Island Heights striper
« on: October 06, 2013, 09:52:24 PM »
Had 4 of the 5 kids out today for a little crabbing. Made a short run from the BYC to island heights, set the kids up and we were on our way.Kids had a slow but steady pick at them so all were happy.Son wanted to try his luck with the snappers set him up all was good, no luck  but we did get a visit from a lone striper, felt like we were being hunted  all he did was circle us and let the kids get a good look at him.....daughter tried to net him but was just out of reach .the little one said leave us alone and bam he was gone ...anyone have any luck with stripers around this area??????   good luck to all!!!!

In the early spring IH is pretty good for small stripers, must be a left over.

Your kids are too cute!  ;D Nice story!  t^ Too bad no snappers; they would have had a ton of fun catching them!
