The blues showed up again at the park this weekend. There were some nice ones in there, up to 15 pounds. I was throwing metal. Some other folks got them on plugs and bucktails.
Into the blues in moco yesterday in the back. Fought a couple, lost a lot more. Small plugs and some topwater poppers. It was good until the wind got stronger and the tide got close to low. Man that wind was howling.
I was out in the back in Monmouth County yesterday as well. I must have picked the wrong place, because I saw only the blues that were a few. It was still nice to see some of them. Nothing for me. These blue fish are like all head and a very long body.
Have been hearing how great the bay was so I went early this morning. I think I made a mistake because the tide was very low. It wasn't bad when I started out with poppers, but eventually the wind was fierce. So I only fished for one and a half hours. Zippo for me. Still a nice morning out there if it wasn't that windy.
West is best
Nice!
Good going guys. JB the blue fish in the one of the next-to-last pics looks like it is big and fat, a lot different than some of the other blue fish. Has that purple shine direct from the ocean. Nice looking fish.
I fished moco last night in the back on the incoming tide 8 - 11. Got some nice blues, but it was on and off. It seems like waves of them would come through and then I would get hit. All on bone color SPs.
Noticed a similar thing. Went to Island beach and fish the last 2 hours before dark. The closer it got to dark the better the catching was. I got a couple nice ones on bucktails and crocodile spoons. My biggest was only about 10 pounds tho. One guy caught one that he said was 18 pounds. massive bluefish
Out late last night deep in the back. Monmouth County in the dark. A few places. Tossing rubber and small plugs. Two short bass on the rubber. Then a big blue bit me off and I went to plugs. One more blue and that was it.
Some pretty decent gator action yesterday end of day in the park. Sore arms.
Wow looks like I missed a lot of good activity. Have been staying away the last two days because I thought the wind would screw it up. Looks like I guessed wrong LOL. Thanks for the heads up, will be out hitting it hard.
Big blues came into IBSP this afternoon. I did well on bucktails and pork. Saw others sacrifice a lot of shads. john at Betty and nicks will be sold out of rubber tomorrow at this rate. It really is easier and less expensive to use bucktails, but John can always use the revenue. They are in a lot of places, and the back as well. Fishermen were also getting them on bunker chunks.
Three of us fished OC this afternoon in three different spots. First stop in the park we caughjt some big blues, most on metal. Second stop nothing. Third stop we we caught some blues, all on bucktails tipped with plastic worms.
Good going fellas. Have not been able to make it out in a few nights. Managed some larger blues on bucktail after dark, and one small weakie on pink finess near the end of the tide. In the back oc.
this AM my partner and I each had a bass 24 to 26" and 30 blues between 5 and 16 pounds
All on plugs
