Sea Bass baits
Looking to do some fishing around Sandy Hook once Sea bass season opens on Oct. 18. Was wondering what everyones favorite baits are for sea bass. Have used sandworms in the past for porgies. I know they also catch sea bass but are there better options for sea bass. Any thoughts appreciated... Thanx Walt

Inshore, FRESH clam, tipped on top of a 4" swimming mullet gulp. Basic High-Lo Rig with 2/0 or 3/0 hooks.
If you have fished for blackfish at all, wait for a similar style bite. Ignore the little taps and pecks, swing when your rod started thumping. Don't over complicate sea bass.

Re: Sea Bass baits
Squid or Clams is all you need. Smaller diamond jigs with treval hooks and little flat sided butterfly jigs work well when the fish are abundant.
