It’s the day before Christmas and the ‘Big Man’ is in the hot seat this week for our cold weather predictions for the weekend ahead. Suffice to say, jumbo tautog, humpback sea bass and slab porgies are all in the mix this week for the charter and head boats running along the Jersey Shore, though word is there are still striped bass to be found off the beaches from Cape May down the Delaware Coast. Jenni has some tautog jigging tips in Open Boat this week, Santa has some last minute gift ideas from The Fisherman Magazine, we have a lineup of local events coming up in the New Jersey, Delaware Bay region, plus George has the freshwater rundown this holiday week. Wrap up the week with news headlines and mea culpas from the world of recreational fishing. Merry Christmas from all of us at The Fisherman Magazine.
