Went fishing š£ in Manasquan Inlet this evening on the low tide during a cloudy āļø, cold š„¶, norāeaster. Air temperature was only 59 degrees Fahrenheit. Too many people were there on Fatherās Day. I was fortunate to get a parking spot in the first section near the jetty. Manasquan Parking Enforcement was there. Nobody was near my rock šŖØ. Soon after I started casting my Ava and teaser rig into the inlet, the fisherman to my right caught a bluefish on a plug. Then he lost one in the rocks. Bluefish were chasing peanut bunker but it took a while before I got a hookup. The blue threw the hook then escaped. Late in the day I caught, tagged and released a 19ā 2 lb 7 oz bluefish with a plain hook Ava A-17. While walking back to my car, I saw a fisherman catch and keep a bluefish. A drone flew up and down the inlet. The ocean was very rough. A few boats š¤ were fishing š£ in the inlet and caught lots of weeds. I landed 7 blues and a fluke in 8 trips to the inlet this year. Took lots of photos.
