Lets get some facts straight before everyone goes pointing fingers
Did anyone think maybe Just maybe that Shark River has filled in sooo much after sandy just like most bays and rivers and its so shallow at anygiven point of the day now. We have had sooo much rain , snow , and runoff that not enough saltwater is getting back there !!!
Hey but what do i lknow. JUst my 2 cents

there was a bunker boat working just outside the 6/10 of a mile legal limit for bait boats last night AFTER dark. was after 930 when I passed him
I drove way tight on the beach getting around him last night. He was def in legal water and even very well lit u so well it looked like an amusement ride at night and I almost took a pic as it was a cool site.
Bunker was spread out for miles from there and 25' thick .
I would have expected IF a boat tried to haul last night it would have been hard pressed to not have a maximum haul, as the blue fish had the bunker not knowing which way to turn next.
with the extremely low tide last night the water rushing into the inlet especially in the back is ripping.
so I think at current water temps, and super tide flow its even more silly to think that those fish would have been ox deprived enough to not make it back to the ocean where they had been swimming without issue other than blue fish attacks.
and there most certainly was not an algae bloom, as the signs of that dont leave that quick
