Notes

Fish were @ Spring Lake in the morning (Told by clerk @ Fisherman's Den)
Went there first, caught 4, moved north to find more activity

Found bass on top throughout afternoon, but it all opened up at 6:00
50+ bass on top crashing bunker in front of T-Jetty in Asbury Park

When that clamed down we kept heading north and had a couple fish on top to ourselves

Around 8 everything shut down, went a little south of SRI and found nothing

(Didn't find anything N of Deal)
