Providing All Your Fishing and Recreational Needs

The fishing has been improving by the day. Bass and now blues are out front in increasing numbers. Both bait and lures are working on these fish equally. No crabs as of yet out back off the dock, but with the water warming by the day the crabs should be here soon. We have fresh bunker,…

We had a nice keeper bass hit our scale yesterday afternoon. Allen Moglia weighed in a 33″ 16lb bass, taken on a chunk of bunker in the Ortley Beach area. There is still a lot of shorts out there, but more and more keepers each day are being taken. SP minnows, clams and cut bunker are…

Great weather and fish the are starting to bite, what more can we ask for? Short to keeper size bass are taking SP minnows along with clams and cut bunker along our beaches. Most of the action has been coming on the back side of high tide. No real hot spot to report, these fish are being taken from Ortley…

Big blues off our dock!! >> Late yesterday afternoon was the start of the spring bluefish run out back off our pier.The long awaited yellow eyed slammers are out back! Blues in the double digit weight class were being taken on cut bunker. It’s sure is good to see these tackle busters in our part…

The bluefish finally made a hello call yesterday in both our inlets, Manasquan and Barnegat alike. No blitz by any means but a fair showing by these yellow eyed tackle busters never the less. Action on small bass is starting to heat up out front on the night tides, this action is coming mostly all on bait… John Yac

Great weather forecasted for today! Bait is starting to appear out front and that’s always a good sign. The bay is still producing small to keeper size bass on both bait and lures alike. We’re still waiting for the spring run of slammers to arrive in the bay, any day now for sure, “we hope”… John Yac

Small to keeper size bass seem to be spread out in the back bay in all the usual spots. The number one bait for these spring bass is blood worms by far, with small swimmers and rubber jigs also doing the job. No bluefish action as of yet but that should change real soon… John…

Fresh bunker are finely in along with nice size bloodworms and fresh clams. No blues yet. The bay is giving up small bass mostly on blood worms and black fish fever as of April 1st. 4 fish per man at 15″ is drawing some attention.

Finally some warmer weather! We have sand worms at $13.50 a doz., large surf clams at $7.00 a doz. and fresh bunker will arrive today! No real news on the spring bluefish run yet, but that should change any day. The bay is loaded with bait and small bass in all the usual spots…John Yac
