Raritan river 6/4/16:

My buddy Tom hookin' up with small striped bass on the fly rod with a clouser minnow pattern. We caught and released small striped bass at multiple locations along the river today.

Very nice, sounds dumb but I never thought to wade for bass. I Ve only for trout

Andy was that you fishing above the queens bridge this morning at 7:30 ?

Actually we got a late start and went in lower than Queens Bridge. We fished there for a while then moved up to Queens Bridge, then onto the fish ladder falls. Caught and released small striped bass throughout the entire river. There was a young couple when we arrived at Queens Bridge, maybe that is who you saw early.

I decided to get in on the striper slam, as well. Here's a video of way too many small stripers:

I guess by fall they will get bigger.
