Striped Bass fishing remains good up and down the bay. The ocean water out in the surf was still 46F yesterday. We had a week of heavy swell the past week due to an easterly storm. That will calm down starting Friday and the weekend is looking sunny, warm and calm!
We have extra-large Bloodworms and Sandworms. Anglers have been catching Striped Bass, White Perch and at least one Black Drum (keeper) was caught locally. Numerous keeper bass were caught as well. Currently, White Perch are biting in the bay, the deeper tidal rivers and lagoons in some places. We have Bloodworms and Preserved Grass Shrimp for the perch.
Blackfish season starts April 1 - only 9 days! We will have live Green Crabs on hand for Blackfish starting this afternoon for those who want to get their bait ahead of time. Stop in and get rigged up with rigs, sinkers, jigs and gear. We have plenty of Striped Bass, White Perch and Tautog rigs.
We have a great bunch of new fishing gear coming in over the next couple weeks, be sure to stop in an check it out.
