You always have a way to bring sun shine to a post. As far as The Raritan Bay goes. Fishing will be fishing catching will be catching, The fish will be there they do not read the News. even tho they are in school ( I Like that one ) Drift fishing will be interesting, Last season some bait fish were at low levels as Peanut Bunker. Mullet ,spearing. so it depends on what the survival rate will be some spawned before some to come. It will be intersting to see the out come on Stripers. Winter Flounder, that winter there. From what I saw in Belford Last week The Crab Draggers are doing OK. And no shotage of other winter fish caught out front. Even a bunch Of very large Fluke ( Summer Flounder )they had on Ice.
I wold not worry that much something is always available.
For Me It will still be Catch and Release in The Bay Shore and area.
