Nj is the land of blitz fishin.In the early 90's I have had 80-100 fish days/nights when the sand eels where here.mayhem on the peanuts in the last 6-7 years.an recently large bunker pods gettin pushed/trapped againts the jetty's.most of the fish in the pic are 20lbs plus.mine was 26 I am on the left side wit the white boots.Thats Gary2 next to me.one fish im the middle is 36 an change.Hundreds of fish over 30 have been taken this yr on pencils.Simply amazing fishin.
This has been goin on for a 3 yrs now since they pushed the bunker reduction boats off shore.I remember one of the first times we got em.It was a boiling hot summer day an my friend called around 4:30.I was at work still he had a few bunker to liveline.so I met him at a jetty an we swam some baits.nothin doin so i moved a big squall was comin thru an he had no rain gear an left.So I was livelinen an there was One bolt of lightning an its raining I say to myself one more bolt an I'm out of here.well it never happened I got one high teenager an relesed him back at the truck another bud pulls up an says two friends are down the street.so we go over there an as we get out of the truck we can see that the jetty is blowin up wit bunker pinned. i yell get ur rods an a gaff an we run down an proceed to tommahawk 30 lbers for 2 hrs. only the 4 of us at first but many would see us as this spot can be seen from a road.one fish taken on a little creek chub popper was 46 lbs.There have been many similar events since then in the last three yrs the 2nd week in june till it ends sometime after the 4 th.like clock work.if we get a west wind the bait sucks in an its garunteed to happen someplace.Wish U where here.........
