John Oswald
John Oswald grew up fishing the bridges, jetties, and surf of Monmouth County—from his early days wetting lines near the Sea Bright Bridge to decades of tracking the striped bass, bluefish, and fluke migrations along the coast. As a veteran outdoor writer for On The Water, John combines first-hand water-time with boots-on-the-ground intelligence gathered directly from local tackle shops and regional charter captains to deliver accurate, actionable weekly fishing reports for New Jersey anglers.
