nam1969 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Out front, MoCo this morning. Strong S wind and tea colored water. Waves were uneven and decent size. Strong S to N sweep. Plenty of white water, but difficult to stay in strike zone. Nada. No evidence of sheds. With this forecast for S and SSE winds, 15-20, thru Sunday, it will be gnarly out front. There has been a lot of sand moved around in the last 48 hours. Saw some exposed rocks that I haven't seen since replenishment (in the area I fish). One of my favorite cuts is now filled in, but others have developed. Will head down at low tide to scope things out. New stock of chickens and sacrificial goats should be arriving any day! snag777, shorelady1 and adams54 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nam1969 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 One thing I forget to mention; met a surfer named Corey. She was the only one out this morning and was getting the crap beat out of her, but she was a real trooper. Waves were mushy and she was staying close to shore. Hasn't been surfing long, but has that doggit determination. Wished her luck, Nice young woman. snag777 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowwwride Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Went out and did some bait and wait today up north. Was feelin lazy as hell, didn't feel like throwing plugs. Just wanted to park my ass in the sand for a while. Met some cool dudes where we parked our cars. No luck for me but saw fish being caught. Tonight looks cool with the storms rolling in and the (9:00 high tide) Smoke 'em if you got 'em, we're going down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewWaveDave Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 caught a 10" eel last night fishing for perch. Gonna save it and try to catch a striper with it. Any tips for fishing eels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC55 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Will follow what Nam reported. That SSE wind has done it's damage. Water temp was lower, getting dirty, more and more junk in the water, and have also noticed a lot of sand movement. I liked the rolling white water, but with the other crappy condition there wasn't a fish to be found. No love in the forecast so think we are done for a few days.

NewWaveDave Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Nailed the perch good on grass shrimp. Had a kind fellow a few days ago demonstrate the proper way to hook them, now it's been fish galore. The bite on bloodworms for the perch has seemed to slow down a bit here in Cumberland, grass shrimp seem the key. Saw what I believe to be perch ripping through what I believe to be smelt at an inflow last night. Cool to watch. snag777 and Compulsion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustySwivel Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Skunkalottapuss last night, out back MOCO. Back at it this PM for the big high. Storms rolling in should make it fun, at least the clouds will bock the full moon. Edited April 19, 2019 by RustySwivel Sheisty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
