Skunk - suggestion: follow the party and charter boats.
These guys fish every day, and communicate together. Many times when deciding whether to fish north or south, it will pay to head in the same direction. Not all the time, but many times.
Then when the party boats are set up, fish around them, with Stripers, sometimes the fish are close, spooked just a 1/4 mile away or so. With fluke, it can be quite helpful doing the same.
I'm not one to fish with the fleets - I find my own spots, but I also realize these guys fished days before me and have an idea where the fish may be schooling up.
I've trolled widely around party boats that were jggiing - and I'm hooking up while they are just picking a few at best. It can increase your percentages.
