Hahaha, these fish are not hard to find this time of year.

1. Get in boat, start engines, cast off lines.
2. Go east, look for birds or fish sailing out of the water.
3. Get ready to be frustrated for hours.
4. Go home.

This isn't a secret fishery that will be over-exploited and knocked down by more boat traffic. It's literally happening up and down the NJ coast, anywhere from 0.5 to 100 miles offshore from now until next spring, on any given day. Most people that try it will not catch anything, and probably give up. I've done the chasing, only to give up and settle for some blackfish instead. It's a lot easier on the wallet and heart!
