They are here!! Rob Z. said he had an epic afternoon yesterday catching bass after bass in the surf using salted clams on the incoming tide. Most were within the slot and all were safely released. He had about 4 and missed a few others. There were also a couple afternoon Spring Derby weigh-ins up in Surf City. PJ got his first bass of the season too – just under the slot. The time to get out there is NOW!! The last five weighed in were caught on – sand fleas, bloodworms, surf clams, artificial and salted clams. So that means those stripers are hungry!!
