baldadonis2002 Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Been tossing chunks ( bunker that is) around the South Shore back bays for a bump, figured dogfish and skates would be in ...no delusions about stripers and to be honest I am not targeting them yet ( until season officially opens ). Pretty quiet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishguy62 Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 I’ve been fishing lures too. Nothing yet either. I suck though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldadonis2002 Posted March 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Still... feels great to get outside, smell the saltwater air, listen to the ocean, sun in my face. Sucking never felt so good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarbageFish Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 (edited) all of the r3tards bombing around on the beach going to ruin it for everyone. Honda SUVs are not beach beach buggys, prove me wrong. Edited March 27, 2020 by GarbageFish . carznfish, RyanJ_88 and JoeyD62 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the3fishheads Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 Took a ride to a local inlet. Hundreds of garnets diving. Came pretty close to the beach at times. Tons of people walking around. Got a feeling there were bass pushing bait up under them birds. A little early but the water is warm enough for them to show early.

carznfish Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 I agree with the ruin it for everyone take. Already way way more idiot traffic out there than normal. I get people are cooped up but it still annoys me to see a line of 10 bro-jeeps doing 30-40mph nobody has surfboards or rods (even though technically the beaches arent open to fishing yet) not going to break someones balls who wants to wet a line right now as long as they arent doing donuts testing their suspension on the barriers and dunes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishing-Addict Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) Just came back from fishing on the south shore in the rain using light line and a 30+ inch striped bass walloped me. Was tossing light lures for schoolie bass or something and this fella shows up peeling drag on my cheap walmart combo. Finally bring her in and went to go grab her but the shoreline was steep. Needless to she snapped head side to side and the 10lb berkley trilene was no match for her brute strength and she was gone. Glad I saw her though she was chunky and healthy looking. Probably a layover bass but I am glad I saw her. Proud of my shakespeare combo it held up really well for the 2 minute fight. Lets just say I have a heavy action rod and big spinning reel on order.

No more than 6 inches was left on her. She was hooked in the upper lip. I think she will shrug off the incident and do just fine. Caught keepers on this medium combo before but she was alot fatter and longer then the others where. Said_g15 and Popasilov 2 I could not come up with anything so...

Yea bigger bass are definitely moving in, I saw a guy bring in a 32 incher yesterday and it was nuts. South shore is pretty dead right now but the north shore is loaded with bass.

cheech Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Fish are forming up in the Raritan now. Nature will be sending them north up the river to spawn soon. Tis better to remain silent and thought the fool, than to speak and remove all doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldadonis2002 Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 Loyal to south shore myself...but my sources do tell me North Shore has some fish trickled about, still I cannot bring myself to using the word "loaded" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
