by Even marginable weather days usually haven’t slowed striper fishing in Raritan Bay this spring. Charter boat reports remained very good today, and the forecast is for east winds at just 5-10 knots.
The N.J. surf is slowly coming to life. Mike Monte cast a white Bomber in the Monmouth County surf and broke the ice this season with a schoolie.
Absecon Bay Sportsman Center reported an unusual catch of a legal bass right in Absecon Creek rather than the backwaters. That 31-incher hit a Berkley paddle tail.
Vinny D’Anton has been working hard to catch a few fish by wading in the Sarasota area, but came up with a beauty yesterday on a DOA Shrimp – a 24.5-inch spotted sea trout.
Fish were a lot easier to come by this morning when Vinny joined a guided boat trip. The guide castnetted small greenbacks which were gobbled up by snook and other species as Vinny said he must have released about 40 fish!
