Posted on January 23, 2020 Good blackfish conditions Though the weekend looks poor at this time, the next two days appear to be ideal for blackfishing which is still holding up inshore due to the lack of very cold water. The  forecast for Thursday is just west at 5 knots with seas of one foot or less. Getting set on anchor may be the biggest problem for blackfish boats. At Belmar, the Ocean Explorer reported good Tuesday blackfishing (see photo below) with many of the tog in the in the 5-8-pound class and some limits along with a few keeper cod and ling.
