Feels like fall is falling this week with some drastic temperature differences forecast throughout this week. Yesterday was in the mid 70s and tomorrow it’s not supposed to get out of the upper 50s. It’s time to put the flannels and hoodie sweatshirts on, but we’ve got some of the best fishing of the year going on right now for inshore species so get out there and enjoy it.
Captain Dave Caffrey of On the Run Charters had a crazy good day in the OC Inlet today! Captain Dave broke in some of his new Deadly Tackle spinning rods on red drum, flounder and sheepshead. The crew ended up with 12 sheepshead, 2 tautog, 8 flounder, a slot red drum a few rock and released “lord knows how many.” The biggest flounder of the day ate a Deadly Tackle tog / bottom jig baited with a sand flea.
Captain Chris Mizurak of the Angler was stuck inshore today thanks to the wind, but he did still put his anglers on some good fishing with sea bass and a few big red drum that were caught and released.
Ryan Ellerman fished the route 50 bridge last night where he tricked this 29″ keeper rockfish into the net.
Kyle Bancaro caught this very nice 22″ flounder in the Thorofare this afternoon with net man Chris Stricklan.
Captain Monty Hawkins of the Morning Star had a good trip to the rip today with about 1/2 of his anglers seeing limits of sea bass around the rail.
