| Here is one of the larger schoolies that was caught right at dark. Fishing was hot tonight in the Bay from shore. |
Just yesterday I had written about how the fishing had been marginal in the past couple of weeks. Well, things changed in a big way tonight for me as everything seemed to come together. A change in weather was on the way ( a good indicator of good fishing), there was a load of bait in front of me (with fish breaking for them), and the stripers were aggressively on the rampage. I landed well over 30 fish in a two hour stint. The fishing was especially hot right at dark with a fish or a hit on just about every cast of my Zoom fluke on a half ounce jighead.
Just what I had been seeing in the past couple of weeks, most of these fish were schoolies in the 12-20 inch range with a few larger ones in the mix. I had one fish that was a near keeper.
So, you never know when luck will come your way. It's a matter of getting out and fishing and sometimes, big things happen. Like tonight!
