New Jersey & Delaware Bay Video Fishing Forecast April 25, 2024

Choppa’ Blues & Wicked Tuna at the Jersey Shore While often called the pink moon, April's full moon this past Tuesday the 23rd is also referred to as the fish moon; in fact the New Jersey, Delaware region's native Lenni Lenape people called it a shad moon (shawanamekwee) for the return of that anadromous Delaware River target. But in this week’s video fishing forecast, it’s not just the shad, but now the bluefish invasion may be underway and the first trophy bluefin of the ’24 season – all 718 pounds of her – was brought into port in New Jersey this past weekend. Take a tour of Fairfield Fishing Tackle in Essex County and do a deep dive into the May edition of The Fisherman Magazine.
