Striper Fishing II

Went out on the beach in Cliffwood Beach again on Monday. Fished from 5:30 until 7:45 and didn't get anything...again. I was fishing with my friend Brian and his friend John. We were using clams with a fisher finder rig and 4 oz sinkers.

While I didn't get any giant hits I did notice some movement of the rod tip that didn't seem to be from the tide. It may have been flounder and or crabs. After about 45 minutes of no action, Brian caught a striper about 22". Not a keeper but a fish none the less.

That was the only action the whole night and there were about 25 to 30 people fishing. Well, it's still early in the striper season and Saturday at 8AM the 2011 trout season opens. I hoping to better with the trout than I am doing with stripers.

'Til next, tight lines.....
