Atlantic Highlands stripe bass fishing April 17 17 April 2016 Capt. Tom Made both morning and afternoon trips again today. Like the past few days the fishing was no good on the morning trip.
Mike Naipawer, Bloomingdale, NJ, took our first pool of the season yesterday which was also our first fish of the season. The 2016 LEGAL BAG LIMIT for striped bass in NJ is one fish between 28 and 43 with a second fish 43 or larger.
April 16 -- AM PM Trips Sunday, 17 April 2016 21 06 Written by Capt. Derek AM - This mornings open boat trip saw a pick of bass, boxing our under 43 limit with fish to 20 lbs.
We saw a lot more fish today than the past few days, they didn't bite the way we saw them but at least some of them ended up in the boat. The weather for the next several days looks great and as more more fish keep moving into the area the STRIPER fishing should continue to improve.
(Friday) Today we had a charter for Jim and his friends for a day of Bass fishing. (Sunday) Today was a open boat Tog trip and it was tough fishing for us with the big heave and dirty water where we were fishing.
