| I went on the Big Mohawk sunday, all day boat.This Capt.had us on fish most of the day. At one point you would look up an down the boat and see all bent poles with fish on the end.(however, note the men on this boat seem to fish every other day,fishing with jigs it was all business, talking only when the boat had to move). however I had about 20 shorts, came home with five nice fluke + some sea bass to boot.Sad to say 1st good trip of the year for me. I notice that many boats had lots of space on them. this economy must be killing the fishing industry. As for me this shoud have been my 15th fluke fishing trip not my 4th. |

| Fished Great Bay behind the fish house. Two of us nailed close to 30 shorts in four hours in the a.m. One 17 and 3/4 incher. We decided we have to create a "fish rack" to stretch some of these "almosters" out. We were looking forward to some sharking in the p.m. but the wind kicked up and put the brakes on that. We ordered some pizza and had some beverages. Maybe next weekend. |

| Hey Mike, I don't know if I'd waste time chasing Stripers up the river right now-the majority of them are chasing schools of bait in the lower part of the bay and out along the shore. They will make there way back when the water temps go down-probably in November. The way the weather has been, I've been surf fishing the last 2 years right up to Dec 31st. |

first yellowfin of the season for us hit the deck at 6:00. Tons of action
throughout the day with 26 yellowfin brought to the boat out of 50-60 bites.
Lost some fish due to mutiple hookups and only one angler. We also went 0 for 3
on bigeyes. Two mutiple misses on the bars and one hooked up for about 10 mins.
Saw the fish take the bait 20ft off the transom, easy 5 1/2+ foot fish. Fish
ranged in size from barely legal to 75lbs and everywhere in between. We have
this weekend and plenty of weekday availability for canyon fishing and whatever
else you would like to fish for, give a call to jump on. www.FishinFeverSportfishing.com

| Went out for the 1st time with my 2 yr old son, I pretty much watched him so my wife and my buddy Ronnie can get some fluking in. We hit the 1 and 3 cans in Keyport and came up empty. Went over to the reach and started pulling up sea robins, but we stuck it out. My son slept for an hour in which i landed 4 fluke-1 at 19 inches and 4 robins, my wife had 3 robins, and Ronnie had 1 fluke at 18 inches and a few robins. Along with the report below from Ed Sr, I'd like to add, that if you plan on fishing with children and monitoring on channel 68, forget it. Change the channel. The language is out of control. I go out to fish and enjoy myself, not to listen to these idiots. Also, the 6 hour class and $60 along with that hasn't seemed to narrow down the amount of inexperienced personal watercraft capts out there who like to plow though and area of 50 boats fishing a drift. A lot needs to be cleaned up with the state in terms of fishing. I'll support any one or thing out there. Give me my saltwater license if need be. |

| Went out at 4AM this morning with my son Vinnie. We started out at So. Amboy and finnished out at the Sandy Hook Reach. Of the 30 plus fluke we caught only one keeper at 20". We had at least 15 fish that were between 17 and 173/4 ". the rest were under 17'. Its a shame that all the states south of us have salt water licenses and as a result they have in some cases no closed season and 14' size limits. We need to wake up in NJ and fund the proper research that would give us better control of or seasons, bag limits and sizes. Right now we in NJ are at the mersey of the FEDS. |

| Friday, June 20: Awesome bluefishing today aboard the Sea Devil and we
were never more than six miles from home. All fish were caught on jigs and
averaged about eight pounds. The big bluefish weighed about twelve pounds. The
most exciting part of the day began when Dave (Cheesehead) Carlstrom, Bancroft,
WI, hooked into a big fish and it left him unable to turn the reel for a short
while. Mike stepped up to assist and determined that Dave had a big striper on
his line. It took some coaching and determination and finally Dave got the big
fish on the boat. His striper catch measured 44 inches and weighed about
thirty-six pounds! Other highlights include: Tim Clark, Toms River, Jim Yenser,
Birdsboro, PA , John and 'Cheesehead' each had a dozen blues or more.
Sixteen-year-old John Janda, his dad Bill, Birdsboro, PA, and Uncle Chris Janda,
Wilmington, DE, had about ten fish apiece. Chiu and Sam Chau, Edison, were out
for the first time bluenfishing and had quite a few blues! They could only
comment how it was so much more fun than catching a fluke! It was a great day
all around with beautiful weather and calm seas. We look for more great fishing
tomorrow! www.seadevilfishing.com

We finally hit a honey hole where all the brookies were holding - stopped counting the fish caught after 10 each - they were hitting like snapper blues.. All fish were brookies - all caught on small gold spinners - all fish released. The fish in this stretch of the river were all good size - 12" and bigger. Great day before the showers came.

| Went fishing/crabbing down in Barnegat Bay, by Waretown/Barnegat.
Even with years of experience and loads of chum, only bagged one very big blowfish in the bay, no bites whatsoever from anything. The weather was perfect, but the lower bay is still too cold.
We caught 2 dozen keeper crabs but the crabs were found only in real shallow and warmer water, especially in the back bays.Caught a "monster" almost 7" point to point, very big and meaty!!!
too early for the rest of the bay to be alive with fish and crabs.
Those of you looking to crab, look for warmer water, especially near the Oyster Creek Outlet channel, close to land, and in the back bays. Try crabbing in 4' or less of water.
Good luck! |

