Default Saturday Raritan Bay Stripers

Finally had a decent weather window on Saturday so me and Joey Dah fish headed out for some long overdue fishing therapy Saturday afternoon.

No birds and scattered marks so we decided to anchor up out in the middle of the bay in 20 feet of water or so and live line some bunker.

Had to sort through several big gator Blues but once the tide turned and started running we managed 3 nice Stripers... These 2 taped out at 40 inches and the other was around 36, all released to fight another day.

Good to be back out on the water and spend some time with my long lost brother. He's just now recovering from a bad case of Blackfish fever which put him out of contact for several months

No bunker close to home that I saw. Everyone seemed to be headed over to the NY side to fill their live wells
