The bite is on in Atlantic City, and it’s been a great week for anglers of all levels. Whether you’re casting from the jetty, the surf, or heading out by boat, there’s plenty of action to keep rods bent and coolers full.

Right now, we’re seeing a strong run of croakers, and they’re hitting hard on bloodworms and salted clams. These fish are plentiful and fun to catch — a great target for families and kids just getting into the sport. You can find them along the jetties and surf, especially during the incoming tide.

There are still lots of fluke in the area, with many anglers reporting keepers in the mix. Try using Gulp baits, bucktails, or spearing rigs near the rock piles and inlet. The best action has been early in the morning or just before sundown. The water temps are up, and the flounder are active.

Weakfish are also around in good numbers. Look for them around deeper holes and channels using soft plastics or small jigs. They’re not always easy to land, but when you hook into one, it’s worth the effort. Some snapper blues have made their way in too, chasing baitfish close to shore and hitting just about anything flashy.

The summer fishing season is in full swing, and the fish are biting. If you need gear, bait, or just some friendly advice, stop in and see us at One Stop Bait & Tackle on Atlantic Ave. We’re always here to help you get hooked.
