Island Beach, New Jersey - Saltwater Fishing Report
Gillikins
Monster Blues were chasing Bunker right up onto the beach. The pod size was only about 30 ft. by 40 ft. The Blues were inhaling Shad chunks and snagged Bunker. The Stripers only wanted clams today. The Stripers were from fat little footballs to 1 35.5 in. 15.8 lbs. in size. Most of today's action was up until high tide, after that the crabs were too abundant and stealing bait.
