Spots in NH?

I've tried everywhere I know in NH. Haven't got a bite. Only fish I've caught so far is a couple of schoolies off a boat at Minot's Light and at the Locks in Charlestown. Any help for good spots near Hampton?
I've tried the jetty, Markies/ Browns, Rt1 train bridge, 101 bridge, south side of bors head, and nothing. Worms, chunk mackrel, nothing seems to work for me.

Mort, they should just be moving up there. Things are just starting to heat up around PI in mass so you may have a little wait still. I've heard that the beachfront at Plum Island is getting good now...

hey NH. My grandparents have a house in New Hampshire too. they live in Rye, down the street from the ocean Try portsmouth, the is a bridge like almost on the portsmouth line, from this bridge you can see the "big" bridge that raises up and down for the sail boats, fish on either side of the bridge. here is my trick (keep it quiet)....go on which ever side of the brige that the tide will take your line away from the bridge, on the end of your line put a 6/0 or 7/0 hook (regular) with no swival or n e thing (tie it straight to the line) then you put a piece of cut herring on the hook (cut your herring into 4 pieces) you then let the line out so that the bait is about a foot away from the water (the bait drops straight down) you then attach a 1 inch bobber (yes a bobber, like the kind you used for panfish when you were 7) after the bobber is attached drop your line in the water and the current will bring it out little by little (you must let the line out by openning the bail and letting a little out at a time) watch the bobber closely, the striper will take the bobber down at an alarming speed, dont get talking with your buddy or watching the boats pass by, i've seen many careless fisherman lose fish by not watching.what i like to do is measure to wear i put the bobber on and put a piece of 60 pound test so the line wont get kinked. using this method i have caught up to 7 stripers in one hour from 25"-32". there is also a point write by the bridge that i like to fish off of. try using some bucktail jigs in the 1-2 oz size. well i hope i helped. i am 14 years old, maybe i will see you at the bridge sometime.
