Nice day today, not so nice tomorrow! Thinking of hitting the beach this week, well today is the day for tomorrow is forecasted to be a washout. The rough surf is starting to lay down so holding bottom and fishing in close is becoming much easier. You can add king fish to the available daytime…

Better weather is on the way! At least thats what the forecast says. Fishing remains the same, fluke fishing on beach or boat is steady with small blues mixed in here and there. Night time sharking from our beaches continues. Crabbing is slow right now… John Yac

It’s going to be a hot one today! There is no place like the beach to help deal with the heat, and if you’re like any red blooded surf fisherman, being at the beach means rod in hand and trying your luck. Fluke and small blues are there for the taking should you be in the…

The fluke keeper to short ratio has been on the rise the past few days with shore and boat anglers alike. Reports of some nice weakfish being taken in Barnegat Inlet from the north and south jetty’s. Nights are still filled with large rays and some nice sharks. Crabbing remains a job of weeding through a ton of shorts but some…

This could be a no flies beach day! North east winds in the forecast spells no flies along our eastern shore beaches. Cocktail blues along with short to keeper size fluke are in and out of the wash by day, while large rays and sharks are being played with on most nights. A lot of short…

Other than some decent night time action with sharks and rays the days have been a slow pick. Part of the reason I think for the slow daytime bite is the ocean water temps are holding above normal. Once we get passed these dog days and get into a good stretch of southerly winds water…

Looking for some relief from the heat and humidity? Standing at the waters edge is one way, and why not fish while you’re there. Summertime spells delicious fluke fillets for dinner. Surf fishing for fluke is simple and relaxing. A small to medium size light weight spinning rod with a buck tail jig tipped with gulp…

Some times more of the same isn’t all that bad! Sunshine low humidity and average temperatures along with  favorable winds for the most part make up one great day for the beach. Fishing for this time of year remains typical in the surf, small to keeper size fluke, small blues and a sprinkle of king fish…

Today’s weather may be not so great but the rest of the weekend into Monday looks just fine. Finding keeper fluke in the surf is no easy task right now, the more ground you can cover the better your odds of connecting. Lets not forget IBSP allows (2) fluke at 16″ only as your bag…
