The great weather continues at the shore! Ocean beaches were the spot to be to beat the heat and get some fish for for dinner. The fluke fishing on the beach has dropped off a bit due to the drop in water temperature, but blow fish, and king fish are picking up the slack. There…

Slow pick on our ocean beaches continues! Bass, blues, fluke, and king fish are the targets when they are present. Cut bait remains the way to go. Bunker, clams, and squid are the top three baits. For those who just can’t seem to fish bait, the choice is metal and small swimmers (bomber and SP…

Same story as yesterday a little slow on the surf. Bring your rain gear for today as you should not have a hard time finding spots to fish. We are still seeing some nice sized crabs coming in from our rental boats and from the dock. Mario

Pretty much the same story on the surf with the South wind. Bass and blues are there but you have to work for them. Crabbing in the back has been good with our boats coming in with a decent catch and also the dock is producing a nice amount of keepers for the table. Mario

The surf outlook remains the same! Blue fish in the 2lb-5lb class along with short to keeper size bass moving in and out. Fluke in the surf is a matter of finding what cut or drop off they are holding in and a well placed bait will often do the trick. I’m hearing king fish…

More of the same! We seem to be stuck in this holding pattern on our beaches, slow pick of bass and blues on cut baits, with some keeper fluke mixed in with the shorts in the wash. King fish are starting to show in the surf and they will take a variety small cut baits…

We seem to be in a holding pattern this week with nothing new to report that’s not been going on the last few days. Chance of showers today with decreasing heat may make things a little more bearable on the beach, move out some of the flies and possibly wake up some of the fish.…

I guess this heat is keeping some fisherman home in their air conditioning but the few willing to brave the heat were picking at some keeper bass both on bait and swimming plugs. Their has been some talk that along with the blow fish taking small pieces of clam king fish are starting to show…
