The Latest and Most Relevant Fishing Updates You Should Know

Wow! It seems like the first round of the fall run came to a screeching halt! Those massive schools of bunker are gone for the moment and so are the bass and whales that were gorging themselves on them. Hopefully there will be more where that came from, so now it's good time to go over your tackle that has just been put to the test over the past couple of weeks. That old favorite reel that you have been holding on to may be ready for replacement now. We have just the reel for you! The Tsunami Saltx in the STX4000 and STX6000 models at the new reduced price of $299.00 truly a strong well built reel. You also know whats coming next, SP minnow and teaser time. We have selected 3 packs of these good producing lures for $25.00 while they last!

Every surf fisherman in our area has to know by now that the fall run started off with a bang! The long Nor'easter surely got the bunker schools on the move with the big girls in hot in pursuit. When the schools of bunker are within casting range fishing whole or cut bunker will get you hooked up. Metal lipped swimmers, large poppers, polaris and pencil styles will all gain the the feeding fish's attention.

FYI: The Dock Cafe fall hours are Thurs. thru Mon. for breakfast and lunch.

Surf conditions after the big nor'easter are almost back to normal. Still a bit dirty, with some extra white water around. Our local beaches didn't take the beating everyone expected, if anything some extra nice cuts were added. One more day should do the trick and it should be business as usual. Lets keep our fingers crossed that some bait moves back in and the fish just to our north slide down!

The fall run is off to a good start! Schools of mullet are running the beaches with blues and a few bass hot on their trail. Albies are also in the mix as they move in and out of casting range. Fluke season is closed now but there are some nice kingfish still available. Today's forecast looks favorable for giving the surf a go. High tide is at 10:09 AM in our area. The weekend seems iffy though due to the remnants of Ian being off our coast.

Last two days for a shot at those tasty flatties! Yes Sept. 27th marks the last day for the fluke season 2022. IBSP remains the first choice for surf anglers seeking this great table fair. Bucktails tipped with Gulp is still the go to bait being used. A few nice Albies have been taken over the past several days, epoxy jigs, small deadly dicks, and small diamond jigs will all work. Just lighten up your tackle and speed up your retrieve. Small blues are still chasing schools of mullet when present.
