Raritan Bay 10-18-14
« on: October 18, 2014, 10:52:11 AM »
Friday I took a few friends out in the bay to see if any Stripers were around.  I checked out a few large flocks of gannets working small baitfish. We dropped live eels on some marks behind the birds and had one bitten off by the head. I trolled the usual spots and drifted eels all over the bay and triangle.  We even tried up by the outer bridge and train bridge.    5hrug
     Water temp was 66 to 67 deg.  Still too warm

Ive fished the Naval pier at Leanardo at this time in the past and had good results. Nothing is ever written in stone though.
