<b>Atlantic Highlands</b>

A few anglers showed up Wednesday for bottom-fishing aboard, and weather was good, so the day’s trip sailed to the reef on the party boat <b>Atlantic Star</b>, Capt. Tom said. Fishing was good for porgies, and the anglers who blackfished, caught. All left with a limit of one blackfish, and some anglers only porgy fished. But some blackfished, who brought crabs for bait, and they porgy fished afterward. Crabs aren’t yet supplied aboard this season. A few anglers joined today’s trip, and were picking porgies, and had cranked in a couple of blackfish, when Tom gave this report in a phone call this morning on the boat. The angling ended up good for the day, he said in a phone call later. The trip, like the previous one, only had to make one drop. The boat was eased backwards on anchor today, so anglers could concentrate more on porgies, after the ones who blackfished had landed enough of the tautog. Winds were already building on today’s trip, and Friday’s trip won’t sail, because of forecasts for rough weather. But Saturday looks good, and trips should resume then. Anglers can telephone the Atlantic Star around 8 p.m. Friday to confirm. The bottom-fishing aboard started to pick up on Monday, after it was slower previously. No trip sailed on Tuesday, and few people showed up at the docks to fish in past days. But on days when just a few did, and weather was fair, the boat sailed, like on the next two days or yesterday and today, Wednesday and Thursday. The Atlantic Star is bottom-fishing 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. daily. Porgies and blackfish have been targeted, but starting Friday, opening day of sea bass season, sea bass will be able to be, too.

Striped bass were trolled on spoons and rigs, said Jimmy from <b>Julian’s Bait & Tackle</b>. “They catch some on the boats,” he said. Stripers were beached from the ocean surf on swimming and popping lures until daylight. Then the surf casters clammed and wormed them. Surf anglers on the bay also dragged in stripers. Fishing for them was good at Leonardo on Wednesday. One angler bought a dozen eels and fished at Leonardo that day, returning to buy more and head back out, because he was catching. Another angler there popper-plugged them. Weakfish were jigged from the ocean. Blackfishing was very good. Nothing was heard about porgies. Bluefish left the local area, except a few small ones. Sea bass season will be opened Friday, but weather looks like a blow out that day.  All baits are stocked except fresh bunker. None of the boats were catching the menhaden.

<b>Highlands</b>

Good striper fishing, Capt. Pete from the <b>Hyper Striper</b> wrote in an e-mail. Keeper striped bass caught aboard were all 30 to 38 inches, and many throwbacks were in the mix. Jack Schmidt’s party limited out on them on Wednesday. Chris Difabio’s crew landed 11 keepers on Tuesday. On Monday, Bob Sabia’s group put up 10 keepers in the morning, and John Bace’s limited out and released more keepers in the afternoon. Pete listed many more trips that included limits or nearly limits of stripers, sometimes including 18- to 28-pounders, from this week and last. One trip, with Gene Alexander’s group, limited out on stripers to 20 pounds, then limited on blackfish, one per angler.

Boating from <b>Twin Lights Marina</b>, Roy Wurst and party limited out on striped bass off Fire Island, New York, on jigs, Marion wrote in an e-mail. Twin Lights, conveniently located on Shrewsbury River, with no bridges before Raritan Bay and the ocean, features boat slips, rack storage, a fuel dock, ship’s store supplies, and a complete bait and tackle shop. Bushels of clams are available.

Striped bass fishing was very good with <b>Fisher Price Charters</b>, and many throwbacks swam, but all the trips limited out or almost limited, Capt. Derek said. In recent days, keepers weighed up to 18 and 20 pounds, and trips trolled. Trips had been jigging them, but the bass refused jigs in past days, for some reason. Once trips trolled, catches were non-stop. Charters are fishing, and one space is available Sunday for an open-boat trip for stripers. More open trips for them will be scheduled for next week. Telephone the boat for the dates or to be kept informed about future open dates.

