Fished the back of raritan bay from 4-8 tonight. There were some bunker around, but not many so I used clams. I got 2 bass close to keeper but no cigar they fell a little short. A guy about 50 feet away from me got a bass that must have gone 20 pounds, boy was he happy. The sunset was beautiful and it was great to be out there.
well it was a nice sunday fished a few places there were some guys fish out giveing it a shot it was slow had bunker and clams fished both a big fat zero we did not fish till the next day but we were out there for a while the last spot of the night was back in the river aa cast out not 5 min reel was singing but no go but its just the start so we will be back tite lines and good fishin to all :fishing:
that new spot needs further investigation..... Best hit that I've had or seen all season.... I had the damn fish until I got tangled up with the other line and let some slack on it... had to be a 30 plus pounder from the feel of it.... Rich, I think we found them.... hit me up if you plan on going out soon.... :dribble:
Good work on the scouting G and AA, rivers have been colder except waaaay in the back. At least you had one quality fish on for a bit. Some nicer fish will be feeding in the next few days with this moon cycle. You'll gettum next time. :thumbsup:
I fished raritan bay before sunrise, one little guy, 22", clams. It was a little foggy out.
Fished the river yesterday evening, got a 38" bass, after the picture she was released! nice fight!

Nice fish zev, on the artificials no less! I fished rb for 2 hours before sunrise. The bunker came in, I couldn't get any bass. One light hit on a bunker piece, though no hookups. Lenny nice fish, did you get it on bunker or clams?
Walked out front early am- shads/plugs-some light bumps-Nice Day.
I had a good night last night cowherder, probably the best all season, though no keepers. I saw the bunker too and couldn't get anything with freshly snagged bloody pieces.:burn: I had clam on one pole and it kept getting hit. I ended up using the dozen clams I had and caught 7 bass to 24". They must have been the same year class because they were roughly all the same size. One fish swallowed the clam and circle. I cut the hook and it was bleeding, it probably died. It was great action, all around the end of the tide from 11-1am in the back of Raritan bay. Lenny that's a very nice fish, about how many pounds would you estimate it weighed?
Took my kayak out in RB by Cliffwood B. yesterday afternoon, i hooked up my 1st bluefish of the season, but those bloody teeth cut the line, nice fight though. It was around 8Lb. Got him on a bunker chunk.
Here is some pix.
