Well, howdy there folks! If you’re lookin’ to get yourself some fish down by the Raritan Bay, let me tell ya, it’s been a pretty good time lately. The waters are buzzin’, and the fish ain’t shy ’bout biting. Right now, you got a mix of all kinds of fish swimmin’ around out there, from striped bass to bluefish, and even some nice tautog if you’re lucky. It’s been a right good season for them big fish, too, so grab your gear and get on down here!
Now, if you’re wantin’ to catch yourself a nice striped bass, well, you ain’t gotta go too far. They’ve been swimmin’ close to the shore in the early morning and evenin’ time, so get yer hands on some good ol’ worms and drop ’em in the water. You might have to wait a spell, but trust me, it’s worth it when you feel that tug on the line.
It ain’t just striped bass out there, though. Oh no, there’s plenty more to go after. You got the bluefish makin’ their rounds, and they’ll fight ya every step of the way. But don’t forget about the flounder—if you’re real lucky, you might reel one of them in. And let’s not forget the tautog, them little critters are out there still bitin’, and they sure do make a good meal when you get ‘em on your line.
But I reckon if you’re lookin’ for somethin’ a bit bigger, you might wanna try for a bluefin tuna or even a wild tuna if you’re feelin’ real adventurous. There’s been reports of those big fish makin’ their way through the bay, so don’t be afraid to throw out a bigger bait if that’s what you’re after. You might get lucky and pull one of them in, and that’s a mighty fine catch to brag about, I tell ya!
Now, let’s talk about the backwaters a bit. There’s plenty of white perch and them little striped bass, too. They’ve been schoolin’ around, so if you know where to drop your line, you’ll find yourself busy reelin’ them in. It’s a great time to fish out in the quieter waters, especially if you want a break from the hustle and bustle of the bigger boats out on the open bay.
If you’re headin’ out near Hazlet, well, there’s a spot in the Raritan Bay Channel that’s been good for fishin’. It’s been steady with some nice catches, so you might wanna consider that. Ain’t no need to go too far if you’re lookin’ to get yourself a mess of fish for dinner. Just make sure you’ve got your bait ready and a little patience, ’cause the fish might take a bit to bite.
So, whether you’re out there for the big tuna or just some good ol’ striped bass, Raritan Bay’s been treatin’ folks right. It’s a good time to be fishin’, so grab your rod, your tackle box, and get yourself out there. The fish are bitin’, and the water’s callin’ your name! Happy fishin’, y’all!
