Offshore jumbo sea bass were chewing today

Just as noted last night, the weather was right for offshore sea bass trips — and that’s usually all that’s required in the winter.

The Golden eagle from Belmar reported as follows:

“IT WAS EXCELLENT FISHING ON THE OFFSHORE GIANT SEA BASS TRIP!
The fish started biting right away and bit all night long. The boat was limited out by 8 am and everyone was in catch and release mode. The SEA BASS were 4 to 6 lbs. and Meredith was the pool winner with a fish around 6 to 7 lbs. We also had PORGIES, WEAKFISH and BLUEFISH.
We have a few more Offshore Giant Sea Bass Trips scheduled in December so be sure to make your reservations to join us on one of these exciting trips.
Folks, the weather for the first 3 to 4 days of the upcoming week is looking horrible for Striper fishing. We will not be fishing until Friday or the weekend. Please check our emails and website for updates.“

The inshore forecast is for southeast winds at 10-15 knots.
