Southpaw 5/16
« on: May 17, 2009, 11:46:04 AM »
Left Shark River around 8:30 with Liz, and Gary. Slowly headed north due to low visibility, decided to try trolling a little while with no results. Arrived at the hook and anchored up at Flynn's Knoll. Fished with clams and about a half an hour into it Liz hooks up with her first striper ever. A well fought battle puts a nice 30" in the box. With no further action decided to move to Romer Shoal. rougher conditions and no action went back to Flynn's, were Liz puts another striper in the box and Gary lands a blue. Heavy fog and a strong head wind made for a long trip back to Shark River. Sorry no pictures having trouble attaching them.
A good day of fishing is better than a bad day of fishing. A bad day of fishing is better than a good day of work. That means work sucks!
