Fishing Townsends Back Bay
A productive back bay channel running behind Avalon and Sea Isle City with strong tidal flow and some of the most consistent weakfish action in the county through summer. This is one of the better spots for targeting weakfish on light tackle at dawn and dusk on the big tides. Small bucktails, curly tail grubs, and soft plastic swimmers on light jig heads are the standard approach. Flounder are also present in May and June. The channel runs close to navigable water for small boats and the structure along the marsh edges gives fish ambush points to work with the current.
