Hooking Up Anglers Since 2011.
It didn't seem to be the blitz fishing that occured in some areas Tuesday, but stripers did cooperate for some today. Capt. Sal Cursi said there were enough bass down the beach for anglers on his Cathy Sea from Sewaren. "You just had to find the bunkers." Capt.

It didn't seem to be the blitz fishing that occured in some areas Tuesday, but stripers did cooperate for some today. Capt. Sal Cursi said there were enough bass down the beach for anglers on his Cathy Sea from Sewaren. "You just had to find the bunkers."
Capt. Rob Semkewyc wasn't looking for bunkers Tuesday, and only ended up with one keeper on his Sea Hunter from Atlantic Highlands -- but had a better day Wednesday. However, he's wrapping up his striper season by Friday, and switches to fluke Saturday. There will be two trips from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., and 1:30 to 6:00 p.m.
Capt. Jim O'Grady of Cock Robin from Point Pleasant said bunkers were easy to come by, and some stripers hit them, though they had to overcome the unpredicted fog.
Capt. Bobby Bogan said Wednesday morning produced fluke up to 6 pounds until the drift got too fast for anglers on his Gambler from Point Pleasant. Bill Bryant of Toms River had two fluke of 2 and 4 pounds on squid and spearing. Most of the action has been in 55 to 65 feet, where there were some sea bass but no dogfish. Big dogfish made Sunday night's cod and ling trip a poor one.
Scott Leadbeater of Haddon Heights reports his son Rich ran their boat out of Atlantic Highlands today and caught three keeper fluke up to 21 inches off the Navy Pier. He noted there were lots of 16-to-17-inch shorts. Trolling in mid-bay produced only a few bluefish.
Betty & Nick's in Seaside Park reports fluke moving into the 66 degree surf, with keepers caught at Island Beach State Park and Bay Head.
The Greater Atlantic Bluefish Tournament will be contested Saturday at Brigantine. The captains meeting is at 7 p.m. Thursday in the Brigantine Elks.