Headed to the Maul, and two or three of the head boats were there, but more so on the Delaware side, where we didn't go, because didn't have the new Delaware saltwater license. Still, no luck. Moved in toward the stakes off Fortescue, and again, not much biting. Winds were a little stiff, seas were a little rough, and water was dirty, not good conditions. Maybe they'll do better today in calmer conditions. |

| Saturday we headed offshore with a nice crowd on board, I guess the nice
weather brought everybody out today .We fished in 60 feet of water and had some
short sea bass and a few keepers, We worked our way out to 70 feet of water
and the fishing was better, but a far cry from what it has been. I say the
fishing was fair today, several anglers were in the teens, others had double
digits and some had less. The important part was that everybody got to take home
fish. Today's pool winner was Billy's cousin from the Southeast Fishing Club
from Philadelphia,. Pa. www.MissBeachHaven.com |

| Well I was bored this week and wanted to try something different and we decided to try Carp fishing. Man what a surpise, we landed two Carp near 25lbs and one around 15lbs!! Trash fish maybe but the fight is worth it. Had one on and fought with it for 45 minutes before the hook pulled, probably around 30lbs. All in the Raritan River. |

| 5-17Today we had the Joe Kampf charter out at noon for a drum trip. We
looked around a little and set up on some real good marks. Within 10 minutes we
had two drum on and picked away at them the rest of the trip. The crew tallied
16 drum, a limit plus one. Most of the fish we of the smaller variety but we did
manage some big ones to 70lbs. 5-18No charter today, so myself and my girlfriend
Jeanine went out drum fishing for a couple of hours. The bite was definitely on,
as I didn't fish and Jeanine proceeded to land 10 drum to 85lbs in 2 hrs.
5-20Today we had Jay and the boys out for some drumming hoping to pick up where
we left off on Sunday. We set up on the same numbers with a few good marks but
only produced two fish. So we made a move and it payed off. Before we could get
all the lines in, Tom was hooked up. When that fish hit the deck, 3 more rods
folded over. We picked at the fish the rest of the trip and when the dust
settled we had 12 drum to 90lbs. 5-21Today we had Phil and his private charter
back out to the drum grounds. Our first drop only produced junk, so when made a
move outside by ourselves and it didn't take long to get our first drum in the
boat. The guys tallied 15 drum to 70lbs only keeping 2. www.FishinFeverSportfishing.com

Many Blue Crabs were eating away at my bunker while I was surf fishing this past weekend...If they are in the ocean, I'm sure they should be in the bay, right? |

| Fished sandy hook all morning and only saw 1 fish landed... Unfortunately it was a sea robin the oceans were a calm as a lake since the winds were coming from the east. It seems surf fishing never does well on days like that. Finally moved south to point pleasant canal where we caught blues from about 2-4 lbs range on storm shad and metal. It was a long day and we had to work for the fish but a bad day of fishing always beats a good day at work. |

| O'Fishally went out Saturday and trolled up 5 Bass btwn the 20 and 18 buoy on the Jersey side of the reach channel. We used umbrella rigs with black, red, and black green tubes. Biggest fish was 16.8 lbs caught by Lee, Ronnie had a nice 29 incher, and I caught the throw back! There were no signs of fish for the 1st 3 hrs in which we chummed and chunked (sounds like a personal problem)-there was a striper tourney going on I think in Leonardo in which there were not many fish being caught. About 1:45 pm on the outgoing, we started hooking up 1 bass after the next. After 5 bass, and 1 blue, I got on the radio and spread the word and they made the break for home. It turned out to be a good fishing day. |

| Fished with the Bob Schroeder party on Sat 5/10 for drumfish. We had them
on the finder and drumming right under he boat, but no takers. A couple of boats
had them here and there, mostly small fish around 30 pounds. It should break
wide open any day as they finish up spawning. We'll be at it again this weekend.
Report to follow. We do have 3 dates open 5/31, 6/1, and 6/8 if anyone is
interested. Wtih this late bite it will be good until at least mid June. www.daisymayfishing.com |

Made my way down to Sea Isle and tried the Townsends Inlet and 8th street jetty in Avalon using mullet and herring and got 1 blue and 2 skates. Waited for outgoing tide at 10PM and tried the Stone Harbor bay and got 4 stripers 22-27inches in about 2 hours on soft plastics. Long day but fun night. |

| fished the end of the incoming and the start of the outgoing friday night in the reach. Used all live bunker and heads. Had 17 stripers up to 23 lbs and all the blues you wanted up to 8 lbs. Went home got a couple of hours sleep and went again early saturday morning for the same tide in the same general area. Had all the bluefish you wanted again, but could not get a bass. The bass where there but they would not stay with a bait, they would take it run like hell and then just spit it. The fish are here and they will only be getting bigger so tight lines. |
