| Striper fishing lit up yesterday. Lots of bait has moved in and stripers of all sizes are on them. |
Fall fishing has really taken a turn for the better. Yesterday I found big schools of bait along the oceanfront moving about a quarter of a mile off shore. A fall run was underway as big flocks of birds were diving and fish were breaking for bait. Near shore the water was rough and white and stripers could be found in multiple locations right in close.
I landed good numbers of schoolies, slots and even possibly an over slot. I also caught them on multiple lures with big bucktail jigs, the float and jig and even Slug-gos working after dark. Compared to the doldrums of just days ago, it was terrific fishing.
I'm guessing the good fall fishing is finally here to stay. It's about time!
