Lump off the New Jersey coast
The eastern of two Corson Inlet lumps, covering approximately 16 acres at 2 nautical miles southeast of the inlet. Nearly identical in size and character to its western companion, this feature provides additional relief that draws fish to the area in combination with the adjacent lump. Bluefish and bonito transit these lumps in late summer while sea bass hold on the structure year-round. The slightly eastern position puts this lump on the outer edge of the inshore zone, adding access to migratory species traveling the depth contours south through Cape May County. Sea Isle City marina provides the most convenient launch for both Corson Inlet lumps.
The surrounding area is composed with lumps in the inshore part and plain in the offshore part.