<b>Neptune</b>

With <b>Last Lady Fishing Charters</b>, striped bass fishing was very good on Monday, Capt. Ralph said in a phone call Wednesday. In an e-mail previously, he said striper fishing was up and down. On a trip for them Saturday, “we didn’t have any luck,” he wrote, but the trip piled up porgies afterward, “saved the day,” he said. A trip Sunday racked up good fishing for both stripers and blackfish. A trip was supposed to striper fish today. Charters are available, and an individual-reservation trip for cod, pollock and hake is set for Monday. An individual-reservation trip for inshore wreck-fishing is slated for November 10, and sea bass season will be opened Friday. An individual-reservation trip for blackfish is on the books for November 16, when the bag limit will be increased to six from the current limit of one.

<b>Belmar</b>

Sea bass fishing will begin Friday on the party boat <b>Big Mohawk</b>, Capt. Chris said. That’s opening day of sea bass season, but the fishing might be weathered out that day. Forecasts look good for Saturday and Sunday, though. The trips will sail 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily.

Fishing for striped bass was up and down or sporadic, said Capt. Pete from <b>Parker Pete’s Fishing Charters</b>. The fish were eeled and jigged aboard the ocean, and one trip got into porgy catches in the afternoon a bit.  Pete looks forward to sea bass season opening Friday.  Don’t have enough anglers for a charter? Contact Pete anyway, or <a href=" http://www.parkerpetefishing.com/" target="_blank">subscribe to Parker Pete’s e-mailed newsletter</a>, to be kept informed about individual-spaces available on charters. Look for the place to sign up on the right side of the page on the boat’s Web site.

Angling had been sailing on long rides north to catch striped bass on the party boat <b>Golden Eagle</b>, a report on the vessel’s Web site said. But that fishing slowed, and the bass seemed to start migrating south. Wednesday’s trip fished locally, and some of the bass were pitched aboard, and lots broke the water surface. A small group of anglers joined today’s trip. They averaged a striper bagged apiece, and stripers were marked and were seen breaking the surface along more than a mile. “But they did not bite like you saw them,” the report said. Still, the fish to 25 pounds were sacked, on Ava jigs, Krocodile lures and popper plugs. The Golden Eagle is fishing 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. daily and 7:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. Thursdays through Sundays. Striperthons were supposed to start Friday that will fish every Monday and Friday from 6 a.m. until usually 3 or 4 p.m. But gale force winds will cancel this week’s. Saturday’s forecast looks great.

Waiting for striped bass to show up, Bob from <b>Fisherman’s Den</b> wrote in an e-mail. “No good answer why they are not here in much better numbers,” he said. Reports about stripers caught “in various areas and times of day,” he said, came in daily. But the catches weren’t as good as expected. Belmar’s boats traveled north to New York waters to put together good striper catches, “not an encouraging sign that the fish will come in any time soon,” he said. Marty Westerfield, Wall, weighed in a 16-pound striper from the surf at Manasquan. Fish the surf at night, with a needlefish lure and a teaser, to increase the chance to bank stripers, Bob suggested. Large schools of weakfish, mostly small, swam the ocean and surf. “Hope for a better report soon,” he said.

<b>Point Pleasant Beach</b>

Offshore fishing is finished for the season with <b>Andrea’s Toy Charters</b>, Capt. Fred said. Trips had been boating tuna, good catches, and big game at the offshore canyons. But weather was closing in, and trips aboard now will switch to fishing for striped bass and bottom fish.

Trips sailed with light crowds on the party boat <b>Norma-K III</b> the past two days, Capt. Matt wrote in a report on the vessel’s Web site. The anglers picked away at blackfish and beautiful-sized, out-of-season sea bass, releasing them. “Sea bass season opens tomorrow!” he said. Rough weather and high seas will cancel that day’s trip. “Saturday is looking much better!” he said. Starting then, the Norma-K III will begin fishing for sea bass 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. daily. Magic Hour Ling Trips will also start that day, sailing 3 to 9 p.m. every Saturday.

Fishing targeted porgies on the party boat <b>Dauntless</b>, and will target sea bass and porgies starting Friday, Capt. Butch said. That’s opening day of sea bass season, and porgy fishing seemed to slow down the past couple of days, for unknown reasons. Maybe that was because of moon phase, though Butch doesn’t usually believe the moon affects angling, he said. Water temperatures were perfect, at 56 to 59 degrees, where the boat fished in 30- to 60-foot shallows. Anglers bucketed five to 10 porgies apiece, and a few blackfish were bagged. A few sea bass were released, and trips had been avoiding sea bass. But trips scoped around for them the last couple of days, and sea bass probably pushed a little deeper, because not many bit in the shallows. The Dauntless is fishing for porgies today and will begin fishing for sea bass and porgies on Friday. Trips sail 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. daily.  

