 Hi Guys .
I did get reports on all conditions from Island Beach State park.
We still have a current, it's low tide now just starting to come in, from what I was told from area 1to area 19 there are birds working and fish busting water, but way out of casting reach, 5 anglers said it bluefish.
Holding with a 6-8 oz sinker.
Ocean Temp is a nice 73 degrees.
The water is a bit dirty.
I did get reports that a few dig fish( Sand sharks were seen being caught .
As far as big waves this morning it's hard to tell being that it's low tide, we just have to see what the high tide looks like . it would be nice if these bluefish would come with in casting reach, but one can never tell.
Either these blues are on bait or common sense might say they are feeding on what ever broke loose from the strong currents, could be the two. As I said in yesterdays report that this so called storm was not going to last long and it did not, Last weeks report I said the mullet run started last September 8th.
I was told that there were mullet again in the inlet and the back bay of Island Beach State Park, but who cares until the blues start feeding on mullet.
Just make sure you all bring along your casting nets, put them in your truck, and please lets all respect our fellow anglers who fish the pocket with bait or artificial not to walk or run in front of these anglers with your net and cast where they are fishing., We need some mullet to stay in this area to attract the fish.
One fall I went out helping my boss at that time chasing a school of mullet from Gillikins to area 23 I drove his red truck as he was hitting in to the same school for three solid hours, when I asked him why the school is not breaking up, he said, always remember this, if your following a big school of mullet, go a head of where the mullet are heading, always hit the back of the school, this will not indeed spook the school of mullet, well sure enough He had more mullet then we knew what to do with, the school ended up by the pocket at Island Beach State Park and before we knew it we had a bluefish blitz, every one fishing were in to Stripers and bluefish, a few weakfish and fluke as well, We all had a ball, Then John which was one of the most respectable netters I knew, the best at this time said, that's what I do.
If you throw your net in to the middle of the school the mullet will break up and go else where.
Just remember we need the bait to attract the fish, if people start running in to the water like a heard of bulls like last fall, breaking up the schools, it will chase the mullet out and we'll not have a great season.
We more then likely will head out to IBSP this afternoon and will be back with a report.
Don had some surgery Wednesday and is doing fine now .
The best Of Luck To All.
