Riptide Bait And Tackle Fishing Report

Over at to Jeremy this week and he said that there’s still a pretty good herring bite taking place in the Harbor. The fish are showing a slight preference for smaller Sabiki rigs he suggested size 6 hooks for your best shot. Otherwise the striper bite in the Housy is still a viable choice but the bite is tough. The fish are schooled up in the deeper water as projected in February an this is when they begin to get a sever case of lock-jaw. On occasion a warm snap like the one predicted for this week can trigger them into feeding so this may be a good call if you are wanting to wet a line in the next few days. (thefisherman.com)

I hope everybody enjoyed their July fourth holiday and spent some quality time with friends and family. The fluke are starting to chew on the local sloughs and reef sites and most boats are easily limiting out on black sea bass 2 fish bound per angler . How fitting is it that we have shark week, and the shark fishing from boats and surf was excellent. Browns, blacktips, duskies, and hammerhead sharks have all been caught inside eyesight of the local beaches. It looks like the media is jumping on shark stories, however sharks are common when the water gets this warm and the baitfish are around. (onthewater.com)

As the croakers seem to be moving in now, attempt and tackle some the hardheads by ship or from the shore. Boaters are best suited to rig up with a hi-lo rig, equipped with size 1/0 beak hooks, tipped with squid strips, Fishbites, or clam baits, and dropped close to shore in the 20 to 35 foot depths from Ocean City down through Cape May. Shore established anglers can use the same kind of rig, and cast out off the Wildwood beaches or Cape May Point sands. (brigantinenow.com)

You go into each new fishing season with the understanding that someplace throughout that season most of some week will be lost to bad weather. Hopefully, the Jersey shore has gotten that week out of the way. Temperatures that didn’t hit 60 early in this past week were accompanied by some of the heaviest rains we have seen since Sandy. At my recording station we had 3. 86-inches of rain and wind gusts to 48 mph. Over that, pouring nearly 4-inches of rain into our waterways does a number on the salinity and that also can have a negative influence on the quality of the fishing. (pottsmerc.com)

One such spot is a riptide. Riptides are made by waves forcing water over the longshore sandbars that run parallel to the beach. The water piles up between the sandbars and seeks a way to flow back towards deeper water. It goes parallel to the beach in a longshore current till it finds a cut between sandbars. The current in a riptide may be very strong because it combines the force of some number of longshore currents as they meet and flow toward the ocean. The bigger the swells hitting the beach, the more water is forced over the sandbars and the stronger the current of the riptide. That s why swimmers are warned of riptides throughout periods of heavy surf. (newenglandboating.com)
