Stripers pile in along the ocean beaches, boats join the action jigging metals and swim shads, and bluefin tuna blitz beneath birds from 2 to 10 miles offshore.

Big bluefin tuna blitz on near-shore bunker pods, 20 to 40-inch stripers feed along the beaches and in the bays, and tautog season is off to a slow start around the wrecks.

Stripers take live bunker, flutter spoons and swim shads just off the beaches, tautog season kicks off, and sea bass, porgies and triggerfish are caught around the reef sites out front.

Striped bass fishing is lights out from north to south, and tautog fishing around the bridges and jetties yields big keepers from 7 to 9 pounds.

Tautog fishing is exceptionally good from inlet jetties to backwater bridges, and stripers are active in the salt marshes and the surf taking topwater plugs, swim shads and chunked bunker.

Keeper tog are caught among the jetties, bridges and wrecks, stripers cruise the surf off IBSP, and the yellowfin tunabite holds steady in the canyons.

Forty-inch stripers take live bunker and swim shads, tautog fishing holds strong around the bridges and jetties and yellowfin and mahi are caught at the canyons.

Stripers in the 40-inch range chase bunker out front, sea bass fishing holds steady and yellowfin tuna are caught on chunk baits and butterfish in the canyons.

Sea bass fishing is excellent around the wrecks out front, stripers and weakfish chase mullet and peanuts in the marshes, and tautog fishing is good around the inlet rocks.

Tautog fishing improves in the backwaters as fluke season closes, and anglers gear up for the sea bass opener while gusty conditions and high seas keep boats docked.
