Stripers Raritan April 10
 

Spotty fishing till now finally found lure they hit on.
Five fish three of which about 28-29

NW blowing 15-20 2 foot chop .
Quit at 10:30 am to avoid tide turn to against wind.

You got them, nice going. :nice: I never trolled, hate it with

a passion. :devil:

Really? My happiest days fishing have been trolling for dolphin in the Keys. But I never trolled for stripers.

Thanks Giorgio - hope you’re able to fish this season.
Your posts fun

Pipe - Trolling for stripers in the ocean is equally as fun.

Hopefully I will get the chance someday soon!

Trolling for Tuna is awesome.

my kid's been catching nice schoolies. 5 to 8 pounders. says the bay is stupid with bunker. i heard a few bigger fish are being taken outside.

Full moon this weekend ….seems to shut down the daytime bite, sometimes night too.

trolling for dolphin is 1000x more fun than trolling for stripers.:sun:

Dolphin- 80 degrees, middle of the day, cool beverage, 7 mph, 7 lines out, crazy fun fish to catch and eat.

Striper- 50 degrees, first light, 2 or 3 mph, 2 lines out, all the fight taken out by the motion of the boat before you pick up the rod, still really good to eat but its not dolphin:love:

Best striper fishing is livelining 1 pound bunker. You get the take of the bait, set of the hook, and all the power of the run. great fishing.
