Re: Cabin Fever
First fish in the spring are usually caught from the beaches of Keyport harbor in late March and are caught on bait, not lures.

Re: Cabin Fever
Either there or all the way down at the end of radio road at Tuckerton in Great Bay... sandworms and bloodworms.. That may have changed by now, haven't been there in decades, but it was a good "first fish of the season" spot in very early spring for stripers, some years as early as late february they would start.. Probably not this year.... bob

Re: Cabin Fever
Huh, very interesting. You would think somewhere along the shoreline would be the first to get fish. Keyport being so tucked in behind sandy hook i wouldn't have thought they'd get fish that early. I'm not opposed to bait! What usually shows up first?

Re: Cabin Fever
That's why I'm asking the best of the best! Like i said, just started in the surf last year, so I'm trying to learn as much as I can before the season is here so I can have some better success! I managed pretty well on my own last year, caught a bunch of different stuff, but as you said there is much to learn!

Re: Cabin Fever
The last few years bunker have shown up really early. Nothing chases them in the cold bay water. Caught them in the back of the bay both from Jersey and Staten island side.
I've been shaking off the cabin fever by snagging a few each fishable weekend in March. Good exercise - lots of casting. Gets some bait in the freezer. |

Re: Cabin Fever
Thanks for all the intel fellas, going start researching some of the stuff mentioned here. Can't wait to get back in the salt, I grew up spending summers in LBI working and surfing, but never fishing. Gotta make up for it this year!
