Sandy Hook, NJ


Location: Sandy Hook
Date: 10th June
Weather: Warm, 29, upcoming tide
Crew: Toon, Austin
Target Fish: Blues
Bait: Metal Lures, bunker
Berley: None
Catch: 1 x Blue, 4 x Sea Robbin, 1 x skate
Report: Summer finally arrived, so hit Sandy Hook for another blue chasing session. First casts out and we had nibbles, only to find out it were those pesky sea robbins. Moved up the beach to a 'better' spot, where reports of more blues were being hit. This was true. Austin snagged a good blue which put up a good fight. Caught off bunker. Casting metal lures out with eel tails, these got hit repeatedly, but couldnt quite hook up a blue. Need to sharpen those hooks or have smaller eel tail. Might need to get a few more lures, including some fluke ones. Was constant action throughout the day, didnt want to leave but had to head home. Solid session.
Rating: 8/10
