For today’s fishing report, we have a guest editor, Blackcloud Bob.  His comments are in parenthesis and italicized below… It’s a sad day for Grumpys Tackle. (No it is not, it is a glorious day) Sheldon has moved on to bigger things, and today was his last day (It is about friggin time) (He didn’t originally say friggin.  – John).  Soon he will be shipping out to the US Air Force.  Don’t worry, they aren’t going to let him fly a plane (They should).  At least we don’t believe they are (And they should start a new United States Kamikaze...

This week in Grumpys shop news, like most other weeks, we had new products come in.  We had more Van Staal reels come in, including  a couple of the updated for 2021 VR series reels. These have an stronger main shaft, better waterproofing and now offer black as a color in all sizes.    We also got in the hard to find Van Staal Power Grip Handle Knob for the VSX reels.  These have been selling fast. The other big arrival was Berkley Gulp!.  Lots of Gulp!.  No, seriously, the biggest order of Gulp! Ray has ever made.  Both the bags...

We hope everyone had a happy, safe, Easter.  And we hope your bellies don’t hurt from eating all of those chocolate bunnies and hard boiled eggs.  Ray is regretting his choco bunny binge at the moment. Most of the shop news for Grumpys is bait related.  We will mix that into the fishing report below. In upcoming shop news, we have a big order of Berkley Gulp! coming this week.  Huge!  Best Gulp! order ever.  What’s in it?  Swimming mullets and grubs for sure.  You will have to pay attention to either Facebook or Instagram to see what else there...

We received a big order today.  Sixty five boxes.  It warmed Ray so much he totally thawed out since the last fishing report.  And even grew some hair (see the picture...).  We will have a lot of restocking to do, but should have it all out well before the weekend.  What did we get?  Wait and see, we still have boxes to open... Oh yeah, right.  You are here for a fishing report... It's been a blizzard since the last report.  The ocean has been in "Victory at Sea" mode for the past few days.  The waves are reaching to, and...

Fishing Reports, Sale, Striped bass, surfcasting, Winter Bass -

There is not really much to report in terms of fishing.  There still might be a micro-bass or two in the surf to be caught, but no one seems to be trying for them anymore.  And if they are, they are not coming into the shop bragging about it (and we understand).  Therefore, we are currently in a holding pattern waiting for the back bays to open for both striped bass and winter flounder on March 1st.  That being said, now is the time to stock up on tackle for the upcoming season, and, lucky for you, this upcoming weekend (January...
