Mike headed out to the Ocean City Reef yesterday and came home with several nice flounder.  Topping the box was this 6 pound 4 ounce flatty.  He said the bite was steady with plenty of throw backs to keep you buissy between the keepers.

10 1/2 pound flounder from Sea Isle City

Larry V from Blue Anker NJ had a whopper flounder to day.  10 pounds 8 ounces taken on a shoal just off Sea Isle.  This monster ate a buck tail tipped with a big long strip of Squid.  The fish where dam near jumping in the boat this weekend with great reports of many fish in the 4-7 pound rang but this fish was tops.  T.I. reef, O.C. reef, Avalon shoal, peacock shoal, and many other spots all had good action.  The best rig was a big buck tail 3-6 ounces with a high hook.  The best baits where GULP! mackerel, and Squid.  The ocean fishing is getting very HOT so go get some.

The estuaries are full of fun….

My niece was putting  the smack down on spots, croakers, sea bass weakfish, sand sharks and flounder the other day.  There are loads of little things for the kids to go out and catch.  The tackle and bait is affordable and easy.  All you need are kingfish or sabiki rigs, fish bites or blood worms, 1 or 2 ounces of lead and a light weight rod and away you go.  This is a great opportunity to expose kids to the great out doors.  It will teach them catch and relic and to appreciate the butte and wonder of the sea.

Flounder still in the Bay

Check out Kelly C with this healthy flounder it was just shy of 6 pounds.  Kelly was fishing with her daughters and husband behind Avalon yesterday afternoon.  Wile Kelly flounder fished the girls staid busy with not stop action from the sea bass, croakers and spots.  Small hooks with fish bites or squid was the ticked for them.
