I learned NOT to ignore a local freshwater river for stripers during the herring run. Went last yr and the banks were PACKED - guess these people knew something I didn't. Heard one guy say he sees more people fishing there than the Canal ..... LOL. Learned a lot this yr and started catching some respectible fish.
Started using pencil poppers in a non standard way for me at least: "walking the dog" works surprizingly well.
Break the mold - use to fish certain times relative to tide in areas. Caught fish when I though I shouldn't - go figure?! Go out and fish - better to be out than watching tv or hanging out online. :P
Lots of fun to trade/barter for fishing gear.
Who needs cash?!
I hate Mondays!
