Gary LaMotta and friend Jack bunker chunked a 21-pound striped bass and a 16-pounder respectively in the ocean off Long Branch.

Tim Wilsey's charter with Jersey Cape Guide Service, Sea Isle City, trolled a 100-pound bluefin tuna on Tuesday near 19-Fathom Lump on a horse ballyhoo with an Ilander dragged way, way behind the boat. The bluefins wanted nothing
to do with the boat.

Big, gaffer mahi mahi were also
on the grounds with the bluefins. This one on the charter also attacked a bally on an Ilander.

Striped bass caught and released at Barnegat Inlet with Reel Fantasea Charters, Barnegat Light.

Before the anglers
with Reel Fantasea played short
stripers, and also decent-sized blues, at the inlet, they wreck
fished for sea bass.

And that's about how the fishing went for several charters with Reel Fantasea through the week: sea bass, like this coolerful, were nabbed at the ocean wrecks, and blues and stripers were fought from the inlet to Barnegat Bay, solid fishing for all, the captain said.

The captain from Reel Fantasea also put the word out that crabbing was great in the area to boot.

The season's first offical fluke charter fished with Andrea's Toy Charters, Point Pleasant, toward the end of last week. Reports from the reefs sounded slow, so the anglers ended up fishing in 40 and 50 feet to the north.

When all was said and done, the charter with Andrea's Toy claimed 17 keeper fluke, a couple dozen keeper sea bass and a few ling.

Whoa.
Well, maybe that fluke used
to be a keeper. Andrea's Toy is
also running open-boat trips offshore for mixed bags of tuna, mahi mahi and tilefish.

Some of the catch from a trip
on the Stray Cat from Longport:
a couple of fluke and a sea bass. Charters and open-boat trips were fishing for fluke, sea bass and
tuna. Longport is a few towns
south of Atlantic City.

One of five keepers that "Nelson 56" boated on the party boat Big Mohawk from Belmar on Sunday.

"Nuno" wrestled in this
24-inch, 5-1/4-pound fluke from the waters around Sandy Hook.

Fluke fishing improved
somewhat in the ocean off
Elberon and Long Branch on a trip Saturday morning with Fish Monger Charters, Brielle, though the fishing was still heavy on shorts and sea bass. But six keeper fluke, including 5-pounders, and sea bass made the cooler. Join a Monger Marathon, weekly, open-boat trips for fluke that are BYOB: bring your own bucktail.

Flounder fishing was holding up in the bay around Somers Point, and Kevin Jacobs belted this 26-inch 3.1-pounder on the Tinker Toy off Kennedy Park, weighing in the catch at MY BAIT & TACKLE in the town. Ships Channel was another place weigh-ins were boated.
