Vickie Campbell wasn't around yesterday, so Dan Steneck was forced to drive down to the Boathouse for a photo op. The striper wasn't weighed, as it was still flopping. It bit a jerkbait, which brand I can't say, but know that Dan lost another fish right before he caught this one and the fish came off due to straightened hooks. There's a brand with killer lures and bendy hooks that is sort of notorious for it in the surf scene. That one. Today Gage and I tried the beach for stripers and surfperch. Not all of it, but my legs say it was a lot of beach. Our pictures didn't make it on here because no fish were caught. As far as I can tell, the fishing is not very good unless you're Dan Steneck.
Rockfish opens tomorrow and salmon on Saturday. The wind is supposed to howl tomorrow through the weekend (and beyond). So, you can, except, you can't. Maybe next week?
Thanks Willy.Another one in the cooler today.Oh and the fish was full of Perch.

ReplyDeletePerhaps consider letting large females go especially when you already have plenty of fillets stacked up, Stripers are a great sport fish have lots of value remaining in surf, I let all the very large bass I am lucky to catch go, better to keep few smaller fish and release some of the big ones with greater reproductive capacity...
