Monday, January 28, 2013: Totally crappy out there, as I, along with too many others, suffer from the dreaded flu-like symptoms. It has rocked my world – and I do look suspiciously at any number of carriers who might have infected me.

One of the weirdest angles on this bug is the lightheadedness, and teetering thought patterns. Don’t even try to interpret…

Location: New Jersey > Shark River/Manasquan Inlet > Offshore seabassing on the Big Jamaica: ice cold skies, red hot wrecking!!!!!!

Date: January 25, 2013 8:54 PM 

Posted by: fishhead1985 

Method: Boat 



When it comes to offshore seabass, two weeks is, for me, a very long time. That is exactly how long it had been since my last trip, until today. In a way, I am almost embarrassed to say that, although I've been on many offshore…

Honorable Christopher Christie;

I read a comment in Jaymanntoday wherein it was stated that Governor Christie excoriated beachfront property owners “Gov went after easement holdouts in his typical brash way,…

What's Below Can Sink You; Bullets Fly in Appreciation

I know this might be tough to compute but just imagine that I found your town attractive for some reason. I come there with some friends, park in front of your house, maybe camp out nearby – and I kinda make a royal mess. It comes with the territory – someone else’s, that is. And then I coyly expect you to pay for the cleanup.

What’s more, I like your place so much I’ve decided to come down every single day -- for months and months on end. A mess-a-day, as it were.…

Wednesday, January 16, 2013: Kinda crappy on a lotta fronts. Not only has it spritzed all day but it remains raw out there and the longterm skies are starting to lean toward some serious cold air by next week. However, even the upcoming sweep-in of Canadian-Polar Air is not much below normal. Looking ahead 10 days, another warm up is brewing.

As for the threat of snow tomorrow, it’s so minimal as to be a yawner. However, so many folks seem to be jonseing for the…

Sunday, January 13, 2013: Fogged day along the beach with a big swell running – about 5 – 7 feet and grinding. Still, it’s fishable and there are small stripers to be had, per those willing to take some time to have them. Not…

Sunday, January 06, 2013: Sweet day out there. Can’t say I’m ready to dedicate fishing time with a slew of off-roading option awaiting in the Pines. However, I have a quite-cool telescoping freshwater rod/reel outfit I’ll use to tease pickerel in a couple way-back lake-ish areas. The sites, only reachable by 4WD, are more like sunken forests, with stumps and ghost…
