Just had one of the guys back in from Lot 6 getting more worms. This has been a fantastic tide this week. It couldn’t have aligned any better! He said they were catching stripers on worms and clams. The ocean is a bit rough so when the surf is churned up then the clams come into action also. I believe he said that he had gotten at least 11 fish this morning. Another fishermen in from the morning tide said he did well on a Murderous Richard (a.k.a.-The Deadly Dick). Here’s hoping that this great fising continues. If you like to fish with lures, get to lot 6 or 7 and start walking north.

 

Here’s a note from Marcelo V. at Lot 6 this morning, “Just Wanted to send In my 30″ from parking lot 6 this mornin around 7 am. Got him on clams. Caught about another 8-10 schoolies using the same. Lets hope it continues this week!”

    Question, the fish Marcelo is holding displays multiple staggered/broken lines. I believe this means that it is a Hudson River fish. Can anyone confirm this assumption?

    Saw much of the same at lot 6 early morning. Churned up water and fish at your feet. Did notice bait out fishing lures but had a 15 min period when every cast w/ a deadly dick hooked up. Nothing of any size though.
