Entertained family (re:non fishing :D) for 2 days so had to keep it close to home.
7/4 - Reach, TC, Knoll and Officers Row. Picked everywhere. Shallow sucked. Over 20 FOW best. Loads of shorts managed 2 over 18 for the table.
7/5 - ventured further north towards VZ then Coney Flats and Rockaway. Same MO with shorts and just over keepers.
Water dirty in close, cleaner to the north. Surface temps 72 up to 77 late day. Pink/White Gulp 5” grubs worked best. No dogs or skates at all (surprised after hearing guys at the dock) Cocktail blues tearing up rigs both days. Fish I cleaned all had empty stomachs. Bunker pods spread out all over not being harassed.
Slow cruise home and ran over some promising bottom I have to go back and investigate this week solo.
