Might be a good idea to bring rain gear today! Showers forecasted later in the day may make things a little on the wet side. Never the less, small blues continue to run the surf line. You know the drill cut bunker and mullet will attract these always hungry blues. Small poppers, small metals and small swimmers…

The surf is back to normal, mullet is still running the beaches with small blues in pursuit. Still a little early for the big bass to arrive but shorts to keepers will show when you least expect them especially on the night tides. Poppers, swimmers and metals are all good choices, while mullet fished cut and…

Rough surf continues today with the wind starting to lay down a bit. Sunday looks like the better of the two day weekend with light ENE 10 to 15 MPH winds forecasted. With plenty of bait around both mullet and large bunker the fish can’t be far behind. A good plan of attack in these conditions is to…

Not your perfect surf fishing day by a long shot! High winds and rain will make conditions unbelievably challenging. Days like this is a great time to go over your tackle for the up coming fall run. Fresh line and new sharp hooks should be your main concern followed by a inspection of your rods.…

Today and tomorrow is your last shot at fluke for the 2016 season. But right now some nice keepers 18″ to 20″ are being taken in the surf. Natural baits seem to be doing the ticket on these late season fluke. Live killies, mullet, cut bunker and squid all seem to be doing the trick right…

Things are starting to heat up! Slammer blues, keeper bass and nice size fluke all have been taken in the surf the past couple of days. I’m not talking blitz here but a good sign that the fall run is on it’s way. More and more bait has been leaving the bays attracting these fish.…
