went to the ocean grove pier on saturday and had alot of success . for the first hour it was quiet. but when the tide started rolling in, dad and i were hooking up every second. we caught about 30 salmon, 15 mullet, 3 trevs and 2 flattys, we ended up keeping 1 salmon 3 trevs and 3 mullet. it was alot of fun because usually the pier only produces small fish but that day we got a feed. i hooked onto something huge that nealry took my rod in the water, i had to hop up and walk around the pier as it was taking huge runs, it snapped me off but i think it was a huge trevally,
