LBI Fishing Report Update - May 20, 2018

What’s that bright round thing in the sky? Finally the sun is back!!!

More reports of bass and blues today… It’s Mid May what else did you expect us to say. It’s game time. The bay, inlet, surf and ocean are all productive. Let’s get out and fish!

Chris Masino shared, “The yellow eye demonds are back!”

Here’s a bluefish Chris recently caught.

Dave Hershberger tagged us in a photo today and shared this report, “Awesome night on the beach with Dan. A 44″ set free to fight again and a 30″ that will be joining us for dinner.”

Matt from Barrington, NJ got this 22.9 pound bass fishing the LBI surf this monring chunking bunker.

Matt got a nice fish off the surf today.

Here’s Max Lentz with a nice fish he caught today on the boat.

Josh Severs sent in a report today… “It was a little snotty out there but better than I thought it was going to be. We marked bait consistently. Got a nice fish on a white Mojo north of the Pier at about 8:15am.

Steady pick of Blues at Barnegat Inlet on Say May 19. Mostly around 5 lbs. Not a blitz though. Marked a ton of bait Sunday at Meyer’s hole on my fish finder but no bites on bucktails, Sp Minnows or MoJo’s.
