First Stripers Of The Year!!!!!!!
redcrbrr, My Girlfriend and I went out to shake the cobwebs off and we managed to land 9 between the 3 of us. The location is heavily guarded at this point (Thanks Greg!!!!!) I can breathe again! We caught fish to 16" on small rubber.
Here is a pic of our first two... seconds from being a double hook up!

Those are small fish so they're just using little schoolie rods. You usually don't need a 12 footer for little fish and in 99% of cases, a 12 footer would not throw the 1/2 ounce of lure you are feeding to the little fish

Right here: "The location is heavily guarded at this point (Thanks Greg!!!!!)"
 - Many, many spots cannot handle the pressure that talking about on the Internet will do to them. For everyone logged in looking at a spot, there are ten lurking - not a bad thing just a fact of life. So a lot of spots get mentioned and a lot do not... If they are fishing where I think they are fishing, that spot can't handle more than 4 people at a time... Just a thought

There goes the nieghborhood!!!!!  Just kidding glad you two were able to get into them see you out there some night. By the way these fish were caught in the Atlantic Ocean in Mass.  Sorry but this is a small spot and Red and Canalman have both shared spots with me in the past. |

what weight is it ? and how big are the fish, aks your self this. i have landed a 19'' rainbow trout on a 5wt rod, but a striper is stroger, i would not use anything under a 6wt for stripers.

If I don't have anything to do with the water, It ain't worth doing.

notaro-
as i said before it depends on what your rod is loaded with, and what the rod was ment to do. if your targeting big largemouth you might be able to use it, but remenber the parts on the rod arn't ment to be in seawater. so wash them very well.

Scouting requires leg work, time and gas  money ect.....do you give up after trying a spot once or twice.....takes several outings sometimes. Charter fishermen are constantly on the lookout for spot stealing theives too, their bread and butta.
Lets make it so that, even if you can read doesn't mean you scout. Keep names off da net. |

No wonder - no time for leg work, no time to waste trying spots, and no money for gas, and even if I had, I don't drive. lol.
Thank goodness for Party Boats. |
