Hi Everybody!!!

Well the Mackerel are starting to thin out in the Harbor and the Blues are making a strong showing. There was a blitz of fish up in the Fore River the other day, from 10:30 am till 1:00 pm with bustin blues all over. We had some top water action late in the morning on Sunday out in the boat with a very nice size school of bass pushing the bait to the top.

There is still quite a bit of herring around, so if you happen to jig some of these puppies up, they will work just as good as livelining mackerel. Tube and worm is starting to produce better results now that the big bait is thinning a bit and so are eels.

If you get into those schools of surface bass, try using a 3/4 oz chrome creek chub, or a sardine or mackerel pattern yo-zuri mag popper. Those have both been very productive on top. As for soft baits guys have been doing well on 9 inch all white/pearl sloggo's, and 4 inch all pearl shads.

The shore fishing has been on the slow side, but with the mackerel thinning out and the baby bunker starting to show. Things should pick up real soon, so don't give up hope. Just keep trying, you never know what might hit the end of your line!!!

Last Sunday Baicaster caught a 14 lb 1oz bluefish. So there are some big choppers headed to the surf, get ready to hang on!!!!!
