Just 14 days from this video release to the final day of New Jersey’s 2024 fluke season; hope you’re ready to fill the freezer. On this 9/12 we take a moment to reflect back, 23 years ago, upon the events of 9/11. In his weekly tease video posted to The Fisherman’s Facebook page this morning Jim Hutchinson stumbles upon a sand eel washed up along the beach just after dawn, with bait schools popping up all over. We talk fluke to start the week with late inning tips on Open Boat, then dive into the midrange and offshore tuna grounds with NOAA Marine Weather update for the weekend ahead. Exotics in the mix this week which includes those hardtails on the beach, another quick look at the September edition of The Fisherman Magazine, and our weekly visit with the Pocono Outdoors Guy for a freshwater update. Terra firma tautog tips with a local young gun, and a quick summary of last week’s meeting of the New Jersey Marine Fisheries Council. Say it ain’t so Joe!
