none here

I was down in NJ last weekend (Spring Lake/Belmar). Tackle shops say some keepers have been caught mostly with bait but its still slow. I fished from the beach and jetty with both clams and lures and just got a skate. They can't show up soon enough for me!

Most of the guys including myself are using long rods to get distance.If there happens to be a cow in the area who do you think would have a better chance of landing one you with your sissy trout rod no one of us.