<b>Toms River</b>

In the surf during daytime, a few striped bass were picked on clams, but they were usually keepers, said Dennis from <b>Murphy’s Hook House</b>. Striper fishing was best at night, was good, from the beach, on lures with teasers. The type of lure wasn’t so important, but a teaser was necessary. Anyone who put in the time could limit out on stripers from the surf. They just had to fish slowly, Dennis said, and with a teaser. Boaters picked an occasional striper while trolling the ocean. But waters were warm, 62 or 63 degrees, near the shore, and most stripers swam north of Monmouth County. Stripers remained off New York and Montauk. At least the local ocean dropped below 65. Striper fishing was good along the sod banks on Barnegat Bay on livelined eels at night. In the Toms River, a few crabs skittered around. No snapper blues were heard about from the river anymore. The waters were 42 to 45 degrees, but peanut bunker, large ones 3 and 4 inches, swam the river. A few small stripers were hooked from the river on small, 4-inch plugs, imitating the peanuts. A few white perch began to be nabbed from the river. Anglers in the know made off with some, no great numbers.

<b>Seaside Heights</b>

Surf fishing was a little slow, said Mario from <b>The Dock Outfitters</b>. “Just a big wind coming,” he said. That was the main news. Weather is supposed to be rough Friday but calm Saturday. Lots of bait schooled the surf, but no fish were on them. “Just waiting for it to happen,” he said. Striped bass were eeled from Barnegat Inlet’s north jetty, if anglers liked to fish from jetties. Fresh clams, fresh bunker, eels, sandworms and frozen baits are stocked. The Dock Outfitters, located on the bay, features an extensive supply of bait and tackle, a dock to fish and crab from and boat rentals for fishing and crabbing.

<b>Forked River</b>

From the ocean, striped bass were trolled off the batching beach in 45 or 50 feet the past few days on umbrella rigs with rubber shads, said Kyle from <b>Grizz’s Forked River Bait & Tackle</b>. Reportedly, chartreuse caught best, but white or white-and-black also caught. The fish, busting the water surface, were also jigged, because they worked bait. Ava jigs and Tsunami shads that are weighted were jigged. In Barnegat Bay, stripers were eeled or clammed along the sod banks, but the angling wasn’t great yet. Lots of blackfish bit along places like Point Pleasant Canal.

<b>Barnegat Light</b>

A charter fished today on the party boat <b>Miss Barnegat Light</b>, a report on the vessel’s Web site said. A body of striped bass swam into the local ocean this week. But they were difficult to catch today, feeding on rainfish, a small bait, though the bass were seen feeding along surface through the trip. The Miss Barnegat Light is fishing for striped bass and bluefish at 7 a.m. Fridays through Sundays. This Friday’s trip will be weathered out, but the boat should sail Saturday, when winds and weather are supposed to calm. Winds then are supposed to switch to northwest, “and hopefully turn the stripers on,” the report said. 

Trips fished Thursday through Saturday on the <b>Super Chic</b>, and no striped bass showed up, Capt. Ted said. Only small weakfish and small blues did, and they were jigged. The trips fished the ocean, but one of the outings tried fishing Barnegat Inlet, livelining spots for stripers. But only blues that filled the waters tore up the baitfish. The next trips will sail this weekend, for stripers. Sea bass season will be opened Friday, so charters will be able to go after them starting then. The 56-foot boat can accommodate up to 25 anglers on inshore trips and 10 on overnight, offshore trips. The vessel sleeps 10 passengers.

Customers docked many striped bass today and yesterday, said Vince Sr. from <b>Bobbie’s Boat Rentals</b>. The fish came from Barnegat Inlet and the ocean off Island Beach State Park. Some were taken from Oyster Creek Channel on Barnegat Bay. Livelined spots socked them at all those places. Surf anglers fished fresh bunker for stripers. “They’ve had some fish,” Vince said. Lots of blackfish were pumped in, including along Barnegat Inlet’s rocks. Bobbie’s includes a bait and tackle store, a fuel dock, and boat and kayak rentals, and is known for a large bait selection. Baits currently include live spots, green crabs, fresh clams and fresh bunker.

