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.
Great news. I almost didn't think the weak fish were going to show up this year. Thanks for sharing.Quote:

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.
Bite gets better as the tide moves in.Quote:

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.
