Bay Bunker

[Salty Dog]

Netted some peanuts in Matawan creek before heading out mid-morning .Searched for adult bunker schools and found them by Keansburg .Tried snag & drop .Nothing doing .Did see large splashes from some of the schools of bunker that were around .Tried drifting bunker in the bay ,in a couple of the usual spots ,but had nothing going on .80* days aren't cooling the water off ,to trigger a bite .

actually, the outside temp doesn't heat or cool the water.  The water temp is effected by tides and currents.

Just this past June, the outside temp was 75 but a warm current front came in and the bay temp reached 80.. In August during a heat was of 100 for 5 days straight, the bay temp was only 78.

The outside temp only changes non tidal waters, such as lakes, pools, etc..

  Of course air temp affects water temps!

Good effort.

cold air cools the water. No question.

if the current is coming from a warm southern front, the air temp has nothing to do with it.  Every notice the water temp can increase 10 degrees in just a couple of day, yet the air temp didn't change.  Ever realize why it is freezing outside in the teens, and the water didn't freeze?  Its not a pool or a lake.. Tidal waters temps increase and decrease by the tides.
