The Toms River’s striped bass fishing was great at night, decent on overcast days, said Dennis from Hook House Bait & Tackle. Dennis wasn’t asked the size of the fish, but previously said most were throwbacks but a few were keepers. Bloodworms, Rapala X-Raps, Yo-Zuri 3D Minnows, other lures like that and Kettle Creek shads socked them. Winter flounder were picked from the river at Island Heights. Few anglers fished for them, but they caught. Flounder and stripers were plucked from Barnegat Bay in the Pelican Island area, pretty much on bloodworms. But kayakers plugged the stripers. Kayakers also fished for stripers on the Toms off Crab Road in Beachwood. Waders and fly-rodders, a mixed bag, also fished there. A few flounder and stripers were rounded up from the bay near Mantoloking Bridge and Point Pleasant Canal. Nothing great, but a few, all on worms. Bloodworms, sandworms, salted clams, shiners, killies, nightcrawlers and garden worms are stocked. Hook House, located on Route 37, also owns Go Fish Bait & Tackle on Fischer Boulevard in Toms River.
