<b>Atlantic Highlands</b>
Fluke trips sailed every day, despite rough weather sometimes, on the party boat <b>Atlantic Star</b>, Capt. Tom said. Trips stayed sheltered in the bay when seas became too rolly toward the ocean. The fishing was slower on both of Thursday’s trips, and shorts and a couple of keepers were caught every place the boat sailed, including at Flynn’s Knoll, along the channel and in the bay. On Friday the angling improved a little, both of the trips fishing at Ambrose Channel. On Saturday morning’s trip, seas were rolly at Ambrose, but the anglers held up, catching some of the flatties there. But in the afternoon seas were too much at Ambrose, so the trip fished on the west side of the Navy Pier, angling up shorts and some keepers. Sunday morning’s trip began fishing at Ambrose, and a few fluke were nabbed. But some of the patrons became seasick, so the trip moved to the bay, and the anglers picked the fish. On Sunday afternoon the trip stayed in the bay, because of forecasts, fishing at the head of the Navy Pier and west of the pier, and one angler bagged three keepers, and a couple bagged two, and some bagged one, and others bagged no keepers, but all hooked at least shorts. Winds blew 20 to 25 m.p.h. on the trip this morning, when Tom gave this report at 10 o’clock over the phone. The trip so far had fished at the TC buoy and in the bay behind Sandy Hook, and seas made fishing toward the ocean out of the question for the fleet, but some of the fish were already biting on the outing. Atlantic Star is fishing for fluke on two trips daily 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. Bummed that fluke season will end soon? Don’t be, because the Atlantic Star bid for a <b><i>Research Set Aside Permit</i></b> that would allow the boat to continue fluke fishing when the flattie season ends. Tom expects trips to continue fishing for fluke the day after fluke season closes with the permit. The bag limit will be the same as the current one in New Jersey, and two trips will continue sailing daily. Afterward the boat will begin bottom fishing for sea bass and porgies on one trip daily, until the trips begin fishing for blackfish later in the year.
On the party boat <b>Fishermen</b> the fluke trip Sunday fished along the channel and kept working offshore in the morning to beat the tide against winds that would create a roll afterward, Capt. Ron said in the report on the boat’s Web site. Good fishing for the flatties was clocked, and Tommy Krako was high hook with a limit of six and more, keeping no more than his quota. Another angler landed nine keepers, keeping no more than his limit. John Froelich won the pool and bagged five keepers. Two cousins combined for seven keepers and some sizeable sea bass. “Felt bad for those who couldn’t make it for today’s bite,” Ron said. Saturday’s trip also scored well on fluke before the tide changed, and seas became rough, fishing offshore to stay ahead of the tide as long as possible. Good-sized fluke and some sea bass began to be claimed, until one of the anglers passed out. The boat had to be run back to the Coast Guard to get the angler to the hospital, and the trip’s last two drifts fished on the bay, and the 5-pound pool-winning fluke was caught. Ron Thorn, a deck hand for Ron 28 years ago, was high hook with five keepers to 4 ½ pounds. The Fishermen is sailing for fluke 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. daily and for bluefish 3:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays.
<b>Highlands</b>
<b>Fisher Price Charters</b> bottom and fluke fished through the weekend, though angling was cancelled on the boat Sunday because of weather, Capt. Derek said. In the bottom fishing fewer sea bass were around than before, but some of the humpheads, porgies and blackfish were pumped in. Maybe winds affected sea bass. But fluke fishing was good, and up to a 12-pound monster was slugged, and anglers aboard caught them down the ocean beach, and bucktails worked best. Charters are fishing, and open-boat trips will sail for fluke Thursday to Saturday, if the weather cooperates. Anglers can call Derek to be kept informed about the open schedule. Phenomenal catches of bluefin tuna were walloped Friday and Saturday 50 to 70 miles from shore, anglers who sailed for them said. Anglers were calling the waters “inshore/offshore.” Fisher Price is fishing for bluefins on charters and open trips when enough of the tuna are around.
