Just a nice semi-overcast day on the Bay. Caught about 15 spot on
Berkley bloodworms and very small hooks, dumped them into the livewell,
and went in search of big fish via livelining. Caught a few blues, one
decent sized striper, but he escaped. Neighbor who accompanied me caught
a keeper striper. May try again tomorrow if the forecasted wind doesn't
materialize. Didn't see Herring out there.

Rain and thunder kept me in, but that's OK.... it gave me time to work
on the AM/FM/Satellite install......


Do you really fish for Herring?



Naw. Usually I buy a block of frozen Herring and grind it up for chum.


Here, though, if you put out a tiny piece of bloodworm, the Herring will
bite on it 20 times a day, apparently. (My filter collects headers, not
contents.)
