Kingfish Are Here by Gene Geld

I’ve been fishing daily for Kingfish the last 3-4 days but the eelgrass was too much for me in Barnegat Light and Harvey Cedars. I decided to try mid- island and landed 12 and kept 7. The largest fish was

Early Out Early In by Larry Leary

The Jen-Jen got out early through the inlet today to once again be greeted by 53 degree water temperatures. We then traveled 8-10 miles off shore where the water temp was 71 degrees! Just incredible the change in temperature from

Awesome Day on The Jen-Jen by Larry Leary

We left the dock early and broke the inlet around 7:00 only to find 53 degree water temperatures. Not good for fluke! We were originally going North to Seaside but decided the fluke bite wasn’t happening in those temperatures so

Only Caught One But It Was “THE ONE” by Ed Valitutto

Since my boat is still out of commission waiting on the Lift / Tilt Assembly, I decided to go out on the Miss Barnegat Light. With a spectacular forecast and since it was Monday, how bad could the crowds be?

Fishing Facts

Of the fifty United States, thirty-eight have a striped-bass record. New Jersey has the largest striped-bass record—a 78-pound 8·ounce whopper that was caught in 1982. The state with the smallest striped-bass record is Iowa. That landlocked striper weighed only 9 pounds 4 ounces and was caught in 1983.
There’s something fishy about beer these days. Fish Tail Ale is popular as ever, and New Jersey’s Flying Fish Brewery is one of the state’s largest specialty breweries. There’s also Washington’s Wild Salmon Organic Pale Ale, Florida’s Land Shark beer, Delaware’s Dogfish Head beer, and two versions of Stingray beer—a lighter version from the Cayman Islands and a dark beer from Canada.
The triangle fly is probably the most unusual of saltwater flies. It’s one of the few, if not only, flies tied to a treble hook. It’s also barely a fly at all, because hardly any material is used. It is complete after tying the two straw pearl twinkle flashes and the tiny tuft of natural squirrel, leaving an entire hook fully exposed. Incredibly this barebacked treble fly is a knockout when it comes to sea trout.
