Re: Miss Belmar - JUMBO blues, COD & a 30 lb STRIPER!
Every “expert” NJ Saltwater fishing “Ambassador” knows that:
You can only catch winter flounder in the bays and rivers and only in the cooler months, never on deepwater wrecks or rough stuff in the summer.
Yellowfin Tuna are only found in the canyon or nearby flats, certainly never inshore of 30 fathoms.
Bluefin Tuna are only found inshore, but not within sight of land, never caught by beach fisherman and never in or near the canyon.
Blackfish will never hit a Killie or lure, they are only caught on crustaceans and mollusks. The largest are only caught on rough stuff in deeper water, never in the bay.
Cod are a winter fish and not caught inshore and were never caught from the beach.
Large Stripers and Blue fish are not usually caught inside of 3 miles, especially together and especially at this time of year. Even in jest I had trouble typing this one.
It is not proper fishing etiquette to have a picture taken holding or standing next to a fish that you did not land solo while abiding by all IGFA rules.
Sheepshead are a southern fish and were never caught in Sheepshead Bay, not even one.
Elephants don’t eat peanuts.
Please feel free to add you own expert “Ambassador” observations/facts.