If anglers wanted to catch, boating the bay or fishing from shore off Barnegat Lighthouse was best, said Josh Falcone from <b>Viking Outfitters</b>. Surf fishing for stripers was slow, and waters were 61 degrees or warm. Some were caught, and more on that in a moment. First, lots of throwback striped bass were played on the bay. One angler boated 22 on Wednesday on bucktails with 6-inch rubber grubs. Tons of blackfish chomped, including along Barnegat Inlet’s rocks near the lighthouse. Shore anglers tugged them in. The surf fishing for stripers was very spotty, and the fish were very small. Redfish and weakfish were hung from the surf. About five stripers caught from the beach were heard about in the last five days. Probably two large ones banked were known about recently. The five caught were on bait overnight. But during daytime, small stripers were plugged from the surf on swimmers like Redfins or those from Guide’s Secret. Mid-afternoons seemed best for that. One report came in about boating on the ocean. A trip sailed there yesterday, and an angler from the outing said lots of bait filled the ocean, but not many stripers were on them.  Opened several months ago, Viking Outfitters is located at historic Viking Village. Josh, a co-owner, used to work at Barnegat Light Bait & Tackle that was closed, giving particularly detailed reports to this site from there. He and his partner from Viking fish every day, and feel they definitely offer first-hand knowledge about what’s biting. The store can be telephoned 24 hours a day, and someone can be at the store quickly during off hours. Bait can be delivered to a boat, a home or the beach. Baits stocked include live spots and green crabs, fresh bunker and assorted frozen baits. The store is geared toward surf and bay fishing, but all offshore supplies are provided. Apparel like from Grunden’s, Carhartt and Jetty is sold.  

<b>Barnegat</b>

From an edited e-mail from Capt. Dave DeGennaro from the <b>Hi Flier</b> today: “I just moved the Hi Flier back to Bob's Bay Marina in Barnegat this afternoon. I spent the last few weeks fishing out of Manasquan Inlet, chasing bass and big blues. It worked out well, and I’ll probably do it again next season. Locally, my phone and e-mail have been lighting up with reports about stripers up and down Island Beach. Open-boat trips this Sunday and Monday, 6 a.m. to noon. Three person max. All fish are shared. Here we go! It's going to be an interesting two months. Can't wait. We’re ready to troll bunker spoons, umbrella rigs and single tube lures; cast soft plastics; jig metal; and liveline spots. It's a great time of year.”

<b>Surf City</b>

Not a lot could be reported, said Sue from <b>Surf City Bait & Tackle</b>. But the bunker netter ran into a healthy number of striped bass on the menhaden a mile from shore. For surf anglers, striped bass were yet to show up strongly. They sometimes beached redfish. They banked good catches of blackfish along Barnegat Inlet’s jetty. Fresh bunker, fresh clams, eels, bloodworms and green crabs are stocked. Visit <a href="http://www.surfcitybaitandtackle.com/" target="_blank">Surf City Bait & Tackle’s Web site</a>.

<b>Mystic Island</b>

Slow pickings, said Scott from <b>Scott’s Bait & Tackle</b>. Lot of effort, for few fish, he said. But the striped bass migration wasn’t really late. In 2011, the run didn’t arrive until Halloween weekend. Two stripers were reported trolled on the ocean on a trip today, and those were the first trolled from the ocean reported in some time. Two stripers caught in Tuckerton Bay were heard about recently, including a 33- or 34-incher. Three stripers trolled on Mullica River late last week were the most recent heard about from there. Nobody mentioned blackfishing, but blackfish surely hovered along the banks of the bay. Water temps hadn’t changed. Nobody talked about white perch fishing on brackish rivers like the Mullica. Fresh, shucked clams, bloodworms, eels and live grass shrimp are stocked. Scott had been thinking about ordering fresh bunker for this weekend, but decided to postpone, because of rough weather forecast, and no real striper reports yet.

