There must be a lot of dissapointed woman in NJ

[Taxman]

Based upon what the guys decided were 9 inch porgies without measuring😂
Took a nonsponser out for a bottom fishing trip
Broke manasquan inlet to find lake like conditions
Saw 2 dolphin leaping
Took a leasiurely hour and 15 minute ride to the shrewsbury rocks
I have never targeted porgies in nj before so was surprised to be able to talk to a woman on beach. Lol

Slow start many 8 to 9 inch porgies and 3 inch sea bass
Made a number of moves slowly moving deeper
Finished day with bucket full
Threw back equal number
Some real nice sea bass

Ton of bergals
Trigger won pool
Fluke second
Only saw 2 triggers on my side
Did not see any dogs or sea robins
1 7 pound blue caught


Some

the way you describe the trip you must have been on a party boat. seems like the charter boats are getting into bigger fish as they are more able to fish smaller spots that may hold bigger fish as i believe fish of about the same size tend to school together.

I had 24 nice sized porgies and a blackfish Saturday on the paramount.

Right now certain areas are holding bigger fish. Not so much smaller pieces but just different ones. A 9 inch porgy is pretty easy to catch as you get to the tip of the tail stretched out.
