NE wind cut back on fishing

It appears that the northeast wind forecast cut back on fishing activity today because there was a lack of reports. Even the Big Mohaw from Belmar had cancelled, but Capt. Ron Santee went “Fishing in the snot” with his Fishermen from Atlantic Highlands.

Santee started in more protected waters, and had a few keeper stripers before dealing with the wind on a rough ocean. Fortunately, his anglers got into lots of big bass up to 40 pounds.

A small craft advisory remains up tonight for NE gusts to 30 knots. Fortunately, the morning starts better with the same wind direction, but at only 5-10 knots plus morning rain.
