Best fishing I’ve had in weeks — slot size fish for an hour straight until it died down. Had (what a thought to be a 30 pounder) pull me 100 feet down the beach. Turned out to be a nice double header. So much fun. I was throwing a 6oz Hogy Shad a few weeks ago during the full moon and was fighting a fish for about 15 minutes when i lost it...Who knows how big it was...there was a strong current and with the wind...I was furious.

I am still kicking myself for something similar a couple weeks back. Hook just popped out. Everything else was good. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hook on the Hogy Shad is bent a weird way...I lost the fish when it hit the sand in the wash.I saw it splashing a bit.. luyber 1 SW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianC86 Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Bay water was very turbid, still some grass washing up from the storm, and pretty frosty on the beach. Didn’t think I’d get anymore from this spot this season, but was very surprised about ten minutes after sunrise I landed two chunky little stripers. Unfortunately for me the main gear on my crappy little penn fierce shredded after hooking up with the second fish. Not a bad morning AugustWest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stripsettter Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Had a handful of schoolies back bay north shore at sunset on small barbless rubber shads on my fresh water set up. Great to hear the drag screaming again lol. I did have one break off. Need to up to leader. Nite_Bite_00 and AugustWest 2 No Bait. No Barbs. No Buckets.

AugustWest Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Eastern SS, water cleared up a bit and besides it being dink city, managed to catch a few decent slots every dozen dinks or so. Guess there may be a few more days of fishing this season. Said_g15, fishguy62 and jps1010 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnedbalsky Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 Got into my own head this morning. Got there early, and got frustrated with everyone crowding around me. Then everyone started catching up and down the beach, but I was getting skunked. Spent an hour tried a few different lures. Finally I reeled my swivel through the top eye of the fishing pole and gave a little jerk to cast out a bit of slack (maybe 10 feet), and bam. Caught a few other shorts before hitting the road. Funny how you can get in your own head sometimes. Said_g15, ReeferRob and AugustWest 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnedbalsky Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 I didn't see any keepers this morning. Nothing decent for me. Looked like a couple of guys were working harder than I. AugustWest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterVetstripe Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 There was a keeper early morning 1 in every dozen catch ratio, I snag a small shark on the tail landed but really tiny though catch 5 shorty striper, but catch 19 yesterday all short, look like this is the new normal.