<b>Neptune</b>
Fishing for fluke was the best of the year so far on the ocean in the past week for <b>Last Lady Fishing Charters</b>, Capt. Ralph said. The flatties to 9 pounds were boated, and the catches continued on a trip Sunday, when the bottom-huggers to 6 pounds were bagged. The final day of fluke season is two weeks from today on September 6, and spaces are available on only two individual-reservation trips for fluke on Wednesday, September 1, and Sunday, September 5. Kids under 12 sail free, limited to two children per adult. Inshore bottom fishing was great for Last Lady, rounding up sea bass to 5 pounds. Bluefish were off the spawn and biting again. Offshore cod fishing was super for Last Lady this summer, and two of the trips are slated for this week. Another individual-reservation trip for cod, pollock and ling will be slated for September. Bluefin tuna fishing turned on again, not that far from shore. Farther from the coast, an overnight tuna trip to the canyons looks to be shaping up for Tuesday to Wednesday, September 7 to 8. Some are already interested in going, and call Ralph to find out about the trip. Charters are available for all of these species.
<b>Belmar/b>
On the <b>Nan Sea J</b> good fluke fishing was dusted on the ocean last week until rough seas and weather Sunday, Capt. Tom said. Until the weather, anglers aboard generally bagged a couple of keepers apiece, and a few limited out, and sea bass were always mixed in. On Sunday winds blew, rains fell and the trip returned to port somewhat early. Trips sailed for bluefish early last week, covered in a previous report, and catches of big ones definitely picked up, after bluefishing had been slow previously, apparently because of spawning. The Nan Sea J is also fishing for bluefin tuna on the inshore ocean on charters and open-boat trips. Call for the open schedule. The season’s first overnight trip for tuna to the canyons farther offshore is slated for Wednesday to Thursday.
<b>Brielle</b>
Four trips, including two trips Friday and Saturday, limited out on fluke on the ocean last week with <b>Fish Monger Charters</b>, Capt. Jerry said in the reports on the boat’s Web site. He hopes it holds up! The fishing on Saturday’s trip, scoring a limit for the five anglers, was tough at times. But the group fished hard, making the most of the angling when the fluke bit. A couple of sea bass were also cranked aboard. On Friday’s trip, clobbering a limit for six anglers, the catch included an 8-1/2-pounder, the third 8-pounder of the week on the boat. A 7-pound fluke and a 6-1/2-pounder were also tackled. The fishing during the week was some red-hot fluking! Jerry said.
<b>Point Pleasant</b>
Fluke fishing on the ocean was sporadic for a few days toward the end of the week on the party boat <b>Gambler</b>, but seemed somewhat to improve on Saturday, Capt. Bob said. Cleaner, better-looking waters seemed to move in, and waters looked cloudy for two weeks previously. Fluke 4 to 5 pounds were the pool-winners on most trips, and sea bass to 3 pounds were also decked. Stan Dole, Asbury Park, won the pool on Saturday morning’s trip with a 4-pound 9-ounce fluke, bagging two more keepers. Fluke trips are sailing twice daily 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Bluefish trips are running 7:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. Fridays and Saturdays. Trips for ling, sea bass, cod and squid are fishing 7:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. Sundays and Mondays. <a href=" http://www.gamblerfishing.net/offshoretrips.html
" target="_blank">Canyon tuna trips</a> will begin in mid September and are beginning to be booked.
Good fishing for big blues was swiped up on the party boat <b>Cock Robin</b> on Friday, an e-mail from the boat said. A school of large blues was jumped on the ocean just outside the inlet at first on the trip. The slammers chased bunker, and the trip followed jumping bunker to keep up with the blues. Eventually a fleet of small boats arrived, and the Cock Robin was moved when too many crowded the waters, making maneuvering difficult. The trip ran north, based on word about bluefishing going off there. The boat arrived, and the patrons jigged blues on a slow, steady pick all day. The fish were challenging to hook, and the anglers dropped as many as they landed, sometimes more. Good bluefishing was busted on Thursday’s trip, on bait instead of jigs for part of the trip. The boat followed a tight school of the fish, until a lull during the change of tide. But catches turned back on, this time on bait, when the tide began again. No reports rolled in from the boat during the weekend. The Cock Robin is bluefishing 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. daily and 7:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. Fridays and Saturdays. <b>***Update:***</b> Bluefishing during the daytime trip Saturday wasn’t as good as the crew would hope, “but those that could, caught, and … those that struggled, really struggled,” an e-mail from the boat said. The blues wouldn’t hang close to the boat in the chum slick, staying farther back instead. But bluefishing was good on Saturday night’s trip. On Sunday’s trip big blues were found until they disappeared around noontime, when the weather began to deteriorate. A trip today attempted to sail for blues, meeting a large but manageable swell in the beginning. But 6- to 8-foot seas, occasional 10- to 12-footers, began to build up in 30 minutes, and the trip returned to port. The anglers were given a ticket for a future trip.
