Title: locations after sandy
Post by: overbite on February 05, 2013, 08:28:38 AM
 5hrug. when we head back to fishing many locations will have changed. Most for the worst, In my travels along the coast line bay and ocean, Much has changed from access to conditions, The surf access is deferent town to town. water features also,  Boating will have many challenges , Docking .launching, The biggest one being Navigation .Channels have changed big time. With shallows, sand bars, to god only knows what's under the water to hit or wrap around your props.  many of the beaches and shore lines I fish are in bad but fishable condition ,  Pass along what you see or encounter,  Bill

I agree OB, its definitely going to be different on the water. I remember one trip we were on, I think the TOG trip my brighter and I went on; the entire line by the hook was changed. It looked to me like it came out much further and further to get around. There was that boat stuck bow first too...I wonder if its still there. I wont lie, I am nervous as anything to put MR FISH back in especially after reading your one post about POGOS and such. I wish we had a lil positivity as far as the boating will go this season.  :-\

Don't forget that Old Orchard light is rolling around out there somewhere.

See that's what I mean. They ( who ever they are) know that went down so why wouldn't someone try to pull out some of it if they could? I would think safety on the water would be the CG's first thought. I dunno, I guess I am askin for to much.  :-\

So if that's true Al, why isn't anyone tryin to pull it up and out? How deep is it? Maybe they are leaving it as a artificial reef? I don't know....just makes me nervous to be out there with all the stuff in the water. How do you guys think the fishing will be?  :headscra:

RB is generally pretty deep except for some areas behind Sandy Hook. I'd be more worried in places like Barnegat bay where channels and bars will have shifted.

clp There is the positivity I was looking for! Grassy Asss...  ;D Not that I want any of the bays to be in bad shape, but I am partial to the RB.  ;D
