Weather changing
The weather has been pretty good for fishermen lately, but it appears that will be changing on Sunday.The inshore forecast is for only southwest at 10-15 knots — but with gusts to 25. Showers are also likely.
The Sea Hunter from Atlantic Highlands has canceled its fluke trip for tomorrow. A fast drift today resulted in fishing not being as good as yesterday with only one limit taken.
Capt. Ron Santee Jr. reported that 10 ounces was required to stay near the bottom on his Fishermen, but Anthony Rullo worked through that to catch a double limit up to the pool-winning 6.11-pounder plus two large sea bass.
The Golden Eagle from Belmar had another super variety day with lots of chub mackerel. The non-stop action included blues, sea bass, Spanish and king mackerel, bonito and little tunny.
With thunder booming outside my office, I’m cutting this off before the lights go out!
