I know hardly anyone looks at this forum but I figured I'd contribute since Jersey is one of my many fishing destinations throughout the year.
My son and I fished out of SH on Sat and we were mainly interested in blues, yes blues. Everyone is hip on stripers, but things just didn't really get rolling there for them just yet. We set out to find some blues around the TI inlet. We were jigging and marking alot of bait balls but had no hits. We then heard on the radio about a big school of blues heading south along the beach, down towards Wildwood. We went for it and I'm glad we did. For three hours we bailed blues and big ones to 12#. We quit around noon and had a cooler full for the freezer. They were spitting up rainfish, small bunker, and baby trout, yes trout. Had one spit one up that was about ten inches long. All fish caught on metals. We lost count around fourty between the two of us. Had great weather, light winds, and a beautiful day to be on the water. Water [email protected] 53* ocean.
