by There were no reports today, but Fisher Price IV had the following on Facebook which seemed to be for yesterday — though it could be for earlier in the week.
“One of the best bites of the fall this morning for our open boat trip. Doubles, triples and quadruple hookups all on live bunkers. Dozens of releases to 41# with a few personal bests broken. Called it an early morning once the bite shut down. Thanks for fishing hard guys.
Next open boat trips will be Tuesday 10/24 and Thursday 10/26. 6am-12pm. $180pp, not including tip for mate. Text 732-861-3394 for reservations.”
A gale watch is up tonight. The Sunday forecast is for west winds at 20-25 knots with gusts to 30 and 4-6-foot seas. When I was running out of Manasquan Inlet, I fished many days with a west gale as the hills to the north create a calm sea near shore. Boaters can fish safely within a half-mile or so — which is where the stripers should be on bunkers or for trolling.
