Updated @ 4PM.
Just spoke to a few anglers who are at the pocket @ island Beach State Park,This minute , a few 16 1/2" fluke are being caught in the inlet on white gulps and were released. A hand full of guys are netting mullet and it just started to pick up, lots are being caught, so those of you who live local and would like to get some fresh mullet the run has begun get out there . Don't forget your mullet nets, the out going tide is always good for netting, I was told the mullet are right in the wash so far no fish on them, but heeeeeeeey any thing can happen.. Guppie
Updated 3:25 PM .Hi Guys & Gals. I did just get a few calls from Island Beach State park anglers, the ones who fished the pocket from 11 Am till just now saw 1 small cocktail blue caught, Charlie my tree man just called he's about 200 yards north of the inlet and just spotted fish busting water way beyond reach. Anglers are walking around with mullet nets some scored some did not.
I was told that both Peanut bunker and a ton of Mullet was being caught at A15 on the bay side yesterday and Friday.
By the inlet the water looks a bit clean the further north you go the browner it gets. Now this is all second hand information which comes from the most reliable anglers. I got a call from one angler all excited , He said Blues are busting all over the place, bait spraying, I tend to not believe him, He said blues were blitzing, an hour later He called and said he could not catch a fish they swam out to deeper water????I did not post this because I spoke to other anglers who were fishing close to where he was and said it was dead.
What I am trying to say, I only post from my great anglers who I trust and believe in and I Always get a second report from some one else before I jump the gun. Don had some medical issues we had to deal with, once hopefully tomorrow we'll be able to get out . Speaking of tomorrow, I think this might be a great day, if not, I would say by Tuesday we'll have some action, I will keep you posted and stay on top of these fishing reports especially this time of the year.
Fluke season is over tomorrow till 2009, I still say they should extend fluke season till October 1st. with a 4 bag limit per day and 16 1/2 " The Best Of Luck To All.
