Words from Down South?

What's the skinny? How is the fishing in NJ / LI shaping up?

Anxiously waterlogged minds want to know.

Report I got from Saturday was lots and lots of 20 lbers but nothing large so to speak. Doesnt mean there isnt any just not caught from the 4 charter skippers I was with.

Bait is moving in to the creeks so fish are not far behind i know upisland closer to NY fish are starting to be caught. These warm days are bringing them closer every day. I start in the beginning of May .

Big body of 20lb fish showed on the oceanfront on herring and Bunker, One Headboat had over 100 20+lb fish earlier in the week, My first Ocean trip last year was May 12... Good numbers of teen and 20lb fish in the bay, Good numbers clammin', lots of bunker in the bays and river.... Heard of the first 40+lb fish (45)taken of the surf along with a few 30's... This is all Northern NJ, NY Harbor waters...
