Island Beach, New Jersey - Saltwater Fishing Report
South of the Judges Shack
The ocean started to lay down today and the fish were active. Five Blues and nine Stripers up to 35 inches in two hours. I didn't have any bookings for trips today so I went out on my own, which I do every time that I am free so that I am able to be on top of any changing habits. Well, the fish were where they should have been. Today I only needed 8 oz. to hold bottom. I would have stayed longer but my younger teenage cousin wants me to go to his baseball game.