Ten bluefin tuna were pounded on a trip Friday with <b>Andrea’s Toy Charters</b>, reports on the boat’s Web site said. The trip arrived at the grounds at 7 a.m., and a bluefin was jigged within 5 minutes. The anglers were new to tuna fishing and jigging, but caught on quickly. Later mahi mahi cruised by, and a few were boxed. That was a great catch, but bluefin fishing was on during some days, off during others. It was off during a charter that attempted to catch the fish Wednesday. The anglers, intending to fish both for bluefins and for yellowfin tuna farther offshore on the trip, first stopped at the bluefin grounds. But no bluefins hit in a couple of hours. Not much was marked on the fish finder, though skipjacks and bait swam the waters. So the trip motored offshore to Hudson Canyon at the 100 Square, after first stopping at 100 fathoms between the Dip and the Hudson, finding seas too rough in winds there. At the 100 Square the trip set up for the night, but nothing bit, except two run-offs immediately on arrival. Up on the troll the next morning, one fish bit and came tight a while, but got off. The trip attempted to drift for tilefish, but there was no drift. The crew decided to look for mahi mahi to put fish in the box, and nearly a dozen were pelted. The anglers tried looking for bluefins again on the way home, but waters were dirty. “Tough, long day,” the report said, “but (the) understanding and appreciative (anglers) made it better.” A charter fished inshore for a combo of bluefish and sea bass on Saturday. Good-sized blues were battled right away. When the trip had enough of blues, a dozen keeper sea bass and one sizeable blackfish were picked up at a few pieces on the way home.
With <b>Reel Class Charters</b> one of the open-boat Fluke Till You Puke Trips plowed 27 keeper fluke to 6 pounds on Friday, Capt. Allen said. There was lots of action, and many shorts were tossed back, and 13 keeper sea bass were coolered. The anglers fished on the ocean to the north almost 10 hours, the full time the trips are scheduled to run. A half-day combo fluke and sea bass charter on Thursday found a healthy population of fluke early in the day, hooking a few keepers and a bunch of shorts, on the ocean straight off Manasquan Inlet and at Axel Carlson Reef. Next the anglers fished for sea bass, socking 25 keepers, a good catch, and some sizeable blackfish. So the trip was productive. On Saturday a trip headed out for a combo of blues, fluke and sea bass. Jigging for bluefish was terrible, for some reason, despite birds that worked waters everywhere. Maybe 20 keeper sea bass were tugged up from Axel Carlson and Sea Girt reefs, but more of the fish bit at Axel. One sizeable blackfish came up, and the rest of the tog that bit were small. A trip Sunday ran north for fluke and sea bass, and a couple of keeper fluke and 15 shorts were hooked on the first drift, and the same number were landed on the second. South winds began to scream, and the fish couldn’t be found again, and the anglers came back early at 1 p.m., destroyed by head seas and rains. Four keeper fluke and four keeper sea bass were totaled. A trip today was cancelled because of rough, northeast weather, and another on Tuesday was expected to be cancelled because of forecasts, and whether a trip Wednesday would be able to sail in the weather looked doubtful. Charters and open-boat trips are sailing, and check the online <a href="http://www.reelclassfishing.com/rates/open-boat-info" target="_blank">schedule</a> for available dates for the open trips. Lots of calls already rolled in about trips this fall for sea bass, porgies, blackfish and striped bass. Allen heard about no false albacore or bonito swimming close to shore so far, but if the fish appear, charters and open-boat trips will go after them. The trips also target bluefin tuna if bluefins move close to shore, but they currently swan 80 miles off.
