Looking at log books from ten years ago and more they are pretty much the same. We started to catch bass on or near April 21.Clamming and trolling worked best. On or near May 1 we switched over to bunker chunking. soon after it is live lining as the water gets even warmer and the bass are less lethargic. I am strictly talking about Raritan Bay and Princess Bay. In my opinion the later this run starts the better. If they come early they leave early. Last year was a good year and a normal year in the bay. It did not start too early and lasted thru the whole month of June. We are all anxious to get started but in reality it is still early. Does anyone agree with me on this?
