Nice

Cool

Cool I guess I’ll eventually get one. I grew up fishing stripers in Mass and still love going after them as they can be caught almost any way.

I’m sorry but people need to be slammed for doing ignorant stuff like that. Legal limit or not, keeping 121 of a sensitive species in the middle of their spawn just so you can make a few extra filet $’s is exactly what’s wrong with our fishing industry. Not to mention they didn’t even know what ...

They fish right outside the sweetwater river mouth, chumming sardines as if bluefin were boiling. I don't know how many halibut and corvina (and whatever else in the area happens to enjoy sardines) were hanging out on those flats, but there will undoubtedly be less of them going forward.

I had a good spotty bite going and then this guy decides to horn in. Too big for the net, too big for the tube, had to kick to shore just to land it, probably took at least an hour just to land. Released to get bigger. Got on a 5/16 ounce jighead and 4" clear grub, 6 lb test line. 26.8 lbs, PB, my ...
