    Went Thanksgiving morning. Just off the radio towers in Sea Girt. Got 2 up to 40" on snagged bunker. Trolled until noon with out a hit. Went Friday for Blackfish at the Sea Girt Reef. Had to make quite a few moves to put together 6 keepers. Got boarded by the Coast Guard for a "safety check"...

    Went Thursday back to Spring Lake. Read plenty of bait. Got bit off twice by bluefish. Had one Bass runoff but he spit the bunker. Went up to the Sandy Hook Reef for Blackfish. All shorts then the Gale force winds came and I headed in. Not a great day by any means. Some guys on my creek got bass...

    Went yesterday Tuesday 11/14. Just north of Manasquan Inlet off of the Spring Lake radio tower. Bait and Bass all over the place. Got our limit over /under and released 9 others. They're here. Fleet wasn't bad because of it being a Tuesday. This weekend will be a mad house. I'm going tomorrow...

    I'll be out Friday also. Probably going to run North and look for the birds. Seas should be good on the beach. Just hope the fish don't stay offshore +3 miles like they did in the spring. Feel free to give me a shout on 65. To the guy in Ocean City, the fish have been still hanging up in Raritan...

    Went out for a few hours yesterday(Tuesday) morning. Ran up the beach to Long Branch. Some bird action. Some bunker but they were skiddish. Lots of porpoise. No stripers. Drifted rocks for a few sea bass. Back out Friday. Might consider an offshore trip if the weather cooperates

    Fished Friday in Raritan Bay off of the Ammo pier. Lots of boat traffic and marks but didn't see anyone (including myself) catch anything. We ran up to the Hudson River by the lighthouse off Jersey City with some bunker and eels but not a touch there either. I'm getting tired of writing about...

    Yes. It's a 330 express. And yes you have to push up the throttle in a sea. When I first got it I was out in some slop and pulled down to about 15 knots. It started to cavitate. I thought there was something wrong with the tilt/trim so I immediately brought it back to Comstock for warranty...

    Wow!!! Congrats. Looks like a great trip. Although tuna seem to be far and few between. I heard of a good catch of Bluefin at the tip of the Hudson the same night. I went south down the beach yesterday afternoon to look for Bunker/Bass. Found Schools of Albies feeding on rain fish off of the...

    OK. I'll get it started. I fished yesterday out of Manasaquan. We ran north to Long Branch and got into the Albies. They were breaking the surface and were hitting very small Ava jigs reeled quickly. After that we anchored up on the rocks north of the red church and caught our limit of Blackfish...

    I recently bought a 2017 330 Express. I fish out of Manasquan Inlet. I'm interested to see if there is a space on this site where we can post recent fishing trips in our area to help one another in tracking where the fish are biting. Someplace where we can "trust" the information. I never had a...
