Hope springs eternal....

Requests for updated fishing reports (and more Blue Man Group pictures) continue to pour in. Here is the latest from Betty & Nicks in Seaside Park. This info may force me to go get my beach pass today. Larry - come on down?

ISLAND BEACH STATE PARK REPORT

Update from 1030 am - 29 lb Striper caught in the Manasquan Inlet on Storm shad. It's 54 degrees, Pat's out of town, boys are home and there is a very light rain falling. See you on the jetty.

Yesterday's Report: UPDATED 3:57 PM Well today has been a lot different than yesterday. Amazing for a January day. Had over 100 striped bass reported on pretty much everything small you threw at them and we had our first keeper of the year weighed in. A 25 inch beauty which will not be a keeper much longer. It was weighed in by Andy Smith of Westchester, PA who was fishing a 1/4 mile north of the Governor's house and was nice enough to let us take a picture. Tom and Jay from Philly landed 30 fish right here in Seaside Park on 9th avenue and perrenial regulars to IBSP like Frank Dombrowski told us they slayed them. Incrediable. Hopefully they will still be hitting this weekend which should be nice weather as well.
