Picked up my friend and got on the road at 430. got to toms river about 530 and waited for the bait shop to open. Picked up some clams and a few bunker along with a couple new lures. Got on the beach and headed south to the inlet. Tossed out a white sp minnow, worked it to about 10 feet from the wall and bam schoolie striper on the first cast. Released it and walked up a bit. made a few more casts with the sp minnow but no takers. Switched up to the Hogy Pro Tail in olive color and thought I snagged when another schoolie hit it. worked a few more spots along the beach but no luck. water seemed very cold still. drove back to the inlet for a last try. my friend kept snagging so called it a day just after noon.
