BELMAR MARINA CHARTER BOATS UNABLE TO LEAVE PORT TODAY DUE TO DAMAGE TO ROUTE 71 DRAWBRIDGE FROM NOR’EASTER, WHICH REMAINS IN THE DOWN POSITION. The boats have not been able to leave since a week ago Saturday due to the storm, and now the mechanical failure of the bridge. DOT says they’re working “round the clock” to fix the issue. Salt water got inside the mechanical room, according to Belmar mayor who spoke with DOT a short time ago.BELMAR MARINA CHARTER BOATS UNABLE TO LEAVE PORT TODAY DUE TO DAMAGE TO ROUTE 71 DRAWBRIDGE FROM NOR’EASTER, WHICH REMAINS IN THE DOWN POSITION.

The weather is better – are the blues still in Raritan Bay?

Dave Lilly hasn’t been seeing blues in Raritan Bay this year, but that has changed with a northeaster blowing for days with nothing in the forecast below 30 knots.

The Goldden Eagle from Belmar reports “The BLUES continue to bite!

It took a little while to get them started today, but once they got going, we had a good pick for most of the day where we held a couple of fish on. We would get lulls when the BLUES backed off before coming back to a pick and, at times, we had shots of up to 5 BLUES on at once!

We finished up with MANY LIMITS of BLUES, along with a nice showing of JUMBO SEA BASS on board!

 It was another solid day of BLUEFISH action!The BLUES continue to bite!
