yes i am aware & i remember catching them in 15-30ft of water all summer into late november, the ny bight area is barren of blackfish compared to 10yrs ago. was it sandy covering the bottom up? is it the dogfish? is it the bass? is it the catch & release guys catching on 10lb test all summer? Still plenty of life in south nj
