HannesAT Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Hi guys! Looking for a fishing buddy (kayak) to fish for stripers around the Delaware Bay, Chesapeake bay, New York, nearby rivers and places worth traveling to. About myself - my name is Hannes (34, married), I am originally from Austria and am now living in York, PA. I moved to the US 2 years ago for work. I love fishing in the US because of the wide variety of species and great accessibility of waters. Up to now I’ve mostly been fishing for trout, bass, salmon and steelhead. I’ve been gearing up to jump into striper fishing this season. My equipment is medium to higher quality. I’m interested in both kayak and shore/river fishing but would not mind joining you on a boat either :D. My kayak is a well-equipped Wilderness System Tarpon. Mostly into spin fishing but open to bait fishing as well. Not sure where to get started with finding good spots for the certain times of year. During my time in the US I’ve been mostly fishing by myself and thought that starting with Stripers would be a good start in looking for a buddy. Let me know if you’d be interested and we can make plans. Tight lines everyone! Hannes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abu caster Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) Hanes herzlich willkommen I am down in the Washington DC area however I do fish the upper Potomac sometimes so if you are ever interested to meet up and fish. If you want to come down and do some snake head fishing we could also do that. I can also speak German if that helps. My father was from Austria. He was from Reutte in Tirol. What part of Austria are you from? Edited January 12, 2021 by Abu caster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannesAT Posted January 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Hi Abu Caster, what a coincidence! I'm from Salzburg. I would love to go snakehead fishing, have never been. My wife's parents actually live in Frederick MD, that would reduce the travel quite a bit. What would be a good time to go for snakehead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigred78 Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 If your looking to fish the raritain Bay Area hit me up. I’m always looking for new people to fish with. I should be back out there in March -April. Also if they have it this year the jbay memorial jamboree is a great place to meet new people. I had a blast when I went there. It’s a 3 day kayak fishing event in Jamaica bay New York. HannesAT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyice572 Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 Guten Tag! Youre a bit out of the way but if youre ever in north nj i can show you some great spots. This past trout season wasnt great but lake fishing near me is always solid. Im sure the water ways near you have alot of good stuff just a matter of varying the tackle and finding what works best on each day. Sometime the fish here kill my keitechs and somedays they prefer flashy spinners. The delaware river is great for kayaking and fishing and if you want to get into stripers take a look into a visit to montauk ny in the spring or fall for the striper runs. Youll need some good equipment if you go but its insanity. My instagram is mattymofukinice dm me if you ever are in the north nj area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
