Island Beach, New Jersey - Saltwater Fishing Report
South of the Judges Shack
Lots of Bunker pods and birds working . Cast netted 1 1/2 5 gallon buckets of peanuts in 1 cast. I kept a smile on both the kid and adult faces. They each kept 7 of the smaller Blues which are better eating than the big ones unless you cut out the red meat. The fluke were all short , up to 15 inches and the season is closed since September 10th. I think that it is amazing how a 15 inch Fluke or smaller wants to inhale a four inch peanut bunker!
