No excuse! We have fish in our area, so why aren’t you fishing? The past few days has produced bass to 30 lbs. and a few medium to large size bluefish. Cut bunker and clams top the bait list, while SP style swimming plugs and metals will cover your artificial needs. We have everything you need including live eels, so…

North west winds today should bring better surf conditions. Things are starting to clean up after the latest NE blow. Keeper bass were being taken yesterday in IBSP on clams and cut bunker. Holding bottom with bait proved to be a bit challenging but not impossible. I gave it a shot yesterday myself just to see…

Remember the fish are already wet! Yes, rain gear needed today and tomorrow according to the forecast. But easterly winds and rain don’t seem to bother the fish much just the fisherman. The bite remains the best at dusk, through the night and at first light. Swimming plugs and metals will suit you fine as…

Cold nights should bring hot action soon! Water temperatures are slowly falling thanks to the cooler nights and favorable wind directions. These conditions should jump start the bass bite in our area. A few nice bass have found there way to local scales falling to cut bunker and swimming shad style lures. Low light and…

The easterly winds have brought a few keeper bass to the local scales yesterday and early this AM. The majority of the fish taken were on cut bunker. But live eels and clams are always go to baits this time of year. If you are having a hard time finding fresh bunker in our area,…

Feels like fall, but that’s a good thing. With cooling air temperatures along with dropping water temperatures and add to that plenty of bait, these three factors should increase the bass bite in our area. Not much doing on daylight tides right now but low light and first light is a different matter. Small to…

A change in wind direction today may increase the bite! The north winds today should bring a increase in the shore bite. Water temps are around 60 degrees but that should drop some with the wind shift the next two days. Small blues and small to keeper size bass are still in and out of the surf…

Yesterday afternoon sure didn’t feel like fall with air temps in the mid 70’s and bright sun. But do not despair, check your calendars the fall run of fish is still coming, we will see some nice fish making their way to the scales with surf and boat anglers hot in pursuit. For now small blues and…

All the stars are in place! Surf conditions, water temps, and tons of bait all spell feeding fish on a fall migration. So where are all these fish exactly? Just ask the boat guys, they are trolling them, jigging them and the ever popular snag and drop method are all taking place just off shore way out…

Some surf caught keeper bass finding their way to the scales the last few days! Keeper size bass have been falling to swimming plugs at and before first light. There is tons of minnow size bait right now in the surf, so small swimmers and thin metals are the ticket. Still plenty of small blues…
