last 2 trips
« on: November 16, 2007, 10:55:36 PM »
Was out on Monday by 500AM and went to the rips to drift eels. Hits a 32" bass on first drift and then just did nothing for 3 hours.....moved to the 12 bouy for an hour or 2 and still nothing,LOTS OF BOATS THOUGH...went to romars to clam and still nothing.  tried flynns and nada..went back to the rips and still nothing,,,still lots of boats though.. >:(  tried to troll some mannn25s for a bit in between all this and nothing.


On wed. I ran out for a few hours solo and managed to boat a cocktail.  I did have what was the biggest fish ever but i lost it after 10 minutes.  I was so pissed.  I have to guess it was 25-30 lbs...darn was I pissed.   O-well,,willl try again sat. nite.

Another day. t^

1 is better than 0 in my book.

I would take 1 keeper striper any day off the beach.

Trolling around the Shrewsberry rocks with shads has been pretty good. !/2 striper's and 1/2 blues..    Also used Mann's stretch 25+ Green/yellow belly. t^ chrz

thanks guys.  did another trip on sat. night and only got 1 30" with 3 guys. there were no currents at all :'( but no boats either which was nice ;D...  I cant troll with anything but the manns untill I get some wire line set ups. The last couple of trips i have thrown out a couple of manns as i go around the hook to get to the rips with no results but i will definitly keep trying them...  going out tommorrow and friday or sat. if the weather allows.
