I would like to brag about the baby striper I caught tonight.....It was the size of my plug. It hit and even took some line, then it felt like nothing. when I pulled my line out of the water what to my surprise was a baby striper with eyes way bigger than his appetite. I told him to go tell mommy there are good eats over here. :)

I wish i had a camera....

that ever happen to anyone?

Yes, all the time. I always tell them to tell their Mommy... ;)

ditto here. Ballsy little bastidges, aren't they!!

I get wicked excited when I catch the lil ones :kewl: If they're spawning we're doing something right! Right? SIze doesnt matter as long as they have stripes!!!! ;)

Talkin about small, Strider had one last weekend that was the size of his plug. Only problem was he was using a stubby needle.

Your right, as long as it has stripes. I was just as excited to see something there as if it was any other fish........OK well maybe not ANY other fish....but it was still fun.

i went out this morning from the shore got 1 fish , i had never seen a striper so small it was about 6" some of the macks i caught last week could swallow this thing whole , but its a good thing to see small fish hopefully i will catch it agian in 10-15 years :D

Sunday night

I was using a small yo-zuri
My uncle was using a 3"perch shad

He caught at least 6 fish that were 8" or less....

(the yo-zuri only caught 12" and up!)

;)

there is a size joke brewing.... I can just feel it :)

The cape was loaded with 6-7" bass when I was there end of May/early June; didnt find anything over 20", but lotta 7" babies on the backside....

makes me want to put one in my aquarium and watch him grow :)

I had know Idea that they were so bold. All of you not catching the fat ones feel free to brag about the tiny ones here.

IT'S NOT THE SIZE OF YOUR FISH IT'S THE SIZE OF YOUR ROD

THANK YOU!!! Got that out of the way.... I knew I smelled one comming up!

I cault some serious micro-bass today in the river....then some shorts off the beach....sure seems like a lot of little fish around....I can't get decent fish to save my life...anyone getting large in Ma.from the shore???? looks like the Rhody crew isn't having any problems

I feel your pain slingah. We need to go to the canal...... I need to just take the dive.

hi max....howz ur cell phone??? :tooth: pete told me bout ur loss....I was there yesterday and it looked perfect....just small feesh

Lots of little guys up on the north shore lately, especially in the rivers. The ocean front has been slow but there are fish to be had if you hit it right, I did get my person best a few nights ago, 44" long, I'm guessing about 32# (released = not sure on wt.). Hopefully it'll pick up soon. I'm wondering if this weird spring where it was warm early then cold for a while got the fish up as far as rhody and then held them there. Hopefully as things warm up more we'll start seeing more up here.
