Still receiving reports of striped bass and bluefish being caught in the surf…. even the big cows! Bluefish have been more prevalent in the last week with mullet being the bait of choice. Anglers pulling in some keeper fluke off the surf as well as getting them in the bay. In the bay there are also weakfish and some small blues. Out at Little Egg Reef you can get some black sea bass. The Miss Beach Haven is running a 3/4 day trip tomorrow (8am-2pm) out to the reef – sea bass bag limit of 10 per person is until June 19th – book online at www.missbeachhaven.com.
