  1. Went fishing 🎣 on the Manasquan Inlet north jetty this evening on a cool, sunny day with a strong south wind and low tide. It wasn’t crowded. Only one surfer πŸ„β€β™‚οΈ ...more was there. Caught, tagged and released a windowpane flounder on my first cast of the day with a very old, stainless steel Jap metal. Then caught, tagged and released a 19” smooth nose skate with the metal. Caught, tagged and released a second flounder on the metal. Then caught, tagged and released an 18” skate with the metal. On my next and last cast of the day, I caught, tagged and released a 29” striped bass with my brother John’s homemade synthetic black and white buck tail teaser. After sunset, hickory shad jumped out of the ocean while chasing glass minnows. Caught fish 🐟 on my last 18 trips to Manasquan.