<b>Absecon</b>

Plenty of striped bass were around, said Capt. Dave from <b>Absecon Bay Sportsman Center</b>. They weren’t thick yet, he said, but plenty were caught. Many of them were small, but some larger were around, and this was the migration, and fishing could become good on the change of a tide. Anglers needed to fish to catch them, and if they waited for reports, they’d miss them. Most stripers were hooked from the back bay or the surf, and not many were found at Absecon Inlet. Dave took a short, 2-hour trip on the bay this morning, releasing five throwbacks on Gulps on jigheads. John Tefankjian livelined a 34-pound striper on a spot from the bay yesterday. A couple of boaters kept trolling the banks of the bay, occasionally hooking a keeper to 30 inches. Large stripers were sometimes beached from the surf, and the fish seemed to swim in small schools. Friday’s weather might be rough, but the weekend’s looks good. Blackfishing could be a good bet at places like Brigantine Bridge. Blackfish usually bite best in clear waters, and the waters have been clear, though that could change if Friday is windy. Live spots, fresh bunker, fresh clams and green crabs are stocked.

<b>Brigantine</b>

Linda D. kept tying into striped bass from the surf, said Capt. Andy from <b>Riptide Bait & Tackle</b>. She weighed in a 27-pound 41-incher on Sunday, releasing two 32-inchers that day. She was in first through third places in the shop’s surf striper derby. But surf fishing was slow for stripers, wasn’t great. Linda was into them, and a couple other anglers started to find them. Craig Bush stopped in with a 36-inch striper he landed from the surf last night, and a couple of the fish came from the beach that night.  Conditions looked great for surf angling for stripers tonight, because of the front coming, Andy said. “But it’ll blow tomorrow,” he said. A boater checked in a large striper from Absecon Inlet that he live-baited. Fresh bunker, fresh clams and eels are stocked.  Riptide’s annual bounty was up to $615 that will be awarded to the angler who checks in the season’s first striper 43 inches or larger from Brigantine’s surf. So the bounty was getting up there, and entry is $5, required 12 hours before catching the fish. The winner takes all the cash. The Riptide Striper Derby, the annual Brigantine surf-fishing contest, is under way until December 23.  When entrants purchase a Brigantine beach-buggy permit, the tournament provides another permit to drive onto the beach along the entire island, instead of only at the cove, south jetty and north end. Prizes are $500, $300 and $150 for first, second and third prizes, respectively. Plus, a monthly $100 prize and a weekly $25 prize are awarded.

<b>Atlantic City</b>

Anglers on foot did a number on striped bass and good-sized blackfish, said Noel from <b>One Stop Bait & Tackle</b>. They fished the surf and Absecon Inlet, lined with fish-attracting jetties, both near the shop. The stripers were hooked from both places and from shore off Harrah’s casino on the back bay nearby. The bass bit fresh bunker, fresh clams and eels. Weakfish were zapped at Harrah’s, either on pink Zoom lures or on the bait fished for stripers. The shore anglers yanked in spots, herring and a few blues, too. All baits are stocked.

<b>Ocean City</b>

From the surf, striped bass 12 to 36 inches were sometimes beached, said Justin from <b>Fin-Atics</b>. Many were small, but more larger ones started to appear than before. Fin-S Fish, top-water lures, clams and bunker hooked the fish. A couple were heard about on mullet. The fish were in, and the angling was a matter of right place, right time, and fishing whatever the bass wanted to bite. One angler landed 40 of the fish, from 15 to 30-some inches, on soft-plastic lures on a trip. Another used a certain color lure, hooking one on the first cast, then reeling in eight more. Plenty of others caught none on trips. A couple of 20-plus-pounders were bagged this weekend. The surf was very clear, not rough, and was very fishable. That’ll change because of weather that was supposed to roll in tonight. Tons of small stripers gathered around bridges in the back bay. Blackfishing went well along bridges, and anglers kept mentioning that the tautog were decent-sized. Nothing was heard about boating on the ocean, but one or two reports were heard about stripers 20 to 30 pounds boated from Great Egg Harbor Inlet on eels and bunker.

<b>Sea Isle City</b>

Surf anglers managed a few striped bass, mostly on popper lures, said Mike from <b>Sea Isle Bait & Tackle</b>.  A couple were clammed, and a redfish was bunker-chunked from the surf early in the week. A couple of anglers landed four good-sized, throwback stripers from the back bay at Strathmere last night under lights. They fished Yozuri Pins Minnows in silver and black, and that was probably the best report in the last couple of days. Not much happened in past days. Stripers were occasionally livelined on spots from the bay, but anglers worked for them. Blackfishing was awesome, and shore anglers reeled in the tautog from along the rocks along the Avalon side of Townsend’s Inlet. Anglers also clobbered them from along dock pilings and different rock piles. Boaters turned up good angling for blackfish on the ocean.

