As I said, I fish the V20 in Manasquan river, often just yards from my dock.
Usually I'm using 6 or 10 lb Fireline and a "freshwater" rod. Just a small jig head with a pink Finesse will catch stripers, blues, weakfish, shad and fluke. I'll usually add a spearing to the hook if fluking. I like to fish the bridge pilings, just get caught in the eddy and work it. Very relaxing on a weekday after work.
