Fresh Ocean Township Fishing Reports

We made the long inshore run to the flats inside the Tom’s canyon and found life instantly. We had our first bite one hour in and put a nice 50lb bluefin in the box. We circled around but didnt mark so we moved on to stay with the life. Shortly after we boated a 50lb yellowfin and only had the spread half back set when we hooked another indentical yellowfin. After that it was on. We pounded the same area and continued to hook up finishing the day with 2 50lb bluefin with 2 others released. 4 yellowfin woth 3 being in the 50lb class. We called it after running out of ice and made the run home. The first 15 was sporty on the nose but then got comfortable and the last 18 miles were lake flat and 35 knots back to the inlet!

Today we had Garrett and his family out to bend some rods. We started out looking for some fluke and had 3 short fluke and 2 weakfish right away but then lost the tide. We made a pivot to a wreck and put together an 8 species mixed bag with a limit of black sea bass to 18”, 2 ling, and some mackerel making the box. Plenty of action of smiles all day long. Flat seas made a wonderful ride home.

The fish are hungry and LOADED with sand eels which means our jig bite has been off the charts with fish to 20 (TWENTY!) inches!!! Our keeers averaged about 15” or so. Get on this bite before the spring season closes!