<b>Seaside Park</b>
Bottom fish weren’t biting everywhere, but when anglers did locate them, excellent catches were beaten, and the angling was about as good as it gets on trips Thursday to Saturday, said Capt. Rob “Birch” Birchmeier from <b>Fishguts Inshore Charters</b>. A trip attempted to fish Sunday, but lousy weather and slow fishing cut the outing short. A trip today would probably fish on Barnegat Bay because of forecasts for rough, northeast weather. Three anglers jumped on the trip Thursday, coming five sea bass short of their limit. The knuckleheads, good-sized, weighed up to 2 ½ pounds, and six porgies to 14 inches and two tog to 15 inches were bagged. A great day on some of the best numbers of sea bass Birch has seen in summer, he said. Two of the anglers returned for a trip the next day, Friday, and the third had to cancel, missing again some of the best numbers of sea bass Birch ever saw in summer. The two anglers easy limited out on sea bass and blackfish, also putting two ling, a porgy and a 19-inch, keeper fluke in the box. “A summer day to remember for sure,” Birch said. On Saturday three anglers climbed on deck, putting together a good catch of large bottom fish. The fishing began slowly, “but the early afternoon more than made up for it,” Birch said. After a few moves, quality-sized sea bass, 15- to 16-inchers, and a few bigger ones, jumbos to 3.6 pounds, were creamed. The anglers iced a good catch of the lumpheads, opting to leave them biting to target blackfish. They ran into some of the most and biggest blackfish of the season so far! Five-pound blacks flew over the rails, then one of the anglers called for the net. A 10.65-pound 26-inch blackfish, the biggest of the season so far on the boat, was drilled. More than 30 of the tog 13 to 20 inches were released. Again, the trips were “summer sea bassing at its best,” Birch said, and blackfish, porgies, ling, fluke, blues and cod were mixed in lately. Fishguts specializes in catching good numbers of quality-sized sea bass close to shore in summer.
<b>Barnegat Light</b>
Fluke gathered in the ocean off Seaside, and some bigger ones than before were weighed in, said Bob Misak in the report on <b>Barnegat Light Bait & Tackle</b>’s Web site. He fished off the Barnegat Inlet jetty, bagging a 16-inch tog off the bat, finding the blackfish cooperative as usual. He also went home with a whopper, 10-pound sheepshead and a keeper fluke from the jetty. Fishing from the jetty will only become better through fall, and remember to wear Korkers on the slick rocks. Spear fishers told Bob not many triggerfish moved in along the jetty so far. Kingfish were beached from the surf on fresh pieces of clam on high tides, and old sharpies used the clam guts for chum. In Barnegat Bay the blowfish population was slowly building, and Bob’s taxidermist and the taxidermist’s son collected 25 to 30 of the puffers, perfect eating-sized, on a trip. Crabbing was off the hook nearly everywhere around the bay, and Bob saw a good catch boated in shallow waters off Waretown.
<b>Beach Haven</b>
A half-day charter on the <b>June Bug</b> tied into keeper sea bass among shorts tossed back at Garden State Reef North on Friday, Capt. Lindsay said. Throwback fluke were let go. Two trips Monday and Tuesday found lots of throwback fluke, a good number, on the ocean, but locating keepers was tough on the waters. No trips fished offshore on the boat in the past days, and Lindsay heard about a few tuna trolled during the day and a few chunked at night, spotty fishing. A friend chunked for the fish Sunday night, and Lindsay was waiting to find out how he caught. Chunking usually kicks in during late August.
<b>Tuckerton</b>
<b>Legal Limit Charters</b> fished for summer flounder on the ocean on all trips in the last week, and catches were up and down, but were decent in 60 feet when winds and currents created the right drift of the boat, Capt. T.J. said. The keeper ratio was 1 in 10, a good ratio anywhere this year, and most keepers averaged 20 inches. Sea bass were mixed in when trips fished at the reefs and such structure. A tuna trip was already cancelled that was supposed to fish this Tuesday, because of weather forecasts. T.J. heard about a bunch of tuna caught lately, but no reliable reports to say exact locations. Open-boat trips or shared charters are sailing for flounder on available dates when no charter is booked and enough anglers want to go, and see the online <a href=" http://www.legallimitcharters.com/c-11-open-boat.aspx" target="_blank">Open Boat/Shared Charter Schedule</a>. The trips usually sail on available Tuesdays and Thursdays but will run on other days in the immediate future, because Tuesdays and Thursdays are booked for the moment.
