609-494-5739 It’s been a little while, but the fishing is starting to heat up as long as the water temperatures keep dropping. On the charter front, the transitional time is starting to pass and I’m seeing more Striped Bass starting to cooperate although it’s early morning or late evening. I have been kayaking during the late night hours and have been hooking up regularly on Striped Bass, we just need them to start biting during the daylight hours which will occur as the water temps. drop. We will start targeting Striped Bass/Bluefish in the next few weeks and through the rest of the season. On our mid-October, November, and December Striped Bass charters, we provide “live spot” on every charter which are included at no charge. Just a reminder, I picked up my allotted 50 Striped Bass Bonus Tags from the state of NJ for the season and we be using them from September through December. With school in session, I’m running weekends and weekday afternoons starting at 230pm.
This past Friday afternoon I had Jutta Locker and her daughter Jessica from Utica, NY on a 4hr Bay & Inlet trip. We started working a channel close to the inlet drifting live Peanut Bunker and working soft plastics. With no takers, we moved to the inlet which was fishable. We drifted live and fresh baits, and both clients hooked into Blues 7 to 10 pounds. The bite only lasted about a 1/2 hour, and quickly died as the brown water moved in. We continued to work different areas getting only subtle bites which were most likely snapper Blues. The Coast Guard graced us in the last 10 minutes of the charter to perform a routine safety check. We PASSED! Nice job by both clients on a rather tough day!
