A gale warning is up in NY/NJ Bight through Thursday afternoon with the switch to clearing west winds. By morning it will be west at 25-30 knots plus gusts to 40 before dropping to 20-25 in the afternoon.

The Ocean Explorer from Belmar reported a nice day on the water Tuesday, but only short blackfish and pollock were caught from among the bergalls. They will switch to cod and pollock on Friday.

The Jamaica from Brielle will be running cod and pollock tris to 25-30 mile wrecks at 3 a.m. March 2 and 3. Call 732 528-5014 for reservations.
