I learned when fishing off the RR trestle in the Hampton Marsh, not to walk down the sloped rock that makes up the sides of the trestle. I wiped out one night, I was alone, and it sucked. I went up to get my favorite nighttime minnow plug, and some more Herring (had 2 rods going). On my way back down, theres goes my legs out from under me. It was dewy out, and I paid tha price! lol. Lost my fave lure, bounced off the ledge, into the outgoing tide of the marsh. Under the trestle it went. Luckily I didnt fall in. That tide is pretty strong.
After that, I decided to just chunk the rest of my herring, cuz they were hittin it hard. A friend drove down the trail and met me soon after my little accident. We fished the rest of the bait and caught a dozen or so Stripy's between 15" to 24".
