NJ fishing reports may - june 2018

Fished OC out front 3:30 to 7:30 pm. Three of us caught about 20 stripers, micro size to 27". The wind turned hard north and killed the bite for the last hour we fished. All fish caught on plugs.

Nice work guys. I fished the general area of ibsp yesterday before work. Only had an hour. Got some micros as well. Was casting an ava with a teaser.

Great to hear the schoolies are filling in! I fished the big D this weekend with bloods. Got some stripers and cats. My biggest was a 29 incher. There was a guy early morning walking off with a 20 pounder when I got there. He said he got it before sunrise on bloods as well.

I punked out on the weekend because of work and rain. Will try to get out this week you can't catch them from the couch. Good job guys. Saw that 58lb cow. Looks like big stripers are really starting to show up.

Fished moco ocean last night, one striper 23 incher on a rubber shad. Few more bumps, couldn't hook them.

Same for me in the afternoon yesterday. Plugs and rubber shads.

Blues are a little south. They are in Barnegat Bay. Other people should be getting them any day now.

Very nice report. The last few days have been pretty steady. I haven't been out there every day. Some younger fishermen I know have, and have been catching. I was at island beach yesterday from 2 to 6. For me they hit plugs and rubber shads. Smaller stripers, very feisty and fun to catch.

Fished moco back bay 8-9. I got a massive hit on my white sp when I first got there, and the fish got off. Kept casting, was rewarded with a 27 1/2" striper, so close but no cigar. Hopefully next time will get that keeper. good night out, warm weather and easy to handle.

Tried the ocean for the first time last night from 6 to 8. It looked really nice. That is the key word here "looked" because I felt like it should have been more fishy. Got 2 very small stripers on chartreuse storm shad. Where are the blues I am jonesing for a racer.

moco in the back. Bumped one bunker with my plug and felt like it was going to be epic last night. Famous last words, skunk for me.

Nice going gents!

Been doing pretty good up in rb at night. That slowed down in the last week. Last night fished from 11-2 and only managed one. 31", hit a MD.

Way to put the time in. Skunk in 2 counties for me Sat. Started at 9pm in the back of moco. Nada. Then went to oc and fished the last hour of the moving water. Skunk there as well, unless the one sea robin I got on bucktail counts lmao.

[williehookem]

Sea robins, skate, dogfish, and boat fish don't count!

[rockhopper]

How about giant rays, or cow nose rays?

[nitestrikes]

The old salts fishing for bass would count any trip that didn't land bass as a 0. Just saying.

[porgy75]

Old salts- cool. Love that thanks for sharing.
