Fished on sunday. Had to stay inside because of the NE winds. Sandy Hook bay was dead. Tried right near the tip of the hook and got a few shorts and sea robins. Tried by the ammo pier and got nothing. Then we tried another spot near the marina (because of the high winds) and got about 20 shorts. Zero keepers throughout the day. Fluking has really sucked this year. Can't wait for stripers and blackfish.

I think it's a matter of choice of bait, tide and location. I think the fishing has been pretty good the last few weekends.

I didn't cut the hooks off my buck tails like someone I know. Though, even without the hooks you manage to catch fish while everyone else seems to struggle.

The boat I fished on this past Saturday had a steady pick of fish up to #6.15. Fished from the Triangle to mid bay.

Great pic dupes. I've been using bucktails, squid , gulp, live killies, spearing, live snappers. Just having a bad fluke year. This time last year I had keepers everyday and was eating fluke 3 times a week lol saved me money this year I'm striking out. I'm killing it on the snapper fishing off my boat at the marina though hahahaha unfortunately that doesn't count for much
