MFC Intra-Club River Tournament

Fished the Manasquan River and Inlet today from 3 to 6 PM for a Manasquan Fishing Club Intra-Club River Tournament. Had 10 shorts to 16 1/4" and no keepers. Also had a couple of birds and lost a fish at the side of the boat...did not get a chance to see what it was other than long and slender and definitely was not flat. Must have either been a weakie or a blue...did not fight much so don't think it was a bluefish. Water was cold near the inlet only 52-54 degrees, found 70 ish water further up river but no fish. The wind and tide kind of fought each other most of the time except in one part of the river when they combined for 1.9 knot drift.




The first place fish was 18.5", second was 18" and third was 17.5".
