The Latest and Most Relevant Fishing Updates You Should Know

The bass run is on! The past two day both boat and surf guys have been enjoying bends in their rods. Bass up to 30 plus lbs. have been making there way to local sales. The boats are using the snag and drop method along with trolling to score on these big girls. The surf fish have been on mostly poppers in all sizes and you know the old adage, big bait big fish. Cut baits and clams along with live eels are working on the night tides but are also worth trying during the day... John Yac

Don't let a little cold weather keep you at home! With plenty of bait out front, keeper bass and now you can add a few slammer blues to the mix, home shouldn't be an option. Poppers and swimmers with teasers at first light and at dusk with cut baits and clams by day. Remember we have LIVE EELS and LIVE GREEN crabs to add to your bait choices... John Yac

Some large bunkers in close, but not many fish on them! The bait supply in the surf remains plentiful. The number of keeper bass on them is increasing daily just not as quick as we would like to see, but it will happen real soon! Cut baits and clams always work on these fish especially at night, but poppers by day and swimmers both day and night are also scoring on these fish. The back bay by IBSP has been seeing some large blues taking popping plugs giving anglers a run for their money... John Yac

One extra layer today! Other than that business as usual. Numbers of keeper bass on the rise especially on the night tides. Daylight hours will bring small bluefish into the mix. Tons of small rain fish along our beaches with large bunker schools off shore. Air temperatures will increase as the week progresses... John Yac

All types of bait out front in the surf with the number of fish on them slowly increasing. Blues and keeper bass are enjoying the selection of baits now present in the surf. No big numbers with bass but the night time bite is out producing the daytime. These fish are taking both cut natural baits and artificial lures. Swimmers, with a teaser out front and poppers are leading the pack right now on the artificial front. Mullet, cut bunker and clams are always good bets in the bait department... John Yac
