by Vinny D’Anton reports small blues have been saving the day for northern N.J. surfcasters as east winds blow day after day and the surf remains rough. No striped bass have been hooked even as the mullet run started and now there are also schools of peanut bunkers.
Though some boaters have been into little tunny, Vinny hasn’t seen them in the Monmouth County surf so far. Fishing for fluke in the surf had been good, but has become tougher in the rough surf.
Water temperatures remain high, and the fall striper migration is far in the future.
The forecast is for more of the same — small craft warnings for northeast winds at 15-20 knots plus gusts to 25. Showers are likely.
