Medium-action spinning rods to cast poppers swimming plugs, and jigs are the best choice for fishing from a small boat at Raritan Bay.
Diving plugs, larger swim shads, smaller bunker spoons, and Mojos in the 2- to 4-ounce range work well here.
When fishing from a boat, pay attention to the speed it moves with. The boat should move no faster than 3 and 4 miles per hour.
