    • Reef Fantasea Fishing
This week  we started seeing our first significant waves of beautiful weakfish
to 24" inches and with bluefish and fluke readily available   and  stripers to
27 " from time to time,  a Barnegat Bay Grand Slam is just around the corner !!! 
Thursdays trip was canceled due to weather and with heavy rain with frequent
lightening forecasted we just couldn't take that chance it . Friday  mornings
trip with beautiful weather and  Larry Anthonssen along with grandchildren
Patrick [ 8]  and Daniel Hogan [10] were out for a slamfest with blues from 1-4
lbs all on light spinning tackle and BKD's !  Regular Chris Spring had first
timer fisherman and nephew Patrick out for his first fishing trip ever , we
managed only a few bluefish in the 1-2 lbs range before the nights end, but
Patrick got  his first taste of light tackle bluefishing !. The Ken Reed Party was out for the best weakfishing so fa r this year with all nice
trout to 24" hitting BKD"s and shrimp. The guys had a blast with constant
 action with weakfish and blues on light spinning tackle in the back bay !!
Best Regards

Thanks Guys ! They are a sight to behold for sure! I have been seeing these same  fish for about 3 years now and they continue to return and get bigger every year. The bad news is they are now of gill netting size and we maybe in for another dry spell in the coming years.They say they run in cycles , I think they run in    " Gill nettable " sizes, if you know what I am getting at.  Lets just keep our fingers crossed
