Jim Hutchinson Sr. says age is only in your mind. Dave Rinear and he went out of Barnegat Inlet in sub-freezing temperatures to catch 15 stripers in less than an hour before returning with their limits Dave is the young guy at 79!

Eric Kerber sent along this shot of his daughter Lyla (12) with her first striper.

Gerald Cece said Bay Head was the place for surfcasting this morning – “Lots of bass – cold”

The forecast is for west winds at just 5-10 knots with possible fog.

The Golden Eagle from Belmar reported another excellent day of striper fishing with many legal fish and lots of releases.

Capt. Ron Santee said it was another beautiful day on his Fishermen from Atlantic Highlands as he had a couple of areas to work without boat traffic There were fish right off the bat.”The last Hour and a Half after the change of tide the bite was insane, fish boiling on top with just about every cast producing a fish. Found the bigger fish in the afternoon as well and released many from 34 up to 42 inches. Couple customers with 30 plus fish by days end.

Sunday may be Ron’s last trip, but he’ll check the upcoming weather at that time.
