Acres of stripers

Took the boat for a ride to the islands last night and found 2 1/2 to 3 acres of 15# to 24# fish all on top just making slight swirls s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g down sandeels. Not another boat came even close to them and they stayed up for two hours then the fog rolled in and I left them there still rolling on the top. What a crap ride back across Buzzards Bay in the fog at 9:00 pm.

Sounds about the same as what I did not to far from you, loads of small fish where I was, anyway it was a tight line, where I was there were tons of small bass busting in the rip right off the shore

BF yes 16 fish smallest 15# largest 24# I had eels but could not get a hit so I started throwing plugs. Nothing on a popper, nothing on swimers, same on most rubber then I put on a deadly#^&#^&#^&#^& and it was a fish on every cast for two hours till I left do to the fog. What a great night to bad the fog came in or I would have stayed the night.Other boats came around but not close enough to see what I was doing they would just shoot right on by and threw the hole.I did get the largest fish at the end on a PNG swimmer he gave me at the Mass. four leg last month thanks Chris.
