Fished today........tried for striped bass, but nope, not on bunker, not on the troll.
Took a ride ( which I do often ) from Shark River area to Sandy Hook.
Found a small fleet drifting and anchored fishing for stripers. Nope.
Then tried for fluke.....two shorts .
Finally made my way out to Sea Girt Reef, starting by drifting till bites were frequent so I anchored up and it was game on. Throw back to large seabags, plus a nice cod fish too.
Really great fishing to finish the day. Cruised back at a nice soft 3,500rpm with tabs down for a smooth easy ride.
Now the surprise, back in shark river, watched a young girl land a big fluke ( likely 6-8lbs )with two friends on a little boat. That river does hold so big fish, but its a tough ratio. Turned out they had FOUR nice keepers !!!!!
Enjoyed the ocean, and the V again
