We’re off to a slow start, BUT, there are some fish around! We’ve heard of a few small fish caught way up in the back on artificials and we had one report from the West Bar on clams. To the west of us, in Jamaica Bay, it sounds like things are a little better with fish being caught on lures AND on live bunker! As we’ve mentioned, this is typical for early spring and with this STELLAR weather coming for this week, we should see some improvement in our area any day. People are reporting a ton of spearing, even some sandeels and bunker around the beaches as well as the bay.

We would say that clam chumming is a really good bet this time of year, especially closer to the inlet area. The West Bar, East Bar, Big Meadowbrook and Swift Creek bridges would all be good places to try.

As far as artificials go… considering the type of bait around, we would suggest the thin profile type baits such as the Bass Assasins, Slug-Go’s, Fin-S Fish and Tsunami’s. Bucktails and small tins like the Charlie Graves J8 are ALWAYS a good bet too.
