Posted on July 29, 2021 White Marlin Open coming up next week The big game tournament season moves into high gear next week as the White Marlin Open in Ocean City, Maryland runs from Aug. 2 to 6. The bigeye tuna bite was excellent during the recent Jimmy Johnson Quest for the Ring Tournament in Atlantic City (see photo below), and that fishery will draw attention from those not concentrating on white marlin with much lighter tackle.
A good day with nice size Fluke and some nice size seabass and a couple Blues, The pool was another 7 lber today and runner up was 5,6. We will not be fishing tomorrow I have something to take care of and tomorrow looks like the best day to do it with the weather forecast I know not many people will be showing up.
and that fishing was good for 2-7-pounders on jigs which also produced some sea bass, fluke and ling before more sea bass hit on bait. At Atlantic Highlands, the Sea Hunter reported another good fluke day with quality fish topped by a 7-pounder that beat a 6.
Tank Matraxia was fluking yesterday at Scotland aboard Tagged Fish from Highlands when Capt. Chad Hacker pointed out medium bluefins jumpimg nearby. That wasn t the case recently for Capt. Jim Freda on his Shore Catch out of Manasquan Inlet as he put Liam Kelly of the Manasquan High School Fishing Club into position to hook a 71-inch bluefin that hit a popper.
Mistake 2 left inshore right before bite started getting to canyon after bite ended!Glad Capt Willy on the 31 got a nice one, on a half day trip with Mark Aitken and family.
