Really cranking out thee today. Big difference from yesterday. Have to say I am kind of glad, with the fish hitting the beach on a Saturday after the word is out would mean a ton of dead bass. I gave it a go picking pockets but nothing to show for it. Saw a few guys huddled up throwing bucktails landing a few small bass. It might take a day or so for this to clear out, tomorrow the surfers will be in their glory with big swells on the way.
So if you're looking to "match the hatch", the stripers and blues were on butterfish and squid and small weakfish and or bunker. The picture below was taken by StormR pro-stafer Chris Buchta, who has probably caught 500 bass this fall in Jersey alone.
