Took another night charter out in the Shrewsbury River. Fished 1100PM to 330 AM.

Had Bill W., Lou S. and George F. on board, limited ut n Bass biggest 34", most fish caught were in the 24-27" range. Drifted eels and Peannuts............bys had a great time. Nice and quiet and calm

Sounds like a good time. I am thinking of doing this this weekend with the crappy weather outside.  Can you tell me how you rig up the eels and where are you doing the drift?  Also do you think jigging shads by the bridges will produce?  thanks.

Keith I use a regular fish finder rig for the eels, sometimes I put a 6" dropper on the sinker. Work the river from the Rumson Bridge out to the area of the Wind and Sea Resturant (can't miss it).

We do anchor and drift eels and peanuts back under the bridges.........good luck
