The following striper report from the Fishermen out of Atlantic Highlands came in too late for yesterday’s blog, and confirmed the abundance of big stripers.
“ Awesome Bass fishing trip from start to finish today.
Several guys with their personal Best on fish up to 52 inches! Several areas of life from deep to shallow water all feeding on huge sand eels. Sore arms, sore backs tonight for Joey & I!!!
All jig fishing, I have the jigs if you need them on board, pick them up from me as soon as you arrive and don’t wait for the bite to turn on as we have been busy. You can purchase 3 for $20 any combo including, 47’s Hammered, Jig with tail or just a plain 47. Single is $8.00.
NOT AVAILABLE Saturday.”
Tuna fishing is also holding up in the canyons, as shown by a catch of yellowfins and albacore by a party led by Hans Kaspersetz and run by Anthony and Shane on Water Proof from Point Pleasant.

A small craft advisory is up through Friday afternoon. Friday starts with north winds at 10-15 knots which drop to 5-10 in the afternoon.
If there are any changes, I’ll add another blog late in the afternoon.
