The beach bite of bass, blues and fluke continued yesterday out front. Bait remains the way to go on all three species. Cut bunker, clams, squid strips tipped with spearing or killies (if you can find them) are the baits of choice. Artificial choices remain from SP minnow style swimmers, poppers, and buck tails tipped…

Slow yesterday mostly due to the weather and lack of bait out front. Today’s forecast is much more conducive to surf fishing. Reports of small blues chasing bait with birds diving in the Lavallette Ortley beach area are coming into the shop. The bay bite is about the same and there is still a lack of crabs…

The pick of bass, blues and fluke in the surf continues. Mixed sizes of blues with small to keeper size fluke are still being taken from Barnegat Inlet to the south, and north to the Mathis/Tunney Bridge. FINALLY!, some keeper CRABS were taken yesterday off our dock, not a ton but definitely worth the time and effort trying… John…

The surf bite on cut bait yesterday in IBSP was on the up tic for sure. Several nice keeper bass were taken on cut bunker and a few anglers were reporting more then one keeper landed. Fluke fishing in the surf remains good from Lavallette thru IBSP. Bucktails tipped with gulp seem to be the…

We are in the slow pick mode for sure! Both the surf and boat guys alike are experiencing fish here and there but nothing to talk about for sure. Bluefish, bass and fluke are in the surf when you can find them willing to bite. Blue fishing in the bay is a little better with…

The beach bite has slowed some what possibly due to the on and off southerly winds of the past few days, which drops the water temperatures and slows down the bite. The bay on the other hand has been producing some nice bluefish action the past couple of days. The bridge areas and just off our…
