Recon for NJ Stripers Sunday, 12/13

Nice !

I launched from Belmar, north to the highlands.

Massive early bird action, didn't see the jiggers hooking up so I went on the troll.
Soon dialed it in.....white shad umbrella and it was nearly constant hook up as soon as set up.
Double headers of short bass throw backs.

Then blues came in, and I boxed half dozen nice blues. I filet on both sides of the dark meat which gets fed to the seagulls. Broiled and delicious ( thanks to my wife )

Bite died off by 10:30 so I trolled here and there before heading back in at 1pm.

I do believe the FAT LADY IS SINGING for my V, but I may take a trip or two on party boats for large seabass and such.

Time to winterize the etec and then the long season of minor boat work till spring.
Thanks for the assorted New Jersey fishing posts. Nice that we share data.
