55 to 61

Got out of Shark River to cold water. Started first drift in 55 degree water. Couple of shorts in 40 foot, moved to 65 foot nothing. Took a ride north to Long. Branch and finally had 58 degree, startled with some shorts and finally a keeper. Water warmed to 60 and the fish started to become more active.
In 2 hours our 4 man crew boxed 7 to 4 lbs,, 45 to 50 foot, air temp on water was cool could have used long sleeves.
Pleasure having Dales and Mike as part of today’s crew.
This weather pattern looking like more cold water this weekend,
