Caught some triggers this weekend 2 miles out front of South NJ. They are tasty fish. Lot's of short flounder, Some Croaker, 4 weakfish all released, up to 14". Kept the Triggers and Croakers.:)

How did you find them? Not looking for your spot, but did you target them or run into them while bottom drifting? thanks

Best tasting inshore fish imo.:thumbsup: Keep your trigger spots guarded as they seem to come back every year.
