Happy New Year, winter is here and the ocean the temps continue to fall. The Tautog are eating well on reefs and wrecks when the weather lets us get out ... the bay temps have dropped from the catching zone and into the fishing zone. Tuna have shown up and are swimming south along our coast. There's also large model Striped Bass (must be within 3 miles and 28" to 31"). If you do not see a trip that suites your needs please get in touch and I will create a custom trip for you.
