Spot arrive very early at Absecon

Spot make great live baits for stripers, weakfish and large fluke, but are usually only available to NY/NJ Bight anglers in the fall. However, Absecon Bay Sportsman Center reports that they have arrived the earliest ever and he’s got lots of them in his live well.

Fisher Price IV from Highlands sent the following Raritan Bay report from a couple of days ago:

“Great bite this morning for Paul and crew. Multiple fish on at a time being taken on live bunkers, shads, plugs, and spoons. Boxed a limit of keepers and released several dozen fish to 23#. This afternoon Jon and crew were out. Reloaded the wells and the crew had a nice bunker bite landing over 2 dozen fish to 20# with a few making the box for dinner.” They have a Sunday morning opening for livelining.

The forecast is for south winds at only 5-10 knots before increasing to 10-15 plus gusts to 20 in the afternon.
