Fri June 5 – Sunset Jigging for Striped Bass & Blues

Capt Dave G reports a nice sunset Jigging trip. We arrived at the lighthouse at slack tide. There were a few birds around, but no fish. Once the tide started to flood, the action picked up. We chased some birds around to the south side, and we’re able to put together a few nice drifts. We ended up with 2 slot size striped bass, a bunch of bluefish, some jumbo porgies, and some short sea bass which were thrown back. All in all it was a nice evening. High hook and pool winner was Marty Dowd from New York City with a 10 lb Striped Bass.
