 Last weeks Nor'Easter shut us down but this week as the weather settled we were right back at it with limits of stripers along with plenty of catch and release on almost all trips. The week got started strong with regular Joe Franke joined by friend Ed in sporty inlet conditions but with a solid striper bite the guys tuffed it out for their limit of stripers along with plenty of catch and release. Regulars Jay Simmons and Ernie Rosenberg were out with business associates Mark Hansen for an all out Striper Blitze !! The guys started fast out of the gate with action right outside the inlet under some bird play. From there we moved a few miles to the North and stayed with the fish all day long landing over 80 stripers even with the guys taking breaks from the exhausting action !! Ernie took" pool fish " honors with a stout 20lbs class bass with Jay earning Bass Master honors landing 40 + bass! Later in the day regulars Chris Spring and Karl Steffan were out for the last scheduled "Friday Night at the Fights" for this year . Thinking we would start right were we left off earlier in the day "At the scene of the crime ". The fish finder lit up with fish hanging in the same area and with confidence we sent down a combination of live bait and jigs to have the fish ignore everything put in front of their noses . Licking our wounds we made our way back to the inlet where the guys managed only a quick 3 stripers before the bite died again.Moving around from inlet to back bay still provided no more action even though the fish finder was lit up with fish in all the " right areas " all trip long. Saltiest Crew honor goes to the Steve Sweeney Party who fished in stiff North East driven seas[ Sunday] in sloppy 4-6ft conditions. The guys managed only a pick of stripers and blues despite good readings of fish under the boat. The guys boated a total mix of 10 stripers and blues with about the same amount being lost due to rough conditions. Way to hang tuff guys ! The last remaining dates for the 2010 season are Dec. 4,10,11 and 1 spot available on Dec 3 open boat. I would like to wish everyone a Happy and SafeThanksgiving to you and yours.
Best Regards,
