While the Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4, 1776, the actual War for Independence would continue on for another 7 years until the 1783 Paris Treaty. Our Fourth of July weekend video fishing forecast comes to you this week from the Cedar Bridge Tavern in the Barnegat Pines, site of the final revolutionary skirmish in 1782. We look at the Friday through Sunday weather and marine forecast, before running down the Jersey Shore fluke action. Black sea bass (one fish) returns this week, and bluefin tuna regulations have changed for the better. We have our weekly Dream Boat and CKC update, an Open Boat tease, a freshwater report from the Poconos and a state boat tax proposal ends up on the cutting room floor this week in Trenton. God bless the U.S.A.
