The Latest and Most Relevant Fishing Updates You Should Know

Looking for a Grand Slam in surf fishing? Now is a great time to give it a try. Blue fish, keeper size bass and keeper size fluke are all in the surf right now. The fish are being taken on all the usual cut baits, bunker, clam and squid. Poppers, metals and buck tail jigs tipped with gulp or gulp fished alone cover the artificial scene. The bay has a few 2 to 3 lb blues being taken on small metals and small chunks of bunker. Keeper size crabs are starting to find their way into the pots but not in any great numbers. Some nice softies were scooped from the pilings yesterday, always a pleasant surprise... John Yac PS: Shop Help Wanted call 732-830-8171 ask for Tom or John

It sure was a great weekend for the Jersey Shore, great weather and good fishing! Sunday afternoon a 47.5 lb bass made its way to our scale, the fish was caught out front by boat on bunker. With less of a crowd and a decent forcast, today should be a great one to be at the waters edge with a fishing rod in hand... John Yac

LAND OF THE FREE BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE. Happy Memorial Day! The weather is great and the fish are cooperating what more can a angler possibly want? Small to teen size blues continue to roam the surf along with keeper size bass. We can now add to that mix a few nice size fluke that are starting to show up in the surf, so you might want to add some Gulp to your bait selection before heading to the beach. The shop has fresh bunker and clams along with our full line of frozen goodies. Still not much doing out back, some small blues were taken off our dock yesterday.... John Yac

And the beat goes on!! Blue fish and bass in the surf from Lavallette to Island Beach State Park. Boats are still taking the lions share of the larger bass being cought. The bay out back behind our shop produced a few nice blues taken on cut baits and metals yesterday. Still no real crabs to speak of as yet, but we expect them to start any day. Small catches of keeper size crabs are coming from lagoons just off the bay in overnight traps. We have plenty of fresh bunker, clams and all kinds of frozen baits. Large Gibbs Pro Series pencil and polaris poppers are now in stock... John Yac
