Hey, how'd you guys do on stripers this year? The reports I've gotten from my RI spies have been downright awful. :( A friend of mine reported catching exactly one bass and it was 15 inches. Another guy said it was dismal until the storm, and absolutely nothing since. And these dudes are wicked good fishermen. I've only made a couple of scouting trips down here, mostly looking for access points, but all I've seen are dolphins, pelicans, and eagles. Some of the pelicans were working, but they were too far out to tell what the bait was. Haven't seen any gannets, but I hear they're around.
well peter jay not a banner year for me......got about 20 bass up montauk with 1 blue fish in that bunch.....spring run was ok nothin to brag about.......had some nice blue fish in the surf before SANDYZILLA hit most blues were in the 15-20 lb range......then dead........took a trip back to the beach no birds no gannets no bait water dirty ......hopefuly you hook into some......good luck
I haven't caught a fish. I think they re damn near extinct. Or Very elusive :)
Although sandy was quite devastating it gave the bass a little relief along the ny and jersey shorelines.
But that's not where they need it :bash:
ya got to go fish to catch fish jimmy :D but i have to agree with you with the bass getting some relief threw jersey and newyork
