Not that the season is open yet but I know a few guys who went out in Haverstraw and got over 30 bass in the last few days.

Went out april 1st in croton. Caught a couple schoolies from 630 to 9 but than the wind kicked up and we left around 11 with about 5 fish landed. My buddy has gone out twice in front of dennings. One day he caught 20 plus fish, biggest was 23 inches. Bloodworms. He went out again today and caught around 15 he said during the morning run.

Dropped the kayak in and fished from bannermans up past denning and caught 3 schoolies biggest 21 inch. Water temp was around 46-48 degrees. From 30-10 ft deep. Water was pretty rough. Marked lots of fish with some bigger ones in the mix. Same on Newburgh side . 4/5/20

Beacon. Dennings. Bloodworms. anchored up in 12ft. Incoming tide this morning gave us only 9 stripers. After high tide we started catching
a couple of cat fish and perch in the mix. Tried drifting around 30 to 35 fow 15 to 18 feet down. Had one strike, marked only a couple of fish.

Been out a bunch since opening day. Nothing above 21" yet. All on bloods. No interest in herring chunk yet. Most action on outgoing tide. Fishing from shore between beacon and new hamburg area.

Me and a friend fished from shore yesterday and got fifteen schoolies. Getting a little bigger as the waters warming up. Biggest was 25" but an average around 21". Got a surprise run from a 33" 12lb carp on a blood. That was a first. First few hours with outgoing tide we couldn't keep up with our poles. As soon as tide turned bite turned to only small cats and disappointed to see my first perch of the season. Overall great day. Trying to figure out how to download a picture.

It sure how true it is but reports of a 28 and a 20” striper were caught at the Bruno wall in Troy this morning

Went out with my boys for a few hours and had the day of our lives. Landed 80 stripers, lost atleast a dozen close to the boat. Best fish caught by my oldest son. Boys were so happy and i was so happy for them.

Went to the posty this morning and nothing their. Fished over in Rensselaer today with some frozen and only a few cats. Was nice to finally get some lines wet, also good times hanging with my boys .

Was at the poestenkill yesterday around 4. You could see them in the water but almost impossible to land one. Managed to get lucky and get 1 in an hour and a half.
