high risk patient, I want to make sure I am OK for when my daughter in law has her little bundle if Joy in November, I have a lot on my mind and I fly off the handle and say I had it with reports, but once I calm down I think Why would I make a fool spoil what I love doing, if I do stop fishing reports, I am the fool. Again Thanks for the kind words and try again going in to my forums, I looked for your June 3rd posts and did not find any thing, maybe they got lost in cyber world.LOL
Sorry about your posts not being there, I donot have the answer as to why. Guppie

Many times I have fished Island Beach State Park, when getting home from an hour drive I check out what you had to say, now hear me Gupp, every time you were right on the nose with your information, had I listen to what I read before I left my house I could have saved about $75.00 between bait, gas, tackle food. A west wind at IBSP can be real bad with the green flies.
I know some nice doormats have been caught on boats, fishing the rips and the right tide can help surf anglers.
As far as I am concerned your the best, you have put so many anglers on to some mighty fun fishing. I enjoy going in to grumpys Bait & tackle, I also stop at the hook house to see Dennis, both shops are honest, Paul told me and warned me not to fish one day last week at the Island, He said the wind is West and you'll get eaten alive,well I bought my bait there any way, I should have listened to him the flies were bad, I left, the beach was empty, I saw more 4 wheel drives leave the beach early that morn.
I had the fresh bait ready for my next trip down.
By the way , I ended up going to Huddy Park Sunday, nailed a bunch of peanut bunker, salted them down and vacum packed them, they still look as fresh as when I caught them sunday, you saved me about 25 doz.that's almost $80.00 on bait for my next hopefully fluke fishing trip when the ocean calms down a little.
on bait, if all fails , I'll use them for crab bait.I hope to see you and Don @ Island Beach next Sunday. Thanks for all your great reports .
Snake man.
Thanks for all your kind words, I guess some people will always be what they are and will not change, some act as if they are mad at the world, they are what and who they are .

Captain Carl Sheppard of “The Starfish” from the Beach Haven Charter Fishing Association had fishing over the past weekend that ranged from great to fair.
On Friday his party caught bluefish and over 75 catch and release sea bass.
One monster 22.5 incher was caught by the only female angler aboard. On Sunday, only 20 sea bass came over the rail in addition to numerous sharks and sea robins.
Captain Adam Nowalsky of the “Karen Ann II” out of Great Bay Marina also found up and down wreck fishing recently.
Tony Marhan of Long Branch and Mark Zuccarello of Philadelphia each had limit catches of sea bass to 4-pounds. The wrecks have been hit hard and are giving up less fish.
Nowalsky has heard of good fluking in the back bay, but the 18-inch limit makes keepers few and far between.
Captain Frank Camarda of the “Miss Beach Haven” reports finding quality size sea bass in 75-85 feet of water.
Pool winner Sunday was Greg Ivanchik of Holgate with a 3-pound fish.
Captain George Finck of “Sparetime Charters” took friends out and snagged and live lined bunker for a 32-pound beauty.
Captain Bob Gerkens ran his boat the “Hot Tuna” up from Morehead City, NC. On the way he picked up some mahi, false albacore, amber jack, and some yellow fin tuna.
He also picked up some bluefish for mako shark bait later this month. The “Hot Tuna” is now berthed in Beach Haven and ready for action.

Here is this week’s fishing report for the Beach Haven Charter Fishing Association.
The attached picture is of Patrick Sounders and Alex Bayer with their catch of big bluefish caught in Great Bay while fishing with Captain Fran Verdi.
Jim Hutchinson Sr.
The Beach Haven Charter Fishing Association reports some decent catches of bluefish and sea bass despite recent bad weather.
Captain Adam Nowalsky of the “Karen Ann” out of Great Bay Marina reports sea bass are moving onto the local wrecks with some jumbos up to 4-pounds being caught.
He has also heard of some large weakies in the back creeks of Great Bay. Captain Fran Verdi on “Fish the Drop Off” had Patrick Souders and Alex Bayer out last week and did well trolling for bluefish in Great Bay.
The best action was on the outgoing tide on blues in the 8-10 pound class. Another trip with Bert Saum, Sean Carey, and Chris Flowers only produced one bluefish along with plenty of dogfish.
Northeast winds and cold rain cooled off the fishing. Additional information on the association can be found at www.fishbeachhaven.com

Guppie,
I just wanted to tell you kids that from who ever that you are getting your second hand information from is DEAD ON! Which is greatly appreciated! I give it back when I'm out.
Today I was on the beach nailing Blues from 2 pounders up to 29 inches.
Here are some of the pictures that I took.
The only one around me was a Red Fox. Keep up the great work on your website and thanks again for doing what you and Don are doing.
