Got treated to a gorgeous moon rise over the Sandy Hook bridge while cleaning the boat and fish over a couple of brews.
Life is tough, but someone has to do it!

That sucks I will go for you next time if you need a pitch fisherman :sly:. Nice day on the water nicer lookin fish!!!

Yes Sir,
they are here! had them off manasquan inlet on friday. boxed eight and only had two throw backs. four on jigs and six on stretches. green and blue color!

They are definitely here, the big pods are still working mostly off shore within a few miles and working their way up.
Lot of bait in the bays, the birds are not even flying around, they are sitting all over the place. They get up every couple of minutes fly for a little bit and dive and come up with a fish in their mouth.
The guys have been pulling bunker out too all over the bay, all the way in back, out front and everything in between.
All you Jersey guys make sure you get your butt's down for the raft up. be nice with all of us making a showing.

With all this wind, I'm shooting for Friday afternoon. Anyone else out there give me a shout.
