There haven’t been any weigh-ins over the last couple of days but that doesn’t mean the stripers are gone! I did received some pictures yesterday – Roman caught this keeper using salted clam he bought in the morning – 8.1# and 29″ here in Beach Haven. And Pat Gallen caught a 32″ along with with Ralph with a 28.5″ and Ralph’s son with a 39″. They were caught mid island using clam and bunker. The Derby also had its first bluefish weigh in up in Ship Bottom caught by Ted Grob on bunker. The day is beautiful so today is the day to fish and enjoy the warmth. Over the holiday weekend you will be fishing in cold weather gear!
