Stripers are biting, Raritan Bay

[Hunter 2]

Some reports are out there of keeper Stripers being weighed in at local Raritan tackle shops. Also shorts around too on clams and worms. Water temps at the Keansberg gate have been up and down from 38 to 45 degrees the last few days.

Time to get the batteries into the dirty shrimp and get her heart pumping again!

Thanks for the info

How is the old "tennis elbow" doing?

[shrimpman steve]

Not 100%. But better. Thanks!

For joint pain, my cousin a trainer recommended concentrated tart cherry juice. I have had bad elbow pain. It helped. Health stores have it. I mix a couple tablespoons with a large glass of water twice a day and it worked. It helps sleep too. Check it out.. Good luck..

Time to shake off the cobwebs and get the cover off the ride.

I visited a number of popular R.B. striper spots today just for a look see. There was no one fishing in the spots I checked. It could have been a tide thing. The Belford boats were dragging crabs in Sandy Hook Bay though. Their season closes on March 31st. The boats at the co-op were offloading many bushels of them. With all that mud stirred up, it might be a place to look for flounder.

" There was no one fishing in the spots I checked. It could have been a tide thing." Do the fishermen come in with the tide?

Top of the tide is usually best in the early spring surf fishing for the Bay Shore area.

Only Alabama fishermen come in with the "Tide". Communist fishermen come in with the "Red" tide.

Shorts were caught with bloodworms in Delaware bay this week. A netter got shad, herring, white perch and bunker. I saw a gull eating a bunker and a hawk eating a gull on the bayshore.

Yep. flood tide is always best this time of year. Water temp should increase by the end of the week too. Nice early season bite will be on.

While some are being caught I completely skunked out on Saturday.

Fished from Forked River to South Amboy with no love.

This weekend though should be different.