<b>Mystic Island</b>
Croakers showed up in the ocean, and more than an isolated catch was batted down, the report on <b>Scott’s Bait & Tackle</b>’s Web site said. Pods of the fish were located in 40 feet off the southernmost of the two towers on Long Beach Island on Saturday, but croakers can be on the move, and looking for them might be necessary. In past years 18- to 25-foot depths in the ocean from Little Beach to Wreck Inlet was a place to look. The ocean became the place to be for summer flounder catches last week, and 12 keepers was the high hook on one boat on Saturday. Deeper waters just offshore of Little Egg Reef was a place to begin searching. But results were mixed, and sometimes experienced anglers had trouble locating the flatties at all the usual spots. The fishing was a matter of covering bottom, and once the fish were hooked, pounding the area continually in short drifts. A 7.55-pounder was weighed in from Garden State Reef South, and a 4.47-pounder was checked in from along the Rutgers Buoys. A few anglers shared stories about exciting catches of kingfish on the bay, and the angling was turning into a fishery. Fishing for them was better at the end of Radio Road than at the clam stakes on the Mystic Island side of the Fish Factory on Saturday. Blowfish were also mentioned, but the shop was unsure whether any were decent-sized, and no blowfish were reported hooked at Graveling Point and Pebble Beach on Saturday. Small sea bass, sea robins and sand sharks bit, “which keeps things interesting,” the report said. One angler tried to catch spots in the lagoons on Mystic Island on Thursday afternoon, but came up with none. Fishing for all these small fish or kingfish, blowfish, spots, porgies and sea bass becomes a focus for locals around now. Boaters chum for the fish with clam, fishing with small bits of clam or bloodworms. By Sunday weather forecasts kept anglers home, and most customers today bought supplies for kingfishing, planning to fish in the sheltered bay as the weather continued.
<b>Atlantic City</b>
Winds currently blew, but kingfish, lots of big ones, snapped in the surf two or three days leading up to the weather on bloodworms, said Noel from <b>One Stop Bait & Tackle</b>. A thick population of summer flounder hugged the surf, pouncing on minnows, spearing and squid. Croakers swam abundant along the surf, chomping on clam. Tog, respectable-sized, could sometimes be lifted from along the jetty rocks, and triggerfish bit along the rocks off and on. Snapper blues schooled the back bay. Finger mullet and spearing were around. Fishing was definitely on, Noel said. All the baits mentioned and more, the full supply, are stocked.
<b>Longport</b>
Seas bounced around a trip Sunday on the <b>Stray Cat</b>, but the anglers scored a banner catch of blues and summer flounder, lots of short flounder, at the Cuma Lumps, Capt. Mike said. A charter from Reading, Pa., on Saturday waxed lots of sea bass and blues 1 ½ to 3 pounds, a little bigger than most of the blues around lately, about 15 miles from shore. Green waters apparently filled the ocean all the way to beyond 28-Mile Wreck. But Mike expects the current northeast storm to push in clear waters. Members of the Ocean City Fishing Club were scheduled to fish on the boat today, and another trip is slated for Tuesday. Both outings would likely fish on the bay instead of the ocean because of the storm. Croakers that previously showed up close to shore disappeared, maybe moving north to Ventnor. “But that’s Atlantic County, and we don’t fish there,” Mike said. Five-hour charters that fished in summer will wrap up after Labor Day, and longer charters will take over the schedule. “More for less in the off-season,” he said. An open-boat trip for tuna is sold out Saturday, but charters are available for the fishing. Catch a special low, discounted rate for charters for croakers and sea bass September 13 through 30 only. Sea bass trips will also fish offshore in September and October.
