Fishing Townsends Inlet

A shallower, narrower inlet between Avalon and Sea Isle City that warms early in spring and holds fish longer into fall. The back bay access on both sides makes this a flexible spot depending on wind and tide. Schoolie stripers and fluke are consistent through May and June and the inlet mouth produces on the last two hours of the outgoing and the first hour of the incoming. Bucktails and paddle tails on the bottom are the standard presentation. Sea robin are plentiful here in summer which tells you the bait is always around.
