Around New Jersey, late August and on into September finds a proliferation of many different types of baitfish. Spearing, Bay Anchovies (aka 'rainfish' because of the way they spray out of the water when a predator slashes into their schools), Juvenile Menhaden (aka 'peanut bunker'), Snappers (juvenile bluefish...rapidly growing and themselves turning into little voracious predators), Mullet, plus a miriad of other less known and less important species.
The coastal estuaries and salt portions of rivers become alive with all sorts of activity and this leads to some great, relaxing times angling with rod and reel.