<b>Sea Isle City</b>
Capt. Joe Hughes from <b>Jersey Cape Guide Service</b> and <b>Gibson’s Tackle</b> wrapped up competing in Cape May’s Mid Atlantic $500,000 tournament with a trip Friday, he said. The trip went 1 for 3 on white marlin and caught some mahi mahi. The outing and his two previous ones in the tournament that week fished in the deep at Poorman’s Canyon. Afterward Joe moved a boat to Florida, and he is available for boat transport! he said. He’ll get back to fishing for summer flounder, striped bass, sharks, tuna and other big game next. Flounder fishing was good on the back bay, and so was fishing for stripers on the bay at night and during the day. At night trips fish for stripers on high tides with soft-plastic lures or Clouser flies at places like under the lights at bridges and docks. In the daytime striper trips fish at dusk on high tides with popper lures or flies. The popper fishing, a specialty on the boat, becomes especially good in September. The shark trips, catch-and-release angling by regulation, fish for browns and duskies 8 to 10 miles from shore, a chance to fight big fish with less traveling than the usual shark trips. Offshore trips sail for tuna, marlin and mahi mahi. Looking ahead, Joe will offer annual charters to Montauk to fish the fall migration, and will guide annual trips to the Florida Keys, weekend packages, during winter.

<b>Avalon</b>
An overnight trip began fishing Friday in 40 fathoms inshore of Lindenkohl Canyon, where trips had been catching tuna previously, the audio reports on <b>Over Under Adventures</b>’ Web site said. Three knock downs were scored first on the troll, probably from false albacore. Then a 40-pound yellowfin tuna was landed. Bait that had been marked disappeared by 7 p.m., and the trip sailed offshore to the Lindenkohl itself, setting up to fish for the night. Fishing looked like it would be good, because a swordfish was released after 15 minutes, and a mako shark was released after 30. No other fish bit through the night, and not much bait, and hardly any squid, appeared. On the troll at 5 a.m., a longfin tuna was bagged. Then a small longfin was released, and two bigger ones were kept. On the way home 15 mahi mahi were caught at the lobster pots. The captain wished the trip had seen more action, but a good catch of the longfins and mahi mahi was taken. A short, 12-hour trip fished on another boat from Over Under on Saturday, first running to 30 to 40 fathoms inshore of Wilmington Canyon, an area practical to fish in limited time. Only a little life was found in the waters, and a wahoo bit but got off. A floating log was found later, and mahi mahi attacked but missed the trolling spread on three passes. The trip moved toward the other side of the canyon, and three white marlin were raised but jumped off. The boat was motored back inshore, and the same floating log was found, and mahi mahi again attacked but missed on three passes. Another area was found with life including porpoises that looked good, but no fish bit. Some time while the trip was coming back inshore, mahi mahi were trolled to put fish in the box. But the trip was a long day. On Friday another trip began fishing inshore of Lindenkohl Canyon, and bait filled the waters, and birds worked the bait. A bunch of fish bit, and several small yellowfins were released. Then a 40- to 50-pounder and a 60-pounder were bagged. The trip moved off to the Continental Edge at Carteret Canyon, because the anglers wanted to look for white marlin. A white was missed right away, and that was the only white that showed up. The trip worked around the Carteret then moved up the line to South Toms Canyon. A bunch of boats fished there, but none was catching. The trip moved back to the Carteret, hooked 12 to 15 mahi mahi at the lobster pots, and spent the night. A small yellowfin was chunked right away, and no other fish bit through the dark. The crew heard no reports about a substantial bite happening elsewhere that night. In the morning the trip trolled 3 hours, missing one bite, boating a longfin tuna and landing a 30-pound wahoo, before heading home. Charters and <a href=" http://overundercharters.com/index.php?page=opendates" target="_blank">open-boat trips</a> are fishing offshore.
<b>Cape May</b>
Anglers on the <b>Heavy Hitter</b> did some trolling for 2- to 4-pound blues, all they could want, at 5-Fathom Bank, with occasional false albacore, bonito or mahi mahi mixed in, Capt. George said. Trips also bottom-fished for summer flounder, sea bass and more. John Stoneck’s trip reeled up flounder, blues, croakers and kingfish off Cape May Point. Ryan Moore’s charter fished at the Old Grounds, catching flounder, including some good-sized ones to a 29-inch 8-1/2-pounder, and sea bass. Fishing at the Old Grounds, an area with rocky bottom on the ocean off Delaware, depends on unpredictable conditions or whether winds and currents combine to create the right drift. Two or three days might produce fish, and the next might not. But bigger flounder can come from the area, and sea bass can be part of the catch. Trips are available for all of this fishing, and also offshore fishing for tuna and big game, and call if interested.
