FISH STIX - Savage Striper Fishing on Jigs!! 11/11

[Fish Stix]

Well finally, the bass are here. Very, very close to home. Broke the inlet and was headed north when we saw a CLOUD of birds southeast about a mile. Turned around and when we pulled up .... Readings out the ass. Bass all up top for about a mile. Instantly 2-3 fish on. Turning the handles worked best. Fish ranged from just under 28" to 25#. Limit of bass by 7:15am. Ran to the north a couple miles and there they were again. Couple on immediately. Broke up and went togging around 8-8:30am. Ughhhh, tough blackfish bite today. Only some shorts and 5 nice keepers on 2 local drops. Picked up and looked for bass on the ride home and BAM, 2 on the second the boat stopped. Caught some more nice fish keeping our boat limit and releasing the rest. Had a short or 2 and only 2 blues all day. VERY VERY GOOD FISHING! Bass breaking water almost all day. Every fish we caught today were on jigs, needles, plastics, etc. finally some nice fishing in our area after countless miles and hours of searching or seeing bass that don't eat! Finished our day with 16 Stripers to 25# and 5 quality blackfish. Cancelled tomorrow. OPEN BOAT WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY STRIPERS AND BLACKFISH. See you soon!

Nice job guys.

Kris and Darren - what a great time. My arms felt like they wre going to fall off. Never thought I would get one on the needle fish, but sometimes you never know. Hope to get out again with you soon. Great captain and mate for anyone looking to have fun and cath some fish.

Mike, OUTSTANDING job on the bass! You had at least 8 or 9 nice fish! Mr. High Hook! Like I said, karma!

Mike handed his rod off, a couple weeks ago, to a young girl. Turns out I think that would have been mikes only bass for the day. Comes out on this trip and puts on a show.

Nice job Mike.

Great job Capt. Thanks for the report. Be nice not to have to make those long runs in the dark. Be nice to save some gas too..
