While on a charter fishing boat that several of my friends and I had chartered for our last fishing trip of 2014. We left the docks in Oceanside, New York located on the south shore of Long Island and headed out to the Atlantic Ocean for some Black Fishing which we were lucky to charter this boat on the last day of the Black Fishing season. The day could not have started out any more perfect as we fueled up got our barrel of crabs that Black Fish love and quickly made a bee-line to an area that the captain had been very successful in limiting out on all his Black Fish trips this year. Along with everything concerning the fuel, bait and getting off right away we could not have asked for a more gorgeous day to go fishing on the 14th day of December. As we hit the Atlantic Ocean I looked out the back of the cabin where me and several of my friends were anxiously waiting to get to the fishing grounds. I grabbed my camera as the ocean conditions were not rough and began to look around when this view caught my eye. I thought it would be perfect with the fishing poles on each side of the back of the boat and in the middle some of the crabs that we were getting ready to put on our hooks as soon as we anchored at our destination. I always love the waves and the way the boat gives off the wakes as the boat was flying through the water in extremely calm conditions. The depth conditions were great for taking this photo and the clarity in the sky and in the ocean made it that much better. I quickly took several shots and just as I was finishing my first couple of ocean scenic shots for the day we came to a halt and began to anchor up for what was going to prove to be a fantastic day of fishing as we all limited out on Black Fish.
