No Spring Derby weigh-ins yesterday but many reports of BIG striped bass being caught up and down the island! Matt Shapiro, Danyaal T, Jude all reporting and taking pictures of over-sized striped bass yesterday all on clams (fresh and salted) and Russ Andrews and Bob Sullivan and Mugs all reporting keeper size. There are bluefish out there as well and an occasional fluke off the surf too. In the bay there are fluke and weakfish. It’s a great time to get out there!
Today we have SURF CLAMS, FRESH BUNKER and BLOODWORMS!
