Sea Bass

Make no mistake about it: when Flipper appears, fish vamoose, be they weakfish, small stripers and blues, sea bass, croakers, triggerfish...they know they are doomed if they hang around.

We had a great time once again aboard the Miss Barnegat Light yesterday for our 2nd annual fishing trip. Once again I joined forty Hawk listeners to do some fishing for fluke. We did catch as many "keepers" as we would have liked, but it was a beautiful day, and we had a lot of fun...

All this week and next, Andy Chase has your chance for you to win your way on to the Miss Barnegat Light, and do some fishing with the Hawk on Tuesday, August 20th. The boat leaves Barnegat Light at 8 a.m. Last year was a lot of fun. The crew is great, so even if you're a novice, you can still join us for a day of fishing...

Through June 22, it will be a 10 fish limit at a 12-1/2-inch minimum length.

The sea bass season re-opens this Sunday, and if catch ‘n toss ‘em action on the party and charter boats the past two to three weeks is an indication, it will be a rip-snorting rod bender.

Well, sort of. At least insofar as the summer fishery is concerned, as this portion of the season concludes August 31.
