With practically the entire fleet fishing, there were few significant changes in the standings except for marlin. The first qualifying blue marlin is going to be a tough one to beat as Bert’s Three J’s weighed a 638-pounder. The biggest money is in the white marlin category, which has been changing during the week. Lights Out took over first with an 81-pounder.
It took a long time this week to even get a single dolphin weighed at a 10-pound minimum. However, Remix Main Stage brought in a 28-pounder yesterday to take over first before C-Boys took over at 32 pounds.
The tuna category leaders had no competition yesterday as the previously abundant bigeyes hav been eluding even such bigeye specialists as Mj’s Sportfishing, Crisdel and The Right Place.
There were quite a few yellowfins weighed, including many that weighed exactly 52 pounds.
Small blues plus a few larger ones and lots of bonito have been providing good jigging sport most days for the Golden Eagle from Belmar and the Queen Mary out of Point Pleasant.
The inshore forecast is for west winds at 5-10 knots before changing to southwest in the afternoon.
