Launched from keyport NJ municipal ramp and took a 20 minute paddle to Pebble beach in my Tarpon (against wind and tide, it only took 10 minutes to get back). I trolled a black bomber on the way and picked up the 23 inch striper as soon as I got close to Pebble Beach. There was a ton of guys on the beach, so there must have been some recent action. Trolled for another two hours and did not get another hit. I didn't see anyone on shore catch anything but heard alot of choice comments when I landed my fish (I think I converted a couple of shore fisherman to the Dark Side) Lost my only Tube and Worm on sunday in Cheesequake Creek and waiting for new ones to be delivered. Decided to try the Bomber (Black) after hearing reports of bunker in the bay. Be sure to wear wet suit and or wader/dry top water very cold . Released the striper to afraid to eat it after sewage incident.
