As I said yesterday….The striped bass are here!! 3 more Spring Derby striper weigh-ins yesterday. Also had reports of many other bites – some short, some that didn’t make it in and some too big! Here at the store, Al Parente weighed-in a 14.92#, 32.5″ bass and right after Rob Zarko had a 17.56#, 35.75″ bass. Both caught in Beach Haven Terrace and both on surf clams. Rob’s put him in first place….. for a short while… until Jimmy Betz weighed in a 19.14# up in Surf City!
Today we have surf clams (in shell – will have shucked later today) and bloodworms!
