I fished for a couple of hours yesterday (Saturday), using live minnows
and topwater plugs in a couple of creeks. Caught a few dink stripers on
the minnors and one blue on a topwater plug, that's all.
When we returned to the ramp, there were a few guys cleaning "hawg"
stripers. Not as many as usual, though.

You heading back up this way anytime soon?

Krause posted a reply. Have you killfiled him or have you forgot about your
recent whine:

"What does this mean? It means that the posters that I had kill filed for
refusing to post significantly on topic were now posting *exclusively* Off
Topic! They've finally reached the lowest of lows.... posting, polluting,
and
vandalizing a boating newsgroup when they have absolutely no expressed
interest
in boating.'

I bet you reply and show yourself to be a hypocrite. You have already
replied to a couple of his posts after you made the allegation I posted
above. ;-)

Fished Surf City in the surf on Sunday.

Caught 1 small whiting.
Buddy of mine caught a baby pompano and a couple infantile spots.
(they must have not listened to their parents)

I notice the game warden types can just come up and open up
your cooler without even asking these days.

19 smallmouth on Lake Ontario Friday night, using very exotic bait: Worms
wrapped around the treble hook of a blue & silver Little Cleo spoon. And a
big-ass Northern Pike last night, right off the pier, using a 6" bright red
Rapala, ripped through the weed tops.

Fish perfer Democrats.

Friend of mine with a couple others caught their limit, six stripers over 18",
yesterday fishing off Breezy Point in Chesapeake Bay. Just gotta know where to
look.



Hope they were a lot over 18", because small stripers aren't worth keeping.

It's been pretty slow for me but I got a call from my son on Sunday.
Evidently the blues were in such a frenzy they were not only running the
bait fish up onto Scusset beach but they were running themselves up on
the sand also.

.....and that's when the assult rifle is just the tool to have. Once, I was
trying to unhook a blue on the beach in Long Island. I needed longer pliers,
so I paused to reach into my vest. The fish bit right through the shaft of
the hook. Not the line. The hook. Not funny.

Ahh, yes. Some years ago, I was fishing inside St. Augustine Inlet in
Florida, and the fishing was hot, hot, hot. So was the day. I got a bit
loopey from the heat and about halfway through the day, caught another
nice blue and when I boated the beastie, decided to reach inside his
mouth to remove the hook (he was the first and only I did not lip hook
with a small circle hook). He bit off a nice piece of my thumb. So I
wrapped the wound with my fishing rag, duct-taped it on, and kept on
fishing. My poor wife was horrified when I got home. I was covered in
blood, head to toe. My blood. But it was one of the best fishing days ever.

Love them blues. Pound for pound, the best small fish fighters I've ever
encountered.

Better than Jacks? I've been snapper/grouper fishing dozens of times and
thought I had a record on the line only to boat a rather small amberjack.

Oh, I agree. Jacks are great fighters, too, but since moving to Maryland
from Florida, I see more blues than jacks. Some jacks, of course, get
much much larger than the typical blues, and when a jack is pulling
against you sideways, it's like reeling in a barn door.

I'd be glad to fight blues or jacks all day long.

Ain't nothing like a 9 pound slammer on light tackle - those beasties
are fierce!!

Altough, pound-for-pound, I'd give a slight edge to amberjack.

Both great fish to tangle with though.

I unhooked a blue one time caught on a steel leader with a rather
large hook and the fish went bezerk, the hook embedded itself in the
meat right under the thumb of my right hand. I threw the fish
overboard, grabbed a wire cutter, pushed the barb through, cut the
eye off the hook and took it out.

All of a sudden I heard this "thump", turned around and there was my
partner for the day, out cold on the deck - he passed out when I
pulled the hook through.

Pansy. :)
