Yesterday we picked through quite of few Blues in the late afternoon to get some Bass to cooperate. We finished with 6 Keeper Bass to 19 pounds and this weekend looks promising once the rain passes Thursday. We had mild temperatures Wednesday (near 70 degrees) and the fish were strongly marked...

Last night we had Bass under the Bunker schools and we saw Butterfish too! Fish were in the 36 inch range and willing to grab a 12 inch bunker. We got them on weighted shads and also Yo-Zuri crystal minnows as we were all by ourselves. This morning we had a mix of Blues and a few Bass. We do...

Our Afternoon trip was more of the same on live and chunked bunkers with Stripers in the 20-30 pound range and our largest Blue was in the 10 pound range. The New Penn Squall and Fathom reels are doing a nice job with 20-30 pound Berkley Pro Spec Mono and paired on the new Legion, Regiment...

We are in the heat of the battle with the fall season upon us off the NJ coast. Sailing out of Manasquan Inlet, we are into some big blues and Stripers are showing up in bigger numbers by the day! Water temps are still in the high 50's and we could be fishing right up to Christmas, "A December...

Want to get a couple of my non hardcore buddies into some blue blitzes from shore. Can anyone point me to a nice beach/pier area where I can make this happen? Willing to head out at any time, +/- an hour or so from boston. Ive heard of 530am blitzes around PI...can anyone else PM some options...

Tons of Big blues around off Point Pleasant, but the albies are really fun to catch.

I've been fishing the East River with a fly rod with limited success. I recently saw a video where someone argued strongly that in fast water, like the East River, Stripers, and I guess blues, will be on the bottom where the current is slower. I always thought stripers like very fast water, and...

Hey guys, I know this is a stripers forum, but there's a lot of football bluefin tuna chasing big blues right off hardings ledge and around graves light the past few days. It's pretty great to see, just wanted to give you all the heads up if you wanted to try something different.

:drive:Hit the beach last night and wasted like $50 worth of Gulp shad. No Bass!!!

Below is a link to a rather insane video of bluefish slamming topwater plugs in slow motion: My apologies if you'all have seen it...

Ok i really love to jig whether fluke, bass, blues or anything. I have had plenty of luck jigging up blues but never bass. I use ava 17,27&47 as well as krocs. This may seem like a dumb question but i rather be safe than sorry when jigging bass do i jerk my rod up hard so the jig comes...
