ISLAND BEACH STATE PARK REPORT
THIS REPORT IS FOR ISLAND BEACH STATE PARK AND THE SURROUNDING AREAS.
THE TACKLE SHOP IS NOW OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK FROM 4:30 AM UNTIL CLOSE WHICH IS 7 PM WEEKDAYS, 10 PM WEEKENDS.
TAMMY BUSHELL HAS PACKED IT UP FOR TODAY, BUT SHE WILL BE BACK AGAIN TOMORROW MORNING, SUNDAY, HANDING OUT FRESH PORKROLL, EGG, AND CHEESE SANDWICHES ON THE HOUSE AS
WE STILL HAVE A COUPLE OF PORKROLLS LEFT.
5/25/13 UPDATED 11:35 AM Good morning so far as we have had a 38, 26, and (2) 20 pound bass weighed in so far. The wind has picked up, sometimes it gusts
up to 25 knots, but right now it's a steady 15. Still good for fishing and the results show that.
UPDATED 5:14 AM Like a Fall morning today, but that's not a bad thing if you are an angler. Slow in the morning yesterday, then the wind switched to
the northwest and the fish started rolling in. Same wind today. Tammy just handed out her first porkroll, egg, and cheese on the house and we have another
surprise for all the anglers later on today or tomorrow. Come in for some free breakfast.
Yesterday's Report: UPDATED 1:01 PM The wind has made a dramatic arrival, but it's out of the northwest which is EXACTLY what you want right now. It will speed up the cleaning
of the surf and bring the bunker in to the beach. Very few anglers out there. Must be the little drizzle we had.
UPDATED 7:02 AM As I said earlier, the dirty water hasn't made a damn bit of difference. Fishing is RED HOT!! Just got this report of Facebook and a
nice picture of a sweet bass to go with it. Douglas Ralph on our Facebok site reports, "As your first customer today this early bird got the worm and a lot
more. Already got 11 bass including this keeper and 3 blues on plugs at first light. Bass were so thick I could feel my plug running into them and foul
hooked 3 of them. Awesome fishing so far today.
UPDATED 6:40 AM Other than the water being murky, fishing conditions are excellent. A lot of fish being caught and not reported. Rain early this morning
has stopped an hour or so ago.
