Reel Fantasea Fishing Charters - 71 stripers today!! and our first weakfish of the 2017 season!! Barnegat Bay Fishing Report 4/7/2017

After yesterday’s torrential down pours and wicked winds I wasn’t sure what if any effect it would have on our fishery for the next couple days , well it didn’t take too long to have that questioned answered!

Today [ Friday April 7th] anglers aboard the Reel Fantasea continued to produce it’s phenomenal catch and release numbers [ 71 bass ] of stripers but we also landed our first weakfish of the season as well!

With landing our first fluke just the other day and now our first weakfish along with the abundant schoolie striped bass population on hand we are only a bluefish away from scoring the first Barnegat Bay Grand Slam of the season!!

The fishery presently in place continues to be a light tackle enthusiast dream with fish responding to a variety of artificial and natural presentations on light spinning tackle.

I have both Sunday morning 6:30am-11:30am and 1pm -6pm for either private [5hrs private charter up to 4 anglers = $450.00 or or open boat charters $125.00pp] All rods, tackle,lures, bait and fun included !

Wishing everyone fair winds and calm seas,

Capt. Steve Purul
