I easily forget how much fun those night Bluefish trips can be because I hate eating them.

haha! i give most of mine away, they don't go to waste! i only keep a few small ones and grill it the next day. It's good when fresh and cooked the right way, but a day out, forget it! :D

i like to catch the false albacore in september and october during the blue fishing trips

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Been a while but Yellowfin tuna, Longfin tuna, Swordfish, Mahi.

And bonito and false albacore.

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Hmmmm.... Fluke :D Followed by Bass...great poll.

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Big Bass and Big Fluke. Good Poll

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Offshore---tuna
Inshore--- Bluefish
Most frustrating---fluke

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Blackfish..then fluke..then striped bass...

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

I gotta go with fluke, then tog, then stripes. Or maybe fluke then stripes then tog, or maybe tog, then fluke, then stripes, or possibly stripes, then fluke, then tog. :confused:

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

KINGFISH!!!

Jesey's got the biggest kings when they are running right- and most guys don't even know what they are! I've caught them over 2 lbs and one of the best fighting fish on light tackle there is. - also- good eat'n

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

My favorite is fluke, followed closely by sea bass and stripers.:)

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Only one fish fits-----Mr. Mako!!!!!!!!!!

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Inshore= Tog
Offshore= Marlin

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

1st Blackfish
2nd Fluke
3rd Cod

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Why no Tuna or Tilefish in the poll ? I will take Yellowfin every time .

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Tog
Fluke
Tile and Tuna Tied

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

My favorite is whatever is biting!

Agreed. :D

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

I voted "other" because I can catch all of the above in NY without difficulty. I guess my favorite fish to catch in Jersey is Black Drum since we don't get them very often.

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Add GIANT knucklehead sea bass on the offshore wrecks along with cod and pollock.

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

LARGE ones...!
Tog
Striper
Fluke
Snapper( for fluke)
Bluefish ( for makos)

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Flounder fishing used to be my favorite until the 2 fish limit

El Bastardos

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Inshore Blackfish and Stripers

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Stripers get my vote because there are a million different ways to target them. Bait, lures, trolling, casting, land, boat, bay, ocean etc. Putting all the pieces together to find the right combination of presentation, place, and time is the greatest thing about fishing! Also, I have yet to catch a tuna, but I'd imagine that they will become my new favorite once I get a bit better at the offshore game...

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

The challenge (at least for me)- blackfish

The complexity of both bait and presentation- fluke

The taste- ling all the way

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Me too.

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

i didnt even think of tile fish or tuna. Must of went over my head. Thats why i put the " other" option there, just in case if i missed anything

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

im suprised fluke is in the lead so far, I figured striped bass would have the most votes.

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Love the blackfish hit and blue fishing at night is a blast especially when they are close and hit glow jigs! I voted for the tog.

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

The 3 T's

TUNA TOG & TILES!!!

Re: favorite kind of fish to catch in nj

Fruke.... lumbah wan! :D
