Stripers may outlast party boats

Striped bass fishing is showing no signs of coming to an end, but party boat anglers may be having a hard time finding a boat to fish for them soon.

The Golden Eagle from Belmar is making its last two 6:30 a.m. striper trips Wednesday and Thursday — and the Fishermen from Atlantic Highlands may finish up on Sunday.

The forecast is better, with east winds at just 5 knots before switching to north in the afternoon. However, there is a chance of rain or snow in the morning.
