The Go;den Eagle from Belmar reported

“IT WAS ANOTHER EXCELLENT DAY OF STRIPER FISHING with fish on right away in the morning. There was plenty of bird life with BASS on top working on bait. We had nice long drifts with HOT ACTION ALL AROUND THE BOAT and it was non-stop at times. The boat was limited out on SLOT FISH and KEEPERS with throwbacks safely returned. We also had some JUMBO BLUES up to 17 lbs. in the mix.“

Saturday’s forecast is great with south winds at just 5-10 knots, but a storm watch is up for Sunday.
