View Full Version : In a Slump
nightfighter 07-16-2006, 11:10 AM Not a single fish for me since coming home from Cutty......
Am I alone or are others having problems finding the fish? All has been from shore bt the way... hoping the kayak will help me break out soon!
BigFish 07-16-2006, 11:11 AM Same for me Ross.....sloooow! Got a few here and there but worked hard for them! Summer dog days are upon us!
Skitterpop 07-16-2006, 11:30 AM try bait at night :faga:
"uffah!!" 07-16-2006, 11:49 AM I'm the same way! Nothing, I'm ready to go to my other fishing style.
HAND GRENADES!! They work all the time! Out in Greenwich Bay the other night. The fish finder was loaded with fish. Everything I thru was wasn't even looked at. I always get fish in this location, but, never seen it like this.
MrHunters 07-16-2006, 06:27 PM yep... same thing uffah... lots of marks... tons of bait fish in the area. tiny if anything at all... watched a couple look at my sluggo today but they just didn't really seem that interested.
gone fishin 07-16-2006, 09:26 PM Same thing here - biggest fight I had recently was a humongus star fish from the bottom of the ditch!:gorez:
I haven't even wet a line since coming back.:hidin:
steve 07-17-2006, 04:09 AM SLOW---- at least around Gansett!
JFigliuolo 07-17-2006, 04:14 AM SLOW in SoCo as well...
Clogston29 07-17-2006, 06:10 AM Its been really slow for me up there ross. Fished 3 nights last week for two fish total. Had a few fish the week before but nothing impressive. No bait = no fish.
Rappin Mikey 07-17-2006, 06:24 AM Slayed em on pencils from shore yesterday morning on the Cape. I'll post a pic later.
Bass Babe 07-17-2006, 06:26 AM Tried to christen the new rod this weekend...didn't work. No fish, meng. S-B should hire a shaman, and all the site members can get together and do a striper dance, kinda like a rain dance. I've tried everything else already -- different hats, parking spots, tides, currents, rods...I'm starting to feel like Nomar, all the stuff I gotta do to ensure the mojo.
partsjay 07-17-2006, 06:51 AM Very, very slow for me lately.
chris L 07-17-2006, 07:40 AM I havent been

fish4striper 07-17-2006, 07:51 AM Bay is pretty slow as well...
RIJIMMY 07-17-2006, 07:54 AM been terrible for me, I've been trying new areas and changing my strategy.
Wouldnt you now it, after fishing most of the night, Im swimming with my kids on Sunday, bright sun, crytsal clear water, 10,000 people swimming,,,,, I see a 40+ inch bass swimming between bathers feet!
The Dad Fisherman 07-17-2006, 08:10 AM Picked up a couple of decent ones last week but haven't been out since wednesday. Was going to go out this morning but I frigged up my foot playing softball last night. Gonna give it a go tomorrow and see whats up
bobber 07-17-2006, 08:21 AM fished the Hill last week, for one dink. the guy next to me looked at the fish like he'd never seen one before........... pretty DAMN slow if ya ask me...
MrHunters 07-17-2006, 08:33 AM looks like your not alone NF. :)
spinncognito 07-17-2006, 09:46 AM Thursday, Friday and Saturday were all very good days in the local harbor with many fat fish. Know of a 43" 35 pounder taken. Sight fishing for some hefty cows using whole herring and a "twitching" technique worked quite well. My biggest was 35"- but 23 Pounds and very rotund- is that a word? For perspective, I caught a 40" fish that also weighed 23 pounds in June.
Sunday and this morning it has slowed to a halt...
spin
Rockport24 07-17-2006, 02:47 PM I got skunked on Friday night from 1-5am using eels and trying multiple spots, but to my surprise, my buddy landed a nice 37inch fish on a red fin about 20 yards from where I was fishing! So that gives me hope. Wierd thing was, that was the only fish all night, couple of schoolies showed up arond dawn, but that was it...
The Dad Fisherman 07-17-2006, 03:07 PM S-B should hire a shaman,
I'm Pretty sure that's Raven's Job :D
MrHunters 07-17-2006, 03:25 PM I'm Pretty sure that's Raven's Job :D
yea.. whats up Rav?
I went by your calendar and the fish didn't listen....
i am going to blame it on my skill i think. :btu:
partsjay 07-17-2006, 03:28 PM Sight fishing for some hefty cows using whole herring and a "twitching" technique
I wouldn't be doing that if I was you.
The Dad Fisherman 07-17-2006, 03:36 PM I wouldn't be doing that if I was you.
Ocean Herring.....Perfectly Legal.
And that technique works Most Pissah :kewl:
Clogston29 07-18-2006, 01:30 AM Found a new spot and a couple in the low 20s tonight. First decent night in a while. Hopefully things will pick up as the moon gets darker. Time to squeeze in alittle :sleeps: before work
partsjay 07-18-2006, 05:54 AM Ocean Herring.....Perfectly Legal.
