    Default Fished nearly 20 Straight Hours

    Fished 2 hours before High thru the Low last night. Throwing top water . Fished Strathmere to South OC. NOTHNG

    Flounder Fished 6am to 5 pm today 20 TB's countless 6" Seabass.

    Highlight of the trip major bird play with 3 to 5 pound Bluefish on the incoming. Caught 15 plus. One as I was reeling it in was being chased by a 5 foot long Brown Shark.
    Shark was breaking water thrashing chompin at the hooked Blue. Blue got chopped in half.
    Left the Blues bite to get to my Striper spot before sunset.

    Overall WORST Day fishing this year. Water temps 77+ on the incoming

    80+ degrees back waters

    Did it. 3 times already this year with only one Striper night that was Very good but my Flounder trips have been Very very good .

    Typically if I got a high tide mid to late evening I'm there putting in 6pm ish and hauling out 3 am.ish.
    Only to get out of bed the next morning at 6 am (3;hour's sleep) fish the outgoing for Stripers and Flounder usually fish to the dead low.
