Back bay fluking from shore 7/25/20

[Jigman13]

Caught the last hour of incoming, flood and 90 min of outgoing this early afternoon. Holy shit was it hot. After a 3 min walk from my car I was drenched. Slammed a bottled of water and started fishing.

1st cast as soon as my jig hit the bottom I was tight. Scooped a 19.5"--sweet. Next cast, same deal. Short fish at 17", though. Two casts later hopping the bottom and on again--scooped a 18.25". Four casts, two keepers. At this rate my outing was about to be 20 min and done.

Not so fast. The short brigade came out after the 2 keepers. Kept at it moving along, hopping the jig looking for the 3rd and eventually got it about 45 min to an hour into fishing. 18.75". Stayed fishing with a smile on my face.

Ended up with 10 or 11 fish, three keepers. Nothing huge but a ratio I'll take anyday of the week. White was the color of choice. Heres the sink shot. Started wiping them down and almost forgot to take a pic!

Real nice catch. You are doing better than a lot in boats. Is this Raritan bay?

[Jigman13]

Yes.

That’s an awesome haul from a boat no less from the beach! Nice job man.
