There have been a few more tog weigh-ins and striped bass weigh-ins for the LBI Classic. A couple of them caught down here in Beach Haven! Also here in Beach Haven, Kevin Burns caught a non-tournament keeper striped bass caught on salted clams. Out in the ocean the other day, Michael Schreiber and Jeff Wannamaker had a great trip bringing in 6 monster bass all released safely – largest being 48″ est 55-60lbs. They were just off of Holgate/Beach Haven.
**Please remember the Dos & Don’ts for how to handle a striped bass for catch and release. There is a great article you can read on our home page as well as a laminated card here at the shop.**