The back bay held striped bass that could be jigged or fly-rodded, said Capt. Joe Hughes from <b>Jersey Cape Guide Service</b>, affiliated with <b>Sea Isle Bait & Tackle</b>. His trips nailed them last week, reported then here. Take and After Work Special Trip from afternoon to dark, a great time to fish. The bay’s fishing was the only he could confirm, though he knew that blackfish bit well in the ocean. He’ll get out on the ocean this weekend and see what’s happening. Last weekend, he wrapped up the season’s traveling charters to Montauk, New York, fishing the migration of large stripers and blues. That migration is impending at Sea Isle City, and charters aboard will hunt the fish down in November and December. Those trips should be booked now. Joe’s next traveling charters will be annual ones to the Florida Keys from Christmas to Easter, mostly on weekends. Lock in dates.  See <a href="http://www.captainjoehughes.com/page3.html" target="_blank">Jersey Cape’s traveling charters Web page</a>. Keep up with Joe’s fishing on <a href="http://captainjoehughes.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Jersey Cape’s blog</a>.

<b>Cape May</b>

Striped bass fishing will begin this weekend on the <b>Down Deep</b>, either with chunks of bunker on Delaware Bay or livelined spots at Cape May Rips, Capt. Mario said. A sea bass trip on the ocean is full Friday, opening day of sea bass season. But weather might cancel the trip. Charters are fishing, and sign up for the <a href=" http://www.downdeepsportfishing.com/ddsf/76-2/" target="_blank">Short Notice List</a> on Down Deep’s Web site to be kept informed about open-boat trips, including for sea bass and blackfish. Blackfishing will begin on November 16, when the bag limit is increased to six, from the current limit of one.

The season’s first striped bass trip is slated for Friday on the <b>Heavy Hitter</b>, but forecasts look like the fishing will be rescheduled, Capt. George. Weather looks good for Saturday, and Sunday appears somewhat rough but fishable, with 15- to 20-knot winds. George expects to bunker-chunk Delaware Bay on striper trips. That fishing was mostly good aboard last year. But if striper fishing becomes reliable at other places, like at Cape May Rips on live bait or bucktails, or on the ocean with clams or on the troll, trips will fish for them wherever’s best. Those are usual ways to fish for stripers in those locations. Nobody was heard about who tried for stripers in past days, and weather was windy. Sea bass season will be opened Friday, and trips for them will be available on the ocean starting then.

The <b>Porgy IV</b> is supposed to begin wreck-fishing daily starting Friday, but weather might cancel the trip that day, Capt. Paul said. Sea bass season will be opened that day, and if Friday’s trip is weathered out, the trips will begin on the first day that the weather is better, and that might be Saturday. Forecasts were good for that day. When trips begin, they’ll sail at 8 a.m. Fishing’s been docked on the boat since sea bass season was closed on October 15. The vessel sailed for sea bass until then. Paul couldn’t know whether sea bass were around now, until trips begin. But the trips now will wreck-fish for whatever fish bites, like maybe a few sea bass, some blackfish and other bottom-fish.

Sounded like striped bass began to be boated from Delaware Bay, said Nick from <b>Hands Too Bait & Tackle</b>. A couple of trips got on them, and catches seemed to come from toward Maurice River Cove and south of the Cock and Balls. So the fish seemed spread out. Sounded like surf anglers picked a few stripers, and weather and waters probably needed to become colder. Today was warm. In the back bay, spearing and rainfish schooled, and lots of stripers foraged on them. Nick was on a trip last night that landed six of the bass to 26 inches on Hogy sand eels. Sand eel imitations were probably good to fish from the bay to the surf, because lots of the baitfish were around. Surf casters sometimes tossed Ava jigs and teasers for that. Blackfishing was very good along the jetties. One is the bag limit, and Nick thinks the fish will stick around when the bag limit is hiked to six on November 16. Water temperatures seemed like they’d hold them. Sea bass season will be opened Friday. Fresh clams in the shell and shucked are stocked, and so are fresh bunker, eels and green crabs.
