Fishing Report:
What a difference a day makes. Banged them hard Sat. on Ava's. Couldn't get a touch on the Vision's. Some had them on live spot till the Dog's moved in, some had them on the troll. I don't know how they troll in a parking lot but some did with success. We did it Sunday by moving away from the fleet , finding a small pod of fish and working it till the fleet saw what was going on and moved in.

We kept moving South in 18'-20' picking here and there, till the wind started to crank about 10:30 then Bagged it. The Man was waiting at the Inlet and has a Cool New RIB w/200HP Honda that flies. Really good guys (if your Legal) No hassles. Make sure your Bonus Tags are filled out when you keep that extra fish.
SM Out.

What a difference a couple of days day can make. The stripers took the day off. Even the surf anglers didn't have action on the LBI beach this morning. An isolated angler whooped up on them when they found a pod of bass that were on the feed; the fish are not gone, just finicky today.

Today people caught lots of Stripers like they have been the last few days. From Red tower up to Brant Beach the Striper activity was hot. People managed to troll through what seemed like hundreds of boats in the area. Lots of jigging with the diamond jigs; the bigger the better it seems. Umbrella rigs worked well too. The inlet seemed to do okay, a little more activity then what's been reported the last few days. Expect Dog sharks and Bluefish! Some anglers were able to go Tog fishing and they are hitting their limit, but no one is giving away which wreck is doing better. (No more Eels, Spots, or Fresh Bunker for the season).

EPIC fishing day! EPIC!!!
Early anglers had lots of bass activity as far South as the Red Tower. Activity was more consistent up anywhere near the Brant Beach Lumps. Water depths varied from eighteen to forty feet. Trolling and Jigging anglers did equally well.
Inlet clam fishing anglers had bass today too, but they were keeping it pretty low key and seem to be catching some bigger fish too, but to be fair, still not the numbers the jigging anglers are coming up with.
Got a favorite lump between here and Atlantic City? Word has it there were plenty of bass out in front of Brigantine today too.
Lots of law enforcement on the water this week. I think it is great and all the folks doing the right thing think so too. It's easy to get caught up in the excitement. Things to remember...It is a daily bag limit. Bragging about two trips a day doesn't score you points. The three mile limit offshore is a NO INTENT TO FISH FOR striper zone; it's not catch and release. Be careful not to let a flock of birds pull you offshore. If your in sixty feet of water within ten miles above or fifty feet of water five miles below Little Egg Inlet, your likely pushing or already past the three mile limit. No bass fishing in the morning then tog fishing outside the three mile limit in the afternoon; it's possession not where the bass were caught.
Fresh clams and the metals wall was restocked late this afternoon.
Want to get an early start tomorrow morning? I should be here shortly after 5:00 figuring the fishing is EPIC and some folks just didn't make it in late this afternoon.

Fishing Report:
we left early morning in the dark, took it easy going out due to foggy conditions. when we reached the ocean there was a little bit of light. we headed north out of little egg inlet and were trying to decide what to do then we seen the birds working just to the north. as we approached the bird action i was tying on a diamond jig and noticed stripers jumping clear out of the water everywhere. up to 20 lbs at least. we couldn't catch a single one. i noticed all of the sand eels, so we tied on a 3/8 jig head with a fin-s and boom, we had it figured out, then the action slowed. headed to brant beach lump area with boats everywhere and started catching some fish on the same jig head set ups. the action was hot, and landed some nice fish including a monster blue fish. biggest fish was 13lbs 14oz. wind picked up and headed in around 10am. it was the day to be out there if you could. hopefully some more action to come.
