Very wet night in the surf

[piemma]

Joe P and I ventured into the mess out there tonight. Just got in. Nasty nasty night. We had to hunt a bit but we found fish and they all had stripes. Strange bite in that there were pods of Stipers then nothing. Then another pod. It was as if they were looking for bait but there was tons of bait all the while we were at one of the spots we hit. Small stuff, maybe silver sides or small sand eels. Definitely not peanut bunker. There are lots of fish around but it is a search mission. Not easy pickings.

Not easy pickings.
I think ur getting boat spoiled already.
U should be glad to be on the water.
Water is wet.Fish don't mind.
Hunting em is all part of the fun.
was up last weekend for one night.
Seemed like u would get a fish maybe a hit
then u had to move.
like 40 yds to catch the next few fish.
They ain't thick or big yet but they where bites.
They keep ta concentrating.
4 nights this weekend.
Weeeeeeeeeeee.

Tony:
You are right. I got spoiled by the boat. Hadn't been in the surf since July 5th.

Looks like Ernesto is at least gonna bring similar weather for the weekend.
Good more for me.

Paul,
probably in your neck of the woods last night as well


sounds like the same thing i went through last night

picked up fish on consectutive casts, then nothing for a while, then same thing again

overall, it was a good night to be out there

the fish i took was grubbing...nothing in the stomach except lobsters (2) and crabs (2)

some of the mystery bait out there is squid 1/2 to 1 1/2 inches

Yup - like Paul said we got very wet with that NE wind driving rain right into our faces. Felt like an October night but just warmer.

Tons of bait in another spot - appears like its going to be a good Fall with all the bait around in different locations.
