At Atlantic Highlands, Capt. Rob Semkewyc canceled fluking on his Sea Hunter because he knew the ocean would be too uncomfortable for his customers. The ocean should be better tomorrow as the wind drops to southwest at 5-10 knots before increasing to 10-15 later.
We are not going to be able to fish the ocean tomorrow. the wind actually blew harder then predicted and the ocean will not be suitable for most ,so we will not be going.
Vinny D Anton had a very brief shot of striper action yesterday morning on his Chug Bug in Shark River, releasing a 33 1 2-incher and two 24-inchers, but he only hooked a 3-pound blue there this morning and no one else even had a hit. After John Mazzeo broke the ice with his first little tunny tthe day before, Allen Riley joined him for the trip to Sandy Hook yesterday morning.
Posted on August 27, 2021 A cat mouse game at sea You can never tell what may happen during a day of fishing at sea, but few anglers are likely to encounter the situation Denny Joyce and his South Jersey crew on Keepa from Waretown ran into after a yellowfin trip to the Atlantic Princess was unproductive. The Sea Hunter also had a good day with fluke and sea bass, but due to tomorrow s forecast of small craft warnings for east winds gusting to 25 knots plus showers Capt. Rob Semkewyc is canceling as it won t be possible to fish in the ocean and there are few keepers in the protected bay.
We had good action right from the start today lots of short fluke and seabass with a few nice ones mixed in. All in all a fun day with a nice group of people.
Started out the day tuna fishing but wasn't much going on so they decided to go hit some mahi mahi. Loaded up on the mahi and once they had enough meat they headed back to the tuna grounds.
that was the largest party boat fluke I ve heard of so far in the NY NJ Bight area. The Golden Eagle from Belmar reported picky early bluefish jigging and then managed a boat limit of sea bass along with both short and keeper fluke.
