Jimmy Johnson returns to Atlantic City with his Quest for the Ring offshore contest which gets underway Monday as entrants select three out of five days to fish for over a million dollars. I’ll

update the results each night.

The Golden Eagle from Belmar looked for blues this

morning and found lots of bunkers near the beach–but with no predators in them. They settled for a good pick of ling plus a keeper sea bass for all.

The Fishermen from Atlantic Highlands has been into better quality fluke the last two days. Bait has worked best, and it was necessary to power drift today. The pool fluke was over 6 pounds, but the angler wasn’t in the monthly. The Fishermen is chartered on Wednesday,

Capt. Frank Masseria fished on the N.Y. side today with his Vitamin Sea from Keyport, and went for 79 on NY keepers. Lots of NJ keepers were returned, and he was once again checked by the NY DEC.
