Mark Presto was catching shorts in the rip when he spotted a very dark cloud of birds working out in between the channels. When he got there the birds were on the move so he threw out umbrella rigs. Before he knew it he was into some serious action. Fishing alone he had double double headers up to 33" with some blues mixed in. He jigged some also as they were chasing the rubber shads right to his boat. He was between the 4 and 6 buoy.
Blackfish season is now open since Sunday. Althought the weather has kept most at the dock, the few days that wrer decent for some provided excellent results. Capt. Chris Devereaux went blackfishing on Monday and was excited by the big fish and the non-stop action on the reef he anchored up on. He is hoping that the big fish will continue to bight from now until New Years. The new owner of the K-Kat fishing charter boat and former dock employee of Bahrs Landing is booking trips. 732-567-3289
