Galloway, New Jersey

Epic rat session today. Slammed 6 fish in an hour. I’m making the ASMFC look bad catching all these small stripers that “don’t exist”.

I caught 2 schoolies on 7” invinciblejigs paddle tail and 3/4oz white invinciblejigs head in 5 casts on my way into work. Guys soaking bloodworms for hours without a nibble.

Throwback fluke out in the great bay. I didn’t even notice he was on. Caught it on a shrimp gulp.

Big ol’ doormat on a breath hold

Threw this rapala slow sinking twitch bait as a last ditch effort. Tossed it by a piling. Let it sink. Completely forgot about it for at least a minute. Checked phone. Gave one small jerk and it was already on. Thought a snag at first on light freshwater gear. Then it started peeling line :) game on.

My first ever Flounder from my first ever chartered boat fishing trip! 🎣🐟
