Angry I've got !@#$ing snow on the ground here

Winter wonderland.

Pffft.

I hope the runoff doesn't give the fish lockjaw where I live.

It's way too early for this. The last two winters were enough.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Just a dusting where I am on the North Shore of LI (directly opposite Bridgeport).

Ben, I never got Fred G's theory on the first snowfall doing in the season. A cold, miserable rain like yesterday should have the same effect, I would think, but it doesn't

That any measureable accumulation of snow lowers the water temp and sends the fish packing for good.

There's a tackle shop owner near me who gets the biggest charge out of it. He has pictures on his wall of him and a few others bailing 30 pounders after a major blizzard. You can see drifts on the beach

snow on the ground

Hey Chunker. Anytime. Jigs and porkrind are best now. Just leave the 10 bearing reels at home they don't work too well in the cold. Old green stuff works best from Penn. Tight lines and your right Let It Snow. That means striper season will be back sooner. Let the drag screem
