The great mid-May fishing continues. Anglers are finding bass and blues on the bay, inlet and surf.

Dave Iacono hit the LBI surf last night and got a nice bass.

Kevin Laverty from the LBI Fishing Club sent in this photo of a big bass today.

Today the troll bite continued off the boats. Bob and Jeff Haines of South Hampton caught two nice bass trolling off IBSP this morning. They said all of the action was before 10 am on Mojos.

Sloane Endick was out fishing with Captain Jeff Warford today. She reported a great day getting her new personal best just shy of 40 pounds.
