Jersey shore fish & invert collecting.

here's the tides for sunday---i'm planning on trying to get there around 9-10 ish...earlier if i can--this way i can collect the water/sand before any fish collecting
i usually go to the side where the houses are---opposite from the party boats---again, i don't know the names of the streets or exactly what it looks like---been years since i was there---i drive a grey hummer with black rims---and will be collecting water/sand and fish---so, if your around, stop
once the collecting is over---i'm on the way home to get my ' prizes' into the tank as soon as possible
Tides for Shark River Island, fixed RR. bridge starting with July 26, 2009.

Could we possibly get a name of a road...by going to mapquest or some other mapping program. I'm not sure if you are on the Belmar side or Avon side of the inlet. The one area I know of where we could possibly meet is Maclearic Park, right off of Rt 35 as you are coming into Belmar (from route 18/195). It is right next to a Marina that is right next to the inlet that exits the Shark River basin. If you come to the Marina (on your left), you have gone too far. Now if you are driving south on 35, you pass over the inlet, pass the Marina, and the park is on your right. There is a parking lot there (or at least there use to be one there when I use to sail in the shark river).
Still have my Seine net 50ft.
off that beach are floating docks by the small sailboats, good chance that attached under the floats should be northern coral colony's.

I don't know...they look a little small to me....the new regulation is 5 1/4 inches....I'll have to taste them to make sure...with butter, of course. ;D

Actually the new regulation is a minimum of 3 3/8" and max of 5 1/4" carapace length. These guys fell in that slot perfectly. And tasted fantastic, without butter.
sorry if i sound stupid but when you guys go to these locations. how are you catching them? i saw one person saying seine net 50ft. so your just throwing your net down hoping your going to catch something?
extremely interested and don't want to get disappointed going down there not properly prepared to catch anything of significance!

Those lobsters I got today came from a wreck in 81 feet of water, not from the place in Belmar.
still in 81 feet of water. at $47 a pound I'd gladly get ya one.

Better check your price again. $47 is a bit high

Not high at all considering it cost $95 to get on the dive boat. Divide that by a 2 pound lobster and it comes out to $47.50/pound so he's actually getting a break.
always hookin brothas' up, aint ya matt!
