30 bass Sunday, 20 this morning
got out at daybreak Sunday, solo (friends hung over & didn't show. I hate that!). Wasted an hour near Manasquan Inlet then ran down to Seaside Park. Slow pickins out in 40' to 60' with a 15 lb keeper before noon then I caught a big blue so decided to run into the beach.
Found a nice little rip at the north end of Island Beach. Started a drift in 25' towards the beach. Caught a bass on EVERY drop for an hour and a half drifting the exact same drift. Mostly 18" to 26" but several keeper size. One was 36" released. Jigging black tailed A47. Went this morning with the previous day's no-shows. Ran through some bunker in Mantoloking, snagged a few, no bites. Continued down to Island Beach. Started slow got 6 on jigs in first 2 hours but they were there. Had 2 bites on live bunker but the little bass couldn't find the hook. Tried different depths and 30' seemed to be the best zone. at 9am I found em in 30' and it was a steady bite for 30 miniutes. Took 4 keepers. Had to be at work at noon. Definitely worth the 25 minute ride.  I think I saw a yellow V20 (Brielly?) early. Did you get into them?

That was me. I saw you out there. I got one short in the boat. I had a few big ones on but they kept falling off the hook before I could get them close enough. I ended up in 60-70 feet of water. I should of kept in close. I was supposed to be at work for 7:30 but I ended up making it a half day and got in around noon. I might get out again on Wed.

My son and I squeezed in some late fishing this past Sunday...... ran down the beach all the way from Belmar to Seaside too.
Started fishing around 2:30pm, but put three keepers in the box before 4:00. Released a couple of shorts, and 3 big blues. The fish were scattered a bit by the time we fished, so I trolled to maximize coverage. All fish on the shad umbrella, wire outfit, 50 - 65' depths. Had one double header. A nice run back just before dark. Figure we logged at least 40 miles round trip in the V21. Seas were 2'-4' so cruised up at 20-23mph, back slightly faster with following seas. What a great time of the year to fish ! Heard from friend today - Del Bay chunking is on.
